Summary

This study tested an internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program called AMTE for adolescents with anxiety and depression. Sixty teens were randomly assigned to either the online program or a control group. The goal was to see if the program could reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve emotional well-being.

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 behavioral therapy (CBT) program called AMTE
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a convenient, online treatment option for teens struggling with anxiety and depression, making therapy more accessible.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program is also only available in Spanish, limiting its reach.
