Telephone-assisted, parent-mediated CBT for rural Latino youth with anxiety: A feasibility trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

In this study, we tailor a child anxiety cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) program to fit the needs of rural Latino/a Spanish-speaking families and examine the feasibility, acceptability, tolerability, and safety of this intervention using 2 modes of service delivery.

Method

Children (n = 31; age 8-13) with anxiety disorders were recruited from primary care settings and randomized to 1 of 2 modes of parent-mediated CBT bibliotherapy: (1) telephone-delivered, therapist-assisted bibliotherapy (TTB; n = 15), and (2) a more minimal contact, self-directed, bibliotherapy condition (SB; n = 16). Independent evaluators administered a diagnostic interview at baseline and posttreatment; demographic and engagement-related questionnaires were also administered.
