As the stresses of everyday life increase in the modern world, people’s inability to cope with the overwhelming impacts of stress may result in depression. Depression is a condition that can significantly affect one’s ability to enjoy a life of meaning and contribution. The treatments for depression often result in a reduction of symptoms and therapy often focuses on managing one’s depression. Many practitioners look to behavioral or pharmaceutical means to counter depression, but find that their interventions have limited success. In the Satir Model, depression is explained in terms of a symptom intended to be the solution to internal pain and chaos. It is possible, through a deeply experiential, transformational therapeutic process, to greatly reduce the impact of the pain and chaos, and help the client to re-choose life so that she can grow in a positively directional way towards peace, joy and empowerment. This will include: How to help the client change their intrapsychic system including their emotions, perceptions, expectations and behaviours. How to help clients accept their internal experience, including the emotions they are having difficulty facing. How to help clients connect with their Life Energy in a positively directional way towards choosing life. How to help clients develop a connection with their internal resources. How to help families connect and support each other in healthy ways and heal from the impact of depression. The workshop will incorporate lecturettes, discussion, experiential exercises, demonstrations and skill development practice as part of the program.
