Read our Depression research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing SilverCloud, a smartphone app that teaches cognitive behavioral therapy (a proven mental health technique) for high school students struggling with anxiety or depression. A clinician guides you through the app as you learn skills to manage your symptoms. The researchers want to see if this app-based approach works well and fits into school-based mental health services.
Many teens with anxiety and depression don't have easy access to mental health treatment. This study explores whether an app-based program—guided by a clinician but accessible on your phone—could make mental health care easier to reach and use in schools.

If you're selected, you'll use the SilverCloud app on your smartphone, working through lessons and exercises that teach mental health skills—all guided by a clinician. The study has two phases: first, a smaller group will test the app and give feedback; then, a larger group will be randomly assigned to either use SilverCloud or receive your school's usual mental health services. Throughout, you'll complete surveys about how you're feeling and share feedback about whether the app was helpful and easy to use.
