"The Hazel Health protocol resulted in reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression, as demonstrated by the change in severity levels observed for both the PHQ and GAD assessments. Not only did the overwhelming majority of participants report a reduction in depression and anxiety symptoms, but there were similar consistent results between the PHQ outcomes and GAD outcomes. On both assessments, 75% of the participants fell into a lower level of severity following treatment."
