Abstract

Depression and anxiety are prevalent among adolescents; however, many young people do not seek help from professional services. This is due, in part, to the inadequacies of existing healthcare systems. This article aims to review the current evidence for e-health interventions for depression and anxiety in youth, as a potential solution to the gaps in mental health service provision.
