At their most severe these emotions are usually accompanied by high levels of pessimism with lack of hope for the future. On completion of the group programme members will understand the cycle of depression. Develop skills and coping strategies to manage the symptoms and achieve their personal goals and use contingency planning strategies to resolve any setbacks in their progress. Closed group. Attendance is weekly for 9 sessions inclusive of one follow up session. Groups are a safe and confidential method of therapeutic intervention.
