Introduction To Depression Therapy
Depression is a mental illness that often gets
overlooked and underestimated as well. It can be
a serious, debilitating condition that leaves the
sufferer feeling isolated and alone. Here are
some of the techniques therapists use as a part
of depression therapy.

Private Therapy
This, of course, is the most common and popular
form of depression therapy. This is when a
therapist or counselor sits down with the person
undergoing depression and through a series of
private sessions, tries to understand the
underlying cause of this depression. It is highly
effective and is usually the first line of
treatment.

Group Therapy
The main aim of group therapy is to reduce the
sense of isolation and fear that depressed
individuals tend to feel. The idea is to get
together a bunch of people who are undergoing
depression and get them to share their
experiences in an open group set-up. The
discussions are ideally governed by a therapist.

Family Counseling
While this is a relatively new concept, it is
fast gaining prominence. Very often, depressed
people are misunderstood by their loved ones and
this creates even bigger problems. Family
counseling aims at sensitizing the entire family
to the idea of depression and helping them cope
with having a depressed person in their midst.

Behavioural Changes
Be it through private therapy, group therapy or
family counseling, your therapist will constantly
collect information on your condition. The next
step will then be to help you start making
positive behavioural changes which will in turn
impact your state of mind and mental health as
well.
