Phototherapy of seasonal affective disorder in an adolescent female
Abstract
Seasonal affective disorder and its response to phototherapy has not been extensively studied in children and adolescents. In this case study, a 16-year-old girl with a 3-year history of seasonal affective disorder sought treatment. An A-B-A'-B study design demonstrates the remission of symptoms with phototherapy.
