The intervention was found to be acceptable, feasible and safe. Anxiety at baseline was higher than previously observed, which could be associated with the additional burden caused by COVID-19 as the intervention was trialled during the pandemic. Findings add to the growing evidence supporting the use of psychological therapies, including cognitive behavioural therapy, in this clinical group.
