Depression intervention tools that take ten minutes and live at a free link are not a silver bullet. Benji Kaveladze will tell you that clearly. A 4% average reduction in depression a month after a single session is also not nothing, especially when the barrier to access is a URL.

What does it feel like to be the person who needs help right now, not in six weeks when the appointment opens up? That gap between crisis and care is exactly where this research lives. Seven thousand five hundred people. Twelve interventions. Two that actually held up a month later.

Both of the ones that worked taught a skill. That turns out to matter more than inspiration.
