BEHAVIORAL

IntelliCare + Phone Coaching

IntelliCare is composed of 13 separate, native apps. Each app targets a specific aspect of mental health (e.g., reducing worry, increasing social support, tracking negative thoughts). The apps are available to the public in both Android and iPhone stores. Participants will be asked to try two new IntelliCare apps every week, for 7 weeks. Phone coaching will occur at Day 0, before using any of the apps, and the third week of app usage.
