Résumé

Cognitive analytic therapy has been shown to be an effective psychological treatment for a range of differing presentations but little research to date has focused on the use of Group CAT (GCAT). The aim of this study was to explore the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of GCAT for clients with mood and anxiety disorders in primary care. This study utilized a mixed method design. A 12-session GCAT programme was developed covering key CAT concepts. The structure reflected the three phases of CAT - reformulation, recognition, and revision. Participants completed outcome measures pre- and post-treatment and at 3-month follow-up. Acceptability was reported using session attendance and participant feedback in addition to asking clients to rank the utility of CAT treatment components. A therapist interview was also completed. Fifty-five per cent of clients completed the treatment, and feedback suggests that GCAT is an acceptable and feasible intervention for a primary care population. Clients also reported on the utility of specific CAT treatment components. Clients demonstrated positive change on a number of outcome measures. Group cognitive analytic therapy shows promise as an acceptable and feasible treatment for clients with mood and anxiety disorders presenting to primary care services. Further larger and more controlled studies are indicated. The study supports the idea that GCAT is an acceptable and feasible treatment for clients with mood and anxiety disorders in a primary care setting. Clients indicated the utility of various aspects of GCAT The study provides tentative evidence for the effectiveness of GCAT in ameliorating symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression in primary care.
