Brief Summary

The overall aim of this program of research is to develop a collaborative narrative intervention for patients with depression being treated in primary care. The purpose of the proposed project is to establish the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of our newly developed narrative intervention on depression. To achieve the specific aims, the investigators will conduct an open trial to further develop and refine the intervention (n = 10).

Storytelling Video Intervention (sTVi)

EXPERIMENTAL

We will develop a series of 4 videos, each episode approximately 30 minutes long, which will illustrate the key principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. We will add a short, non-narrative, epilogue at the end of each of the 4 episodes that summarizes key messages and provides information on identifying signs of depression and suggestions for efficacious treatments. In addition, we will develop an accompanying "personal journal" for participants that includes a brief self-help guide which encourages participants to write about what they learned in the videos and how they will take similar steps in their own lives to cope with depression.
