Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of two types of group therapy sessions. The research is being done because the researchers are trying to learn if these approaches could be used by therapist in the community social service agencies to treat older adults with depression. There are two study groups. One group is a form of group therapy called "Engage-M", which encourages subjects to engage in physical and social activities that they find pleasurable or rewarding. One group is another form of group therapy called, "Wellness in Mind and Body", which focuses on education and de-stigmatization of health and mental health conditions.

Primary Outcome

In both conditions, the change in clinically significant depressive symptoms as measured on the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). The scale captures the severity of ten common symptoms of depression. The combined score yields a value between 0-60. Higher scores indicate more severe depression, which benchmarks as follows: 0 to 6: normal/symptoms absent; 7 to 19: mild depression; 20 to 34: moderate depression; \>34: severe depression.
