Study Summary

Study will utilize an app, Matter Neuroscience, designed to help users with depression understand positive emotions and the neurotransmitters that create them. We hope to learn the safety and efficacy of neurofeedback for treating depression and lay the groundwork for a pivotal clinical trial.

Primary Outcome

Determine the safety and efficacy of neurofeedback for treating depression through MADRS (Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale) scale changes. The 9-item self-report version of the MADRS has an overall score range from 0-27, with higher scores corresponding to higher levels of depression.
