General Objective: To evaluate feasibility and acceptability of a brief Internet mentalization-based video feedback intervention to improve sensitivity in mothers with depressive symptoms. Key parameters for a future effectiveness study will be identified

Design: Pilot randomized clinical trial; Participants: 60 mother-infant dyads (aged 4-12 months) attended in Public Health Centres.30 dyads will be assigned to the experimental group (EG) and will receive a weekly online brief intervention using video-feedback and psycho-educational materials on early parenting. 30 dyads will be assigned to the control group (CG) and will receive only psycho-educational materials. The study includes 3 assessments (pre-intervention, post-intervention and follow-up) and four weekly intervention sessions.
