NCT ID NCT07166237
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study tests whether a 9-week online group therapy program (cognitive behavioural therapy) can help fathers and non-birthing parents who feel depressed during their partner's pregnancy or within the first 18 months after birth. About 48 participants in Ontario will be randomly assigned to either receive the therapy plus usual care, or usual care alone. The main goal is to see if this approach is feasible and acceptable, and to measure any improvement in depression symptoms.
