Seven adolescents with severe depression, identified by PHQ-9 scores of 20–24, received structured mindfulness therapy for two weeks (three 15–20 minute sessions per week). After the intervention, PHQ-9 scores fell to 3–6; four adolescents were no longer depressed and three had mild depression. The mean score dropped from 21.86 to 4.43. Mindfulness therapy may be an effective non-pharmacological intervention for reducing depression in adolescents.
