Online Peer-Delivered Group CBT for Postpartum Depression
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for Postpartum Depression. Completed, enrolled 191 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Mothers and birthing parents (hereafter referred to as mothers) who have recovered from Postpartum Depression and are well now, receive training to teach a 9 week Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) treatment to mothers who are feeling depressed after giving birth in the last year. Eligible mothers are randomly assigned to one of two groups. Mothers in one group will receive a 9 week group CBT intervention delivered online by the trained Peer facilitators. Mothers in the other group will not receive the CBT group intervention and will continue to receive treatment as usual or regular care for new mothers. Mothers in both groups will complete online questionnaires three times - when participants start the study, nine weeks later and six months after that. Mothers in the intervention group will also complete a few questionnaires once during the intervention and a satisfaction questionnaire at end of intervention. Participant information will help determine if the CBT treatment is helpful for postpartum depression.
