Treatment of Depression: Emotional Concerns and Multimodal Assessment

Abstract

Michael F Shaughnessy

In the treatment of depression, while an examination of cognitions and behaviour is surely in order, the therapist must not neglect the emotional realm and needs to delve into the emotional nuances of depression, as it may differ from dysthymia to major depression to depression caused by anaemia and other medical realms. This paper will examine and explore the “common cold of psychology”, examining current issues and offering concerns about current cultural factors as well as concerns about suicide, resulting from depressive episodes.
