Relevant concomitant care permitted or prohibited during the trial {11d}
depression, mental illness, anxiety
Information on concomitant care will be gathered and tracked throughout the study to ensure that participants receiving care are evenly disbursed between groups. Inclusion will be restricted to individuals who meet the eligibility criteria and who do not have any current active treatment regimen for a diagnosed mental illness (e.g. medications and/or counselling), with the exception of participants who have been on a stable dose of anti-depressant medications (e.g. SSRIs) for 3 months or more. Participants receiving other psychological interventions for mental health problems, including depression and anxiety, will be excluded from the study.
