Brief Summary:
The aim of this pre-post observational study is to explore if it is feasible to implement 1) routine mental health screening and b) an online Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) treatment for anxiety and/or depression (named COMPASS-MS) for people living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) (PwMS) and co-morbid psychological distress in routine care.
Detailed Description:
The aim of the project is to conduct a feasibility study regarding the implementation of a) routine mental health screening and b) the COMPASS-MS programme as a low-intensity online CBT treatment for anxiety and/or depression in a large English National Health Service (NHS) secondary care MS Clinic.
The intervention will be supported by COMPASS-trained therapists, who will receive supervision from a Clinical Health Psychologist and the Multi-Disciplinary Team (Quantitative Study A). We will also conduct two nested qualitative studies to explore the barriers and facilitators of implementing the COMPASS-MS care pathway locally at King's Hospital (KCH) (Qualitative Study A) and scaling it across Neurology Services outside KCH (Qualitative Study B).
