Depression Relapse Prevention/
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Depression Relapse (MBCT)
Depression Relapse Prevention can help people who have recovered from repeated bouts of major depression or chronic unhappiness and want to reduce the risk of relapse. This training can help those people find wise and compassionate ways to handle life, thus making it less likely that they experience another major depressive episode. Depression Relapse Prevention training, formulated by Zindel Segal, Mark Williams, and John Teasdale is a combination of cognitive therapy and training in mindfulness meditative practices.

At this time we are offering individual depression relapse prevention training which includes the instruction in mindfulness meditation and how it can help in the exploration of the thoughts and feelings that characterize depression and the experimentation with relating to those thoughts and feelings in a very different way.
Those involved are encouraged to make a commitment to practice mindfulness
meditation outside the sessions 5 to 6 days per week for 45 – 60 minutes
each day.

"Be patient
toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions
themselves like locked rooms or books that are written in a foreign tongue.
The point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will
then gradually, without noticing it, live your way some distant day into
the answers." Rainer Maria Rilke |
