Summary

In the current study we aim to investigate the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of ImRs offered by mental health assistants within primary care to reduce depressive symptoms. In a single-case experimental design (SCED) study, the following hypotheses will be tested:

1. ImRs results in a reduction of depressive symptoms compared to baseline, and this reduction lasts up to six months.
2. Patients with complaints of depressive symptoms find ImRs an acceptable form of intervention when offered by mental health assistants within a general practice setting.

Participants will wait for 2-4 weeks and then receive 5 sessions of ImRs over a period of 10 weeks. During these sessions, negative memories related to their depressed feelings are rescripted.
