Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app called JoyPop can help young adults (ages 18-25) better manage their emotions, anxiety, and depression while they wait for mental health services. About 110 participants from Northwestern Ontario will either use the app or continue with usual care. The goal is to see if the app improves emotion regulation and reduces distress during the waiting period.
