Importance: Clinician-guided online self-help based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has been shown to be effective at decreasing symptom severity for people with atopic dermatitis (AD). A brief online self-guided CBT intervention could be more cost-effective and allow for easy implementation and broader outreach compared with more comprehensive clinician-guided interventions.
Objective: To investigate whether a brief online self-guided CBT intervention is noninferior to a comprehensive online clinician-guided CBT treatment.
