 

*Have you been feeling down or depressed recently?*

*Have you lost interest in your regular activities?*

If you said “yes” to either of these questions, you may be eligible for a new treatment study at no cost to you. You must be over 18 years old and live in Massachusetts to participate. 

This study is testing a new smartphone app-delivered treatment for people who are feeling depressed. The treatment is called cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Participants will receive free access to the app as well as support from a CBT therapist through brief, weekly virtual appointments. CBT helps people learn new skills to reduce unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and improve their mood. We hope that this new smartphone-delivered treatment will help more people get access to this treatment.
