Mobile therapy app for mood after recent stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a smartphone or tablet app for cognitive behavioral therapy (a type of talk therapy you do on your device) can help with anxiety and depression in the first month after a stroke. The goal is to see if this convenient, at-home approach improves how you feel during early recovery.
