Interventions
CBT treatment is delivered via the Internet. Adaptations to the CBT program will include the addition of content of particular relevance to mothers of young children and the incorporation of instructional design principles to promote self-learning. The treatment program will take advantage of the unique properties of the Internet, including multimedia presentations and interactive components with professional and moderated peer social support.
Participants receiving TAU will be offered the CBT treatment after a wait-list period. During the wait-list period, participants will be offered facilitated referrals to treatment provided in the community.
