Telephone-Administered Therapy and Quality of Life among Patients with Multiple Sclerosis (Pubmed)

SJCRG: Not everybody who needs counselling can easily go to therapy appointment.  Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients are a very good subset  of  chronically ill class to evaluate different methods of phone therapy support. So we are happy to have found this study from the Center for the Management of Complex Chronic Care,Il.    The study formed two groups:

  1. Patients given  telephone-Administered Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
  2. Patients given   telephone-administered  Supportive emotion-focused Therapy

The study concluded:  Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy  provided greater Quality of Life benefits compared with supportive emotion-focused Therapy.

SJCRG Notes: So it seems that phone therapy works and highly skilled therapy works best: Not a surprise, but documented
