Return to Work Randomized Controlled Trial: Counseling After Fatigue Treatment in HIV/AIDS

The current study is a randomized clinical trial comparing Behavioral Activation counseling with supportive counseling for HIV+ participants presenting with clinically significant fatigue whose energy has improved with armodafinil, who have the goal of returning to work or vocational training but have not done so on their own. A second cohort of HIV+ participants without significant fatigue at baseline, but who also have the goal of returning to work, will also be randomized to either Behavioral Activation counseling or supportive counseling. In both cohorts, the primary outcome is level of success regarding an employment related goal.
