Psychosocial and Behavioral Intervention for Stem Cell Transplant Patients and Their Family Caregivers

The investigators propose a randomized controlled trial testing two brief, 4 session psychosocial interventions to help patients and family caregivers better manage the time period after hospital discharge from stem cell transplant. Patients and family caregivers will be randomized to either the skill learning intervention (n=52 patient-family caregiver dyads) or to the supportive care intervention (n=52 patient-family caregiver dyads). The intervention will be conducted via live video conferencing. Patients and family caregivers will complete questionnaires before the intervention and at 1-, 5-, 12-, 24 weeks afterwards. The investigators will determine whether the skills learning group has improved outcomes, including adherence to the medical regimen and perceived task efficacy.
