Excited to share our analyses of our empathy-focused telephone program showing meaningful results for those with depressive symptoms @APAPubJournals

A program that can be delivered by the average person improved symptoms of clinical depression, a new analysis from @mkahlon shows. Could such programs be incorporated into primary care & alleviate mental health workforce shortages? bit.ly/41qS9if

A 2021 study from @DellMedSchool's @FactorHealth_ found that you can reduce feelings of loneliness, anxiety & other #MentalHealth concerns in older adults with a phone call. Reach out to loved ones and ask for help if you need it — you can make a difference. #UTinServicetoTexas

"The focus of the calls were for the caller to learn about the other person & to prioritize whatever it was that the person they were calling wanted to prioritize...The bottom line is, you’re listening as much as possible."
