Product Description

Review
A remarkably clear and easy to use tool for people living with depression that can be used by almost any health practitioner. This book provides a valuable tool to people with depression and to professionals who can sometimes feel daunted by managing this common and distressing condition. -- Men's Health Journal This book sets itself apart from a rather large pack of potential competitors by its clarity and practicality. It is particluarly well-suited for use in practices that use predominantly cognitive-behavioural techniques in treating mild to moderate depression. Psychotherapists and psychiatrists in training will find it extremely helpful. It is destined to be highly regarded, particularly by clinicians who struggle to find relevant homework assignments for their patients who suffer from deppressive illness. -- Doody Review Services (Barnes and Noble.com) 20020927 ..a well-organised, easy to understand, self help workbook..a useful addition to anyone experiencing depression or anyone seeing a health care professional for mild to moderate psychological problems. -- S.T.A.N.D. 20030214

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent self help, 4 Jul 2005
By A Customer
I have found this an excellent book to use alone or with the support of a therapist, GP. After 7 years of suffering with anxiety and chronic depression I have found this book just the tool to start being proactive and taking responsibility for your own recovery. It is laid out well and is easy to read and provides you with achievable targets and aims as well as encouraging you to make your own goals. Excellent, is recommended to sufferers and health professionals alike

By A Customer
Written in the style of a self help book. This provides very clear and informative information, in jargon free language. Very helpful for use on your own, or with others.
It explains all aspects of depression very clearly with plenty of practical advice.
