Smoking Cessation for Depression and Anxiety Treatment
Completed · Phase 1
Conditions studied: Smoking, Anxiety Disorders, Depression Disorders
In brief
The primary aim of this research study is to enhance smoking cessation outcome among smokers with elevated anxiety and depression. We are comparing two group treatment approaches: (1) An educational-supportive psychotherapy and standard smoking cessation treatment, and (2) An integrated smoking cessation, and anxiety and depression management treatment program (SDAT). Both treatments also utilize nicotine replacement therapy.
