Participants will be randomly allocated into either the intervention group (CCT) or the waitlist control group in a 1:1 ratio. The randomization will be done using a computer, and participants will be assigned their allocation codes according to the order of their entry into the study.
Although participants will know which group they are allocated to, they will be advised not to discuss with other participants or the outcome assessor. The research assistant who facilitates the CCT will not be involved in the outcome assessment. The outcome assessor will be blinded to the allocation status and will not participate in delivering the intervention.
