The objectives of this study were to describe the experiences of children and families affected by cCMV, and examine the use of clinical psychology as a model of care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Thirty-four families were recruited from a specialist cCMV clinic and invited to access developmental assessment and individual formulation-based clinical psychology intervention, including facilitated parent peer support.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Birth mothers were significantly more stressed than fathers, and poorer parental well-being was associated with negative perception of life changes following cCMV diagnosis, but not related to disease severity. Following clinical psychology intervention, parents reported significant improvements in understanding and confidence in managing their child\u2019s needs. However, well-being remained varied, which may reflect the ongoing prognostic uncertainty of having a child with cCMV. Thematic analysis of parental experiences identified five themes: (1) processing the experience of cCMV, (2) disrupted newborn phase, (3) relationship to healthcare, (4) lack of shared experiences, and (5) raising awareness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Clinical psychology was positively received as a protected space to explore and validate the emotional impact of cCMV, and facilitate connection with others who share personal experience of cCMV. The findings support the use of embedded clinical psychology provision for families affected by cCMV, and the importance of increasing cCMV awareness to improve pathways of care and reduce psychological distress.<\/jats:p>\n
