In this pilot randomized controlled trial, patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and at least mild distress (N=80) will be randomized to receive LiveWell, an adapted Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Skills Training protocol) or Usual Care. The investigators will evaluate feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of LiveWell to reduce distress (primary outcome) and improve psychological well-being, symptom burden, and quality of life (secondary outcomes). The investigators will explore emotion regulation as a potential mechanism of change.
