Details and patient eligibility

About

The investigators developed a digital intervention that aims to help adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYAs) manage symptoms of depression. This tool includes daily mood tracking, a psychoeducational module about cancer and depression, four components that are based on evidence-based interventions for depression. The goal of this study is to evaluate the acceptability of procedures for a future trial in which the investigators will test which component or combination of components meaningfully contribute to improvements in depressive symptoms among AYAs. Additionally, the investigators will evaluate study feasibility as well as intervention acceptability, satisfaction, usability, and engagement.
