Official Title: Internet-delivered Treatment for Children With Anxiety Disorders in a Rural Area; an Open Trial in a Clinical Setting
Brief Summary: An open trial will be conducted at the Child and Mental Health Service (CAMHS) unit in the rural county Jämtland in Sweden to test the feasibility and efficacy of Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavior Therapy (ICBT) for children with anxiety disorders in a clinical setting. 20 children with a principal diagnosis of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), separation anxiety, specific phobia and their parents will be recruited from the CAMHS-center in Östersund. They will receive 12 weeks of therapist-supported ICBT and will be assessed by clinician ratings and child- and parent-reports at baseline, post-treatment and 3 month follow-up. The primary outcome measures the Clinical Global Impressions - Severity scale (CGI-S). Secondary outcome measures include clinician rated global functioning, and child and parent-rated anxiety and functioning.
