Culturally Adapted Cognitive Behavioural Therapy For Canadians of South Asian Origin: A Research Study

What was the aim of the study?

As the first study of its kind in North America, this project set out to develop and test a new, specialized form of psychotherapy for South Asians in Canada who are affected by anxiety and depression. Its goals were to offer culturally adapted cognitive behavioural therapy (CaCBT), evaluate whether participants found the treatment feasible and acceptable, and create a training package to enable providers to offer it to this community.
