Some excellent ideas and strategies for dealing with depression,
Mark has a very common sense approach for re-motivating people,
who may be in a rut. Like Milton Erickson he has them spend time in Nature,
getting reacquainted with hidden past feelings and emotions/thoughts.
Sometimes our biggest problem when dealing with a depressed person is to expect instant results.
Give it some time....The simple act of contrasting dark and light in Nature can help a lot.
"Searching for Happiness directly is the quickest way to be unhappy paradoxically.
A greater connectedness with Nature, People, and a sense of purpose are extremely powerful remedies.
Also the Metaphor of a boat on a blocked waterway with three possible escape routes out to see was very helpful.
Mark also uses some Socratic questioning with his clients to help them overcome all or nothing thinking: "Is it possible for a thriving or triumphant life to have some rough patches ?
"Are you a bad mother just because your child has some unmet needs ? "
"Is it possible for you to take some time for yourself, while being a caregiver and meet your own needs ? " "Do you sometimes have to be selfish to be unselfish ? "
Some excellent questioning and metaphors for lifting depressive thinking, and/or depression.
Sometimes the question and the search for the answer are a large part of the solution.

Some great practical ideas a clinician can use right away. Very simple but effective strategies. It does talk a lot about hypnoses and I don’t quite know what to think about that but to each their own. However, something that bothered me was towards the end and it’s the demonization of medication particularly about bipolar disorder. That just doesn’t sit right with me. Anyways, overall a great quick read and simple ways to help depressed clients!

A great read for all practitioners!
I would recommend this book to all practitioners who deal with depression. Mark gives great examples from sessions with real clients and practical advice that can be implemented immediately.
