Whose Couch is it Anyway?!
This
chapter is designed to take the reader through the often-confusing
myriad of psychological therapies available. Working on the
basis that the more knowledge the better the outcome.
Summary
It is my experience that the most effective treatment of depression
is a combination of a psychologically-based therapy and anti-depressants.
It is vital that you have confidence in the therapist, if
you don't, find another one. You wouldn't buy a piece of clothing
that didn't fit – why pay for a therapist that doesn't
fit your requirements?
The reader is provided with a list of “Things to Look
Out For” outlining where some of the pitfalls can occur
with finding the right therapist and type of therapy. They
are educated on when to seek a second opinion.
