Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Behavioural Activation

The intervention will span 6 weeks, including two intervention sessions with the primary care psychologist, and 6-weeks use of a mobile activity scheduling app (Strides). In the first intervention session, the psychologist would provide psychoeducation about depression, therapeutic rationale of behavioural activation, aid the patient in identifying their values and corresponding activities that may correspond with their values, introduce the mobile app, and help the patient schedule initial activities/goals. The second intervention session, which would be flexibly scheduled according to patient need, would focus on troubleshooting/clarification of previously discussed topics.
