Depression Therapy By Phone May Be Helpful
‘Getting depression therapy by phone may have lasting benefits, a new study shows.
The study included 393 moderately depressed adults who had just started taking antidepressants.
Participants who got 10 to 12 phone therapy sessions over a year, in addition to standard depression care, showed a greater improvement in depression symptoms than those who only got standard depression care with no phone therapy. Those benefits lasted at least six months after the last phone therapy session.
The findings appear in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology.’
