Who is the study for?
This trial is for Spanish-speaking adults with moderate depression or anxiety, not currently in psychotherapy but possibly on stable antidepressants. They must be over 18, have internet access, and be comfortable with technology or willing to learn. Excluded are those with severe mental health disorders, substance abuse issues, severe suicidality, or impairments that hinder study participation.
What is being tested?
The study compares two approaches of digital Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (dCBT) for Latino patients: one self-guided and the other supported by healthcare providers. It also examines different referral methods—direct provider referrals versus using a patient registry—to see which is more effective at identifying candidates for dCBT.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
As this trial involves non-medical interventions (digital therapy), typical drug side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience discomfort discussing personal issues or could potentially feel an increase in depressive symptoms initially.
