Resolving Depression
6-Day Program Over 2 Weeks
(Also
may be completed entirely on-line)
Therapy can be an expensive business, and for some
people, face-to-face consultation is the best approach.
However for the majority of people we know that a quality
online program will provide the same excellent results, even though the
cost is thousands of dollars less expensive.
The Resolving Depression Program can be completed
entirely online for just $US67, and you can access it instantly by
clicking the link at the bottom
of this page. You'll immediately receive your
copy of the treatment manual, as well as instructions for accessing
your personalised online support centre.
About
Our Depression Program
In 2000 an Australian clinical trial of our
non-pharmaceutical approach to treatment of depression demonstrated
that in excess of 80% of people suffering from moderate-to-severe
depression could have their depression completely resolved within days.
This program was developed as a result of that
research, and provides a way of learning about an array of real causes
for
depression, identifying what may be at play in your own unique case,
and showing you simple, safe and easy methods to gain improvement
quickly.
Who
Runs the Program?
Christine Sutherland is a researching clinician
with a 30-year career. Christine has acted as clinical
supervisor for counsellors wishing to be awarded diploma qualification
from the Australian Counselling Association, and is still actively
training and supporting health professionals, as well as managing her
own client case load.
How
Has the Program Been Tested?
Non-controlled trials using these methods have
been run in 3 countries, with nearly 50,000 patients, with outstanding
results. In Australia there has been a single small study,
again with outstanding results. These results mirror our
clinical experience with depressive clients over the past
decade. Reports on these studies are available by clicking "Research"
in our menu.
What
Does the Program Involve?
We work with you to determine what physical and
psychological factors may be at play in your depression, and we may
make recommendations relating to diagnostic procedures to help your
doctor more accurately pinpoint chemical imbalances. The main
focus of the program is teaching and helping you use simple methods to
prevent your nervous system from replaying depressive symptoms and move
into higher mood states and stronger, more resilient, adaptive
responses to your environment.
This is completely different to expecting you to
use "willpower" to simply "try to see things differently". We
already know that you are doing the best that you can, and that may not
even be keeping things under control, let alone working!
Instead we look at the unconscious responses that
your nervous system is "doing to you" to produce that low mood and
other symptoms, including upsetting your chemical balance. As
hard as it may be to believe, we now have easy ways of impacting on
those that don't usually involve medication. This program is
about showing you those methods.
Will
I Have to Keep Using the Methods for the Rest of My Life?
No. The aim of these methods is to make
permanent adjustments to the way your nervous system works, and to
create permanent lifestyle changes that support your physical and
mental health. It's possible that you could become depressed
again in the future, but far less likely.
How
Fast Can I Expect Results?
Whilst our clinical experience and research shows
rapid change, often immediately and usually within a few days, for some
people changes are slower, and it is thought that in these cases some
damage may have been done due to changed brain chemistry. For
example, the hippocampus, which is involved in short-term memory (just
one of its functions), may have shrunk in size and become less
effective. It is important to realise that we now know this
damage is very reversible. With lifestyle and other changes,
the hippocampus can and does regenerate relatively quickly.
As you will see from the clinical trial in
Australia (peer-reviewed and published in the academic journal
"Frontier Perspectives") over 90% of participants were able to
eliminate their depression within 6 days, and at 6 month follow-up had
improved still further.
You can read the complete paper by clicking on "Research" in the menu column
to your left. This paper has been peer-reviewed and published
in the academic journal "Frontier Perspectives".
Live
Program
The live program
is run 3 days per week for 2 weeks, with participants learning the many
and varied causes of depression, as well as the healthiest, fastest,
and most comfortable ways to overcome them. Although the
program does provide challenge, at the same time it offers support,
nurture, compassion and understanding of this most difficult life
experience.
Concurrent with
this period, participants work with the on-line forum in order to get
assistance and support at any time, including working through the steps
of the program.
