About This Breast Cancer Study in Coral Gables

The purpose of this research study to find out if a program called Remotely-delivered Cognitive Behavioral Stress Management (R-CBSM) can help women with breast cancer in the period of survivorship after they have completed treatment. This is a group stress management program done from home using technology, like Zoom to conduct video calls to conduct group-based training in stress management techniques (e.g., relaxation, cognitive behavioral therapy, coping skills training) in a supportive environment. It is for women aged 50 or older who have finished their main breast cancer treatments (like surgery, radiation, or chemo) and are undergoing hormone treatment. This study is important because many breast cancer survivors still feel stress, even after treatment ends. Teaching stress management may help the body and mind work better and may slow down the effects of aging caused by cancer and stress.
