About this trial
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of a web-based psychoeducation program on psychological well-being and quality of life in breast cancer survivors who completed active treatment at least one year earlier.
Seventy-two women will be randomly assigned to either a 6-week online psychoeducation program plus standard care or standard care alone. The intervention consists of weekly 30-45 minute online sessions focusing on coping strategies, psychosocial adjustment, quality of life, and psychological well-being.
Primary outcomes include psychological well-being, fear of cancer recurrence, quality of life, and hopelessness, assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and 2-month follow-up.
