This study, called Teenthrive 2, is looking at ways to improve mood in teenagers with depression. It compares two different approaches: a yoga-based intervention and group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Both interventions involve twice-weekly sessions, some in-person and some virtual, for 12 weeks. To join, you need to be between 12 and 18 years old and have elevated depressive symptoms, as determined by specific screening scores. The researchers want to see how well these programs are received by participants and if they can meet their goals for recruitment and attendance. This is a pilot study, meaning it's an early step to see if these treatments are practical and acceptable.
