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

Summary

This study tests a brief digital mental health program for people on waiting lists for psychological treatment. About 80 participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: a short program (30-40 minutes), a longer version, or control conditions. The main goal is to see if the study procedures work and if people find the program acceptable, not yet to prove it reduces symptoms.
