Grant Activity:
Evaluating the effectiveness of lifestyle therapy versus standard psychotherapy for reducing depression in adults with COVID-19 related distress: The CALM trial
Purpose:
The mental health of Australians has deteriorated since the COVID-19 outbreak. Our data show almost 1 in 2 Australians experienced depression during lockdown. CALM is an 8-week group-based, telehealth, lifestyle program for those with elevated psychological distress. It is delivered in Victoria as part of a partnership between Deakin University and Barwon Health's Mental Health, Drug and Alcohol Services. We anticipate CALM will be as effective and cost-effective as therapy for reducing depression.
