Depression
The internet has scores of information on depression. Below are some helpful links that I find most informative on depression. My personal views on dealing with depression is rooted towards providing empathic supportive therapy towards identifying triggers, precipitating factors, and causes that attribute the depressive root. Through this process, I provide a positive environment in which the client can feel safe in exploring their moods and affective state. I challenge negative thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that reinforce the depressive cycle and promote change through self reflection and integration of newly formed positive beliefs into the person's life.
