As any mental healthcare professional will know, depression is not one single issue, and is instead a far more generalised term that can encompass numerous different types of problem. Therefore, the best way to treat depression will change from case to case, from person to person and even depending on what the underlying factors are that have created these feelings of depression.

In the UK, depression is on the rise and with more and more people are being diagnosed with depression, more people are being treated with mood stabilisers and antidepressants. Yet, whilst such medication will indeed be right in certain cases, the side-effects can be numerous and just as troublesome as depression itself for many people who takes such pills. As such, wherever there is a more natural route to take, one should be taken.

For any healthcare professional, EMDR workshops can provide a very useful skill to help beat depression without the use of drugs. Where a person is simply chemically pre-disposed to depression, EMDR workshops may not be particularly successful, but for any case where a single event of psychological trauma ...
... has plunged a person into depression, or in the case of those who have simply found themselves slowly sinking into such a funk due to numerous factors and more general changes in their life, EMDR can often be far more successful and far more healthy than any other approach.

EMDR works by simply and effectively reprogramming the way that memories are processed, allowing far more emotional control by the individual and allowing both psychological trauma and single events to be viewed in a completely different, and far less damaging light.

In certain cases, antidepressants can do far more harm than good and look to simply mask the problem rather than resolve it. EMDR looks to get to the root of the problem and reprocess the brain to help to ensure it is far less affected by past events.
