Making Sense of Depression: A guide for mental health staff who work directly with clients with depression provides mental health workers in all public, private and voluntary sectors with information on the nature of depression based on a number of theories from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which is the predominant model used in public services at the moment. This guide aims to improve the awareness and skill level of workers using psychological therapies with their clients. The information in each chapter will act as pathway through depression from understanding the condition to working directly with it, to finally planning for recovery.
