Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to see whether we can predict which patients with depression will get better when we treat them with psychodynamic psychotherapy. We will use neuroimaging (a method of looking at brain activity) in this study. We want to see whether there are changes in the brains of patients receiving this type of therapy. We hypothesize that these changes may predict how well certain parts of the psychotherapy treatment process works.
