Summary
This study tests a new approach for depressed teens ages 13-18. It combines mindfulness meditation with real-time brain scans (fMRI) to help them learn to control brain circuits linked to rumination—repetitive negative thinking. The goal is to reduce depression symptoms by changing how the brain works. 90 participants will be recruited to see if this innovative training is effective.
