Detailed Description:

This randomized, double-blind, controlled trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of 8 weeks of treatment of two digital therapeutics in a population of women with mild to moderate postpartum depression. Patients will be referred by an obstetrician, pediatrician, or other healthcare professional, or by other digital and site based recruitment methods and, if interested, will complete the pre-screening process. Those confirmed as eligible will be scheduled to attend a screening/baseline onsite visit. Eligible participants will be randomized to one of the two groups and will receive instructions on downloading and using the smartphone application to which they were randomized. Participants will use the app as instructed and will attend telehealth visits to complete assessments for the primary and safety endpoints at Weeks 4 and 8 (EOT).}}
