The DIRECT team developed a depression self-care toolkit specifically for community-based patients. The toolkit, which can be modified according to the needs of specific target populations, acknowledges the interconnectedness of mental and physical health and addresses both aspects in a coordinated manner. The team has shown the feasibility of delivering supported depression self-care based on cognitive behavioral therapy principles using telephone or internet modalities. This model of guided mental health self-care is innovative, accessible, and employs low-cost self-care tools and trained lay guides who may be recruited from communities-at-large.
