NCT ID NCT07388004

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests two new group therapies for adults with major depression. One therapy helps change rigid negative expectations, while the other boosts sensitivity to positive experiences. 150 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the therapies or a waiting list, and their symptoms will be tracked for 6 months. The goal is to see if targeting these specific brain processes leads to better and longer-lasting relief.
