Abstract
Some psychological therapy approaches have been empirically supported for the improvement of psychological impairment and other symptoms associated with chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS).
Over the past decade a series of studies on the practicality and treatment efficacy of online psychological therapies for managing CFS have shown promising results. Here we review the main characteristics of known internet-based interventions and research results.
The majority of randomized control trial (RCT) studies have shown some treatment effectiveness for the reduction in fatigue severity, psychological distress, and cognitive impairment, among other CFS-related symptoms.
Future research is warranted to increase the evidence base for psychological treatment interventions for CFS and similar conditions with overlapping symptomatology, such as fibromyalgia and temporomandibular disorder.
