The entire text of "How to Heal Depression" is available to read on the
internet for free. Our approach to the treatment of depression is
twofold. One is healing the brain, as current medical research points to
biochemical imbalances in the brain as the seat of depression. The
second is healing the mind-overcoming negative habits of thought and
action which may cause, or be caused by, depression.

mental health problems. FEAR, SHAME, and EMBARRASSMENT often prevent
individuals and their families from doing anything. Mental health problems
are real, and they deserve to be treated. It is not a person's fault if he
or she has a mental health problem. No one is to blame.

warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade,
