Metacognitive therapy and work-focus for patients with depression, anxiety or comorbid depression and anxiety on sick leave: a single-centre, open-label randomised controlled trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates a metacognitive therapy combined with work-focused components for adults on sick leave due to depression or anxiety. The study compares immediate treatment against a delayed waitlist condition, measuring return-to-work rates and symptom reduction at 12 weeks. It is designed for researchers and clinicians interested in occupational mental health interventions.
