Funded Activity Summary

Postnatal depression (PND) affects more than 1 in 10 women, with serious consequences for maternal mental health and infant development. This project will evaluate our newly developed Web-based psychological intervention for PND and compare it to traditional face-to-face psychological treatment. Poor uptake of traditional treatment relates to fear of stigma, access and expense. The potential public health impact of Web-based treatment is enormous given the 300,000 annual births in Australia.
