Depression can be treated in both long and short term therapy using a number of approaches. Among them are hypnosis, DBT, behaviour activation and CBT. CBT has a strong evidence base to support mood elevation that often persists even after the therapy is finished. In CBT the emphasis is on the here and now, and how learning new thought patterns and actions can generate an improved mood. First clients are trained in how to become experts about their current automatic thoughts and then create and practice new patterns that have meaning for them. CBT is a gentle and fascinating discipline that involves homework and commitment but which can produce remarkably effective, lasting results.

Depression is an insidious companion, and can creep its way in without us realizing for some time. Shifting a depressed mindset can be extremely difficult but neuroimaging studies have shown that by practicing mindfulness we can begin to alter those well-trodden neural pathways and shift our neurochemistry by promoting the production of neurotransmitters linked to feelings of happiness. Psychotherapy can help you identify mindfulness activities and other tools that can help to promote the production of these neurotransmitters and deliver results rooted in neuroscience. I can offer an alternative perspective and act as the catalyst you need to begin making the shift out of depression.
