Screening Wizard (SW). Primary Care Providers (PCPs) are often uncertain about how to best refer adolescents who screen positive for depression or suicidality. Screen-positive youth who are either not in treatment, or express dissatisfaction with current treatment will be consented by an on-site research assistant (RA). Participants will answer questions via adaptive screens developed in a previous NIMH study (MH100155) for suicidal risk, anxiety, and mania. These will address perceived barriers and preferences about treatment. Participants are then randomized into 1 of 3 groups: 1) Providing the symptoms scores report of results to their provider based on their Screening Wizard responses (Screening as Usual); 2) Providing the symptoms scores report and their responses to treatment preferences and barriers including treatment recommendations their provider might suggest (Screening Wizard 2.0); or 3) Providing the report with treatment recommendations to their provider and a website called SOVA or Supporting Our Valued Adolescent, that is aimed at addressing perceptions about mental health providing support to teens through peer interaction that social workers and doctors moderate on a 24 hour a day basis (Screening Wizard 2.0 + SOVA).
