Summary

This study tests a digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program with weekly phone coaching for pregnant women with depression. Researchers will enroll 1,000 women between 12 and 22 weeks pregnant who have depressive symptoms. The goal is to see if the program is easy to use and helps reduce depression and anxiety, while also monitoring infant development.
