Intersession Processes in Psychotherapeutic Treatments Using an Ecological Momentary Assessment Approach (ISA-Bell)
The effects of a monitoring intervention as an add-on to face-to-face Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for depression are assessed in this randomised trial. Monitoring consists of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) of symptoms and inter-session processes via mobile phones. Twenty sessions of face-to-face CBT + EMA are compared to twenty sessions …
Investigation to Understand and Optimize Psilocybin
This study will examine the effects of a single dose of psilocybin, administered with psychological support, on symptoms of depression. It will also assess whether different post-dosing interventions, including a non-invasive technique called transcutaneous auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation (taVNS), influence various psychological and behavioral outcomes. In addition, the study will …
A Computerized Depression Intervention in Veterans
Depressive symptoms are common among Veterans and associated with significant impairment. Timely intervention has the potential to improve mental health outcomes and restore functioning. Interventions delivered through the internet can be completed remotely at any time, and thus minimize burden on Veterans, however the research examining their utility in Veterans …
Empower@Home: Community Implementation for Older Adults With Ambulatory Disabilities
This study is a randomized Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of Empower@Home, an internet-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program supported by social service providers, in comparison to enhanced usual care for depression in older adults with ambulatory disabilities. A total of 64 participants with ambulatory disabilities …
Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Electrophysiological Effects and Efficacy of DMT in Humans
The goal of this phase 1 study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of dimethyltryptamine (DMT) in individuals with depression and healthy controls. We hypothesize that administration of DMT will result in decreases in depression, associated symptoms, and neuroplastic changes in depressed subjects. We expect that DMT will induce …
Treating Loneliness In The Older Adult With Depression With tDCS
High loneliness is prevalent among older adults and is a significant risk factor for major depression and low recovery rates in patients. Current interventions for loneliness are limited. Previous research has demonstrated a link between loneliness, negative social emotions, and reduced resting-state functional connectivity in the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) …
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)-Guided Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
This technology development project will be informed and guided by initial data collection of human subject data. For this purpose, the investigators will recruit n=100 people with mild to moderate depression in a double-blinded, parallel-arm, sham-controlled data collection period administered at home and using the investigator's remotely supervised (RS) tDCS …
Slow Wave Induction by Propofol to Eliminate Depression (SWIPED) Stage II
The investigators hypothesize that brief behavioral therapy and targeted propofol infusion in depressed geriatric patients will augment subsequent slow wave sleep and improve clinical and cognitive outcomes. The team will recruit 70 participants for a double-blinded placebo controlled randomized controlled trial. Two propofol infusions, 2-6 days apart, will be administered, …
Neurobiological and Genomic Predictors of Relapse in Depression
The goal of this observational study is to test whether the discontinuation of antidepressant medications for patients with depression can be decided after the normalization of biological parameters. The main questions it aims are: When patients with depression treated with antidepressants, does their brain activity also become normal? If so, …
Sound Bite-- a Therapeutic Song-writing Program
The research aims to investigate the effectiveness of the therapeutic song-writing program on young people with depressive symptoms. This study adopts a multicentre randomized control trial two arms research design. A randomised controlled trial will compare a typical 7-session therapeutic song-writing program with a waitlist-control group to determine whether the …
