We all have a susceptibility to depression, given a particular set of field conditions. What constitutes these field conditions? Why do some people get stuck in a kind of prolonged depressive trap that it seems they are unable to get out of? Is it a biological problem or is it a reaction to a life event, or is it something that has happened in early developmental life that has caused this suffering?

How can I, as a therapist, work creatively and effectively with a person who presents with depression? Is the goal happiness? How can I prevent myself from becoming depressed when working with depressed people?

These are some of the themes we will cover in the workshop. The workshop will be both theoretical and experiential, and there will be space for discussion and reference to clinical examples.
