Anxiety and depression occur in 20-30 percent of patients following MI and have been identified as risk factors for recurrent adverse cardiac event.

The study will include 30 patients. The MI-specific CBT lasts for 8 weeks and is therapist guided and delivered via internet via a secure digital platform by licensed psychologists expertise in CBT for cardiac disease or final year psychologist under supervision.
