    Written in simple, non technical language, this book offers sufferers of depression, their loved ones and those working with them, a comprehensive, self-help guide to recovery. It is a balanced, compassionate approach to help the total person.

    In her own counselling practice, Joan uses structured, objective techniques of cognitive behavioral therapy together with the subjective methods of storytelling and metaphor. This has proved to be a positive recipe for overcoming depression and it is these successful strategies that form the cornerstone of the book which includes:

    - Case histories and explanations describing the many forms of depression, its causes, symptoms and the treatments available.

    - Inspirational tales to bring hope and motivate recovery.
