Interventions

  • WeACT — BEHAVIORAL
    WeACT includes six self-paced weekly ACT modules and a tailored daily practice component. Each weekly module includes ACT skills training materials. The daily practice section provides brief, in-the-moment ACT skill coaching based on participants' current self-ratings.

Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether WeACT, a self-paced, web-based program, is feasible and helpful for adult family caregivers of a relative living with dementia. WeACT is based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which teaches skills to handle difficult thoughts and feelings and take steps toward what matters most. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Can caregivers complete WeACT as planned? * Do caregivers show improvements in mental health and coping after using WeACT? * What are caregivers' experiences with the program, and what suggestions do they have to improve it? Participants will: * Complete six self-paced weekly online modules and use the daily practice section during the program. * Complete online questionnaires before starting and after completing the program. * Take part in one online interview about their experience.
