About this study

This study aims to explore how reviewing collateral information sources (CIS) may affect clinical decision-making for clinicians treating participants with varied mood disorders. Investigators will assess the types of collateral information used in the clinical setting and treatment decisions made after a clinical session. We will gather this information from interested clinicians who will provide this information after each patient visit over the course of one week.
