Solomiya App - CBT-based Self-help Intervention
Sponsor: Solveig Kemna
Summary
The project aims to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a smartphone intervention for depressive symptoms and insomnia in people living under prolonged stress due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. A secondary aim is to assess the clinical outcomes of the intervention by comparing changes in symptoms from baseline (T0) to post-intervention (T1 \&T2) (single-arm feasibility design). The participants will receive an app-based smartphone intervention with psychoeducational content, relaxation exercises and mindfulness-based interventions and symptom tracking.

Solomiya App - CBT-based self-help intervention The Solomiya app is a mobile-based self-help intervention designed to reduce and cope with depressive symptoms and improve sleep in individuals exposed to chronic stress.

It includes psychoeducational multimedia modules on stress management and sleep problems, along with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)-based tools such as guided relaxation exercises, mindfulness practices, and behavioral activation strategies. The app also offers symptom tracking using the PHQ-9 to support user self-monitoring. Participants are instructed to engage with the app regularly over a 4 week period. The intervention is entirely self-guided and does not involve therapist support. App usage and adherence data will be collect
