OSU Study – Free Psychotherapy for Depression

HAVE YOU BEEN FEELING:
BLUE OR GLOOMY?
TIRED ALL THE TIME?
LESS INTERESTED IN THINGS?

IF SO, YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR A RESEARCH STUDY ON DEPRESSION AT THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY:

What is the Depression Treatment Study?

The Depression Treatment Study is a research study being conducted at the Ohio State University designed to improve our understanding of how cognitive therapy for depression achieves its effects by looking at the ways in which therapy changes cognitions and coping strategies and how these changes are related to reductions in depressive symptoms. Participants will be asked to complete assessments to allow evaluation of the short- and longer-term effectiveness of this intervention. The study is designed to provide high quality clinical care to all study participants enrolled in the study and to improve treatment of depression for others in the future.

Who is the Depression Treatment Study for?

We are recruiting adults between the ages of 18+ for participation in the Depression Treatment Study. If you are experiencing symptoms of depression and are 18 years of age or older, you may qualify for the study.


What does it cost to participate in the Depression Treatment Study?

There is no charge for any of the evaluations or treatment associated with the study. In fact, you will be compensated for the time you spend completing some evaluations associated with the study.

How long does the study last?

The study consists of 16 weeks of individual therapy. Additionally, you will be asked to complete some questionnaires about every six months for the year after your treatment.

How do I get into the study?

Call 614-688-4965 to get more information about the study and complete an initial phone screening. If you do not qualify for the study (or would like treatment not provided in the study), study personnel can discuss other sources of treatment that might be appropriate for you.
