Interventions to Facilitate Working While Depressed and Anxious
Enhancing Work Ability in Common Mental Disorders: Comparing Two Interventions in Primary Care Rehabilitation
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Common mental disorders (CMD), including mild to moderate depression, anxiety disorders and exhaustion disorder, are a major cause of sick leave and work disability. Compared to other disorders, work-related problems associated with CMD is sparsely explored. While recommended treatments, such as antidepressants or cognitive behavioral therapy have effects on psychiatric symptoms, the effect on work capacity is unclear, suggesting a need for alternative interventions.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of an add-on work-directed intervention in primary care rehabilitation, compared to a physical activity control, for persons with CMD.
The goal of the experimental condition is to enhance the participant's ability to work by creating an individually tailored plan for self-management, supported by occupational and physical therapy techniques, such as structuring daily activities, stress management or body awareness techniques. Enhancing self-management is the core of this intervention and also a new approach compared to earlier efforts to promote work capacity.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Work-directed rehabilitation
Work-directed, person-centered plan using modules of occupational therapy and physical therapy
|
Each participant starts with a meeting together with an occupational therapist or a physical therapist, focusing on the participant's resources and obstacles for functioning well at work.
A plan is designed and carried out over 8 weeks, including 1-4 different treatment modules of occupational and physical therapy, to support the person's ability to function at work
|
Active Comparator: Physical activity
Physical activity according to national health recommendations
|
In a meeting with a physical therapist, each participant receives advice on physical activity to support mental health, according to national recommendations.
The participant is offered to train at a local gym during 8 weeks.
