HARMON-E: group-based online trial for people experiencing depression or bipolar disorder

The HARMON-E trial is a group-based, telehealth clinical trial designed to support positive lifestyle changes to improve mental health for adults who are experiencing depression or bipolar disorder. HARMON-E is based on well-established evidence for lifestyle interventions as effective strategies for improving depressive symptoms and common associated physical health conditions.

What are we hoping to find? The trial aims to determine whether a lifestyle-based approach to mental health care is as good as psychotherapy for reducing symptoms of depression.

Study progress: The HARMON-E trial closed participant recruitment in September 2025.
