These distressing memories, commonly dating back to childhood, can contribute to the development and maintenance of depression through their impact on cognitive schemas.

In this randomized trial, we will assess the impact of a three-session ImRs intervention within standard cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) for depression, comparing it to an active control intervention (imagery relaxation).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixty-six patients with MDD who are currently receiving treatment (CBT) will be randomized to either (1) the experimental condition (ImRs) or (2) the control condition (imagery relaxation). Reduction of depressive symptoms, measured by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) is the primary outcome. The BDI-II will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and at 4-week and 8-week follow-ups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study will help to clarify whether adding three ImRs sessions improves the effectiveness of CBT for depression.
