The iaya app was developed by clinicians from the Young Adult Program at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The iaya app is a smartphone application intervention that -through a variety of approaches, such as exercises aimed at identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors, imagery, and relaxation- seeks to enhance coping with the emotional impact of cancer.
The investigators are conducting this study to see if the iaya app, specifically developed for young adults with cancer, is practical, to determine patient satisfaction with the iaya app, and to test study procedures.
