Summary

This study is designed to evaluate a novel online tool to deliver computerized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Participants will be randomized into three groups: experimental, active control, and waitlist. Participants in the experimental group will have access to the full-featured online tool designed to deliver CBT in an interactive and personalized manner. The participants in the active control group will have access to a limited version of the online tool designed to deliver basic CBT in plain text format. The waitlisted participants will be put on a waitlist for 6 weeks. We hypothesize that the experimental group participants will show a significantly higher reduction in depression symptom severity and will show increased engagement and adherence to the online tool.
