Summary

This study tests an 8-week online cognitive behavioral therapy course designed for new and expecting parents struggling with anxiety or depression. Researchers will enroll 60 parents (including non-birthing partners) to see if the program reduces symptoms and is practical for routine care. The course includes educational materials and questionnaires to track progress.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (ICBT) course
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a convenient, accessible treatment option for anxiety and depression in new and expecting parents.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study (60 participants) without a control group, so results may not be generalizable. The intervention is self-guided online, which may not work for everyone.
