Summary

This pilot trial tests a digital program called Together in Parenting (TIP) designed to help fathers who are experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety after their child is born. The program includes short podcasts and educational materials based on interpersonal therapy. The study will see if fathers find the program useful and easy to use, and whether it might help reduce their symptoms.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong
