Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: TEMPOExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Using a stepped care approach, TEMPO will be provided across two intervention stages with variations on timing (initial vs. delayed) and intensity (self-directed vs. guided). All dyads will continue to access usual care (a co-intervention measure is included).
Group II: Actively Monitoring dyads' anxietyActive Control1 Intervention
Patients will receive usual care throughout the study. Dyads in this group will not receive any information resources from the research team but will have access to all of those available at their participating center (sites will be asked to provide a description of usual care practices). Dyads not responding to active monitoring will be stepped up to TEMPO; responders to active monitoring will only be invited to complete the follow-up measures.
