Clinical Trial Summary

Depression is a prevalent non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has been shown to be an effective treatment for depression in PD. CBT is usually administered in-person in weekly sessions, but PD motor disability, stigma, and transportation issues may prevent attending such therapy sessions. CBT administered via live videoconference technology may allow the treatment of depression, while circumventing the barriers that deter those with PD from seeking psychological services. The investigators propose that videoconference CBT will improve mood in individuals with PD who have depression.


Clinical Trial Description

The investigators plan to conduct a randomized control trial with 12 participants. Six (PD-early) will receive three assessments: baseline, immediately post-treatment (post1), and 6 weeks after treatment (post2). The other six (PD-waitlist) will have an additional assessment (Baseline 2; 12 weeks after Baseline 1) to examine practice effects before beginning treatment, and then will have the post1 and post2 assessments (four assessments). ;
