  • Have worked for the study site for at least 3 months.
  • Participant Inclusion Criteria:
  • Aged > 18 years
  • Patients at one of our collaborating primary care sites
  • Screen positive for minor (score of 5-9), moderate (score of 10-14), moderately severe (score of 15-19) or severe (score of 20-27) depression on Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9)62 and/or screen positive for problematic alcohol use on Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) developed by the World Health Organization (a score of 8 or more on 10-item AUDIT)63 and have a confirmed diagnosis of depression and/or alcohol use disorder based on clinical consultation at the primary care site

Exclusion Criteria

-Participant Exclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis with co-occurring severe mental illness (e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression with psychotic features)
  • Alcohol withdrawal symptoms that require higher level of care (e.g., emergency medical or inpatient treatment)
  • Express suicidal intention. This assessment will be based on a combination of a patient's response on the PHQ-9 assessment followed by further assessment by a primary care clinician. The PHQ-9 measure will not be used solely to determine eligibility on this criterion. Persons who express suicidal intention will immediately be provided immediate crisis management in accordance with the crisis management protocol at the collaborating primary care site.
  • Intoxicated or otherwise impaired at the time of assessment (rendering the individual incapable of informed consent)
