Summary

Due to the pandemic, this study was modified from a randomized clinical trial to test the feasibility, initial efficacy, and mechanisms of action of our PTSC-S intervention to a feasibility and acceptability test of our intervention when delivered via telehealth in a single group, within-subjects design.

Detailed description

The investigators will test the feasibility and acceptability of a telehealth-delivered treatment designed to help smokers with serious mental illness to quit using a therapy approach focused on increasing task persistence. We will provide free, weekly individual telehealth video counseling sessions for 8 weeks and 10-weeks' worth of the nicotine transdermal patch (an FDA-approved smoking cessation product available over the counter). All sessions will be video recorded for treatment integrity and supervision. The investigators hypothesize that 1) the PTSC-S intervention will be acceptable to participants, and the study will be feasible to conduct. We will report prolonged and point prevalence abstinence rates at end-of-counseling and at 3-month follow-up (CO verified \<8ppm).
