Ford, Megan E. "Preference for Internet Therapy versus Traditional Therapy to Treat Postpartum Depression." ScholarWorks, 2018. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/4626.

A growing body of research has emerged about effective treatments for postpartum depression, specifically how the internet could become a pivotal and vital option for women with postpartum symptoms. With that in mind, the purpose of this quantitative study was to investigate whether women suffering from postpartum depression preferred traditional therapy treatment or internet therapy treatment. The nonexperimental survey design was used to assess differences between groups related to stigma, satisfaction with treatment, and perceived quality of treatment received. Data collected from a sample of 78 adult females, who had previously received postpartum depression therapy treatment, indicated there was no difference experienced between the treatment modalities. Results were calculated using an independent sample t-test, noninferiority design, and it was determined that participants perceived no difference in their experience of stigma, treatment satisfaction, and perception of credibility and quality between the two therapy modalities. This study adds to the growing body of literature that suggests internet therapy may be a viable option for some women. The results encourage positive social change in that psychologists may advance clinical practice through incorporating technology into their treatment plans, thereby benefiting women who suffer from this condition and who may not be able to readily access a therapist's office on a weekly basis.

Beck's cognitive model of depression suggests that negative thinking can play an important role in the development and maintenance of clinical depression. It follows from this that interventions which reduce the frequency or intensity of depressing thoughts will also reduce depression. This prediction forms the basis of cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) for depression, as developed by Beck and his colleagues. The cognitive model of depression, and cognitive therapy, are described. The development of a questionnaire (the Cognitions Questionnaire -- CQ) is then presented, designed to assess various dimensions of depressive thinking in relation to positive, negative and neutral hypothetical events. Relationships between scores on the questionnaire and level of depression in psychiatric and community samples are examined, and possible indices of continuing cognitive vulnerability to depression following an episode are explored. As an alternative to the traditional outcome trial, a within-subject experimental design is proposed, designed to test the central prediction of the cognitive model outlined above by examining the immediate effects on depressive thinking and on depression of specified cognitive therapy interventions. A series of experiments is presented, which demonstrated that in patients low in endogeneity, a brief, standardised distraction procedure reliably reduced the frequency of depressing thoughts, compared to a control procedure. As would be predicted from the cognitive model of depression, this was accompanied by significant reductions in depression. A study using non depressed student subjects showed that these effects could not be attributed to the direct impact of the two procedures on depressed mood. Similar results were not found in depressed patients high in endogeneity. The nature of this difference in responsiveness to distraction is explored, and its implications for the theory and practice of CBT for depression are discussed.

Depression affects over three million people in the United States every year, with that number increasing drastically as we look at the entire global scale. Depression is described as “a brain disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life” (Mayo Clinic). Possible causes include a combination of biological, psychological, and stress factors. One explanation that psychologists have found includes some abnormal activity by neural circuits in the brain. Depression is characterized by a continuing feeling of sadness and loss of all interest in daily life. Depression can lead to a range of behavioral and physical symptoms. Some of these symptoms include trouble sleeping, loss of appetite, decreased energy level, inability to concentrate, changes in daily behavior, and low self-esteem (Mayo Clinic). In more serious cases, depression can also be associated with thoughts of suicide. Usually, doctors and psychologists will prescribe medications to hopefully combat the feelings of depression and help the patient get out of their altered state. Other forms of treatment include consistent therapy sessions with a psychiatrist or psychologist, during which the patient talks and vents their feelings. Some medications and talk therapy have been proven to be very successful, while others have not. A possible treatment that not many have considered may be the use of music therapy with depressed and lonely individuals. A main issue facing many people with depression and loneliness seems to be a need and desire for connection. What if music could be that connection they are missing? Many studies show that sad music can be used as a therapeutic tool to help cope with sad feelings, but the song and the patterns of sound within may also be giving the patients something else; a connection that they may not have had in the past. Because of this, music can give these individuals a reference point and a new outlook on their situation. If they struggle to find a strong connection with another human, music could be something for them to identify with and an outlet that could help change the way that they see their situation. Sad music can be a positive influence and a coping mechanism for depressed individuals, due to the fact that it provides them with feelings of happiness and gives them a connection and vantage point that they may not necessarily have seen before they listened to the music.

Objective: The Exeter Model is an integrative systemic-behavioural and systemic-empathic couple therapy for treating people with depression. ‘Attachment narratives’ is a component of the systemic-empathic approach, which seeks to help the couple understand how past relationships impact on the current relationship with the aim of rebuilding trust and security between the couple. This study sought to examine how attachment narratives in this Model are used by therapists. Method: Narrative Analysis was employed to explore attachment narratives in three couples who had completed therapy in an outpatient clinic where one member of the couple had been referred with depression. Results: Analysis highlighted four specific ways in which therapists used attachment narratives. These consisted of: therapist enabled stories of past relationships to be foregrounded; attachment theory employed to build hypothesis about attachment styles based on past relationships; therapist helped the couple understand how attachment styles maintain unhelpful cycles of relating and introduced alternative relationship narratives enabling improved trust and security. Analysis also demonstrated the structuring of these attachment narratives across the therapy sessions. Conclusion: This study shows that through the therapist paying attention to attachment styles, awareness of unhelpful cycles of relating within couples can be highlighted, and adjustments to how the couple can relate to each other suggested. This exploratory study serves to better inform the use of the Exeter Model.

Background. Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is a relapse-prevention treatment for people in remission from major depression (rMDD). The neuropsychological mechanisms of MBCT are largely unknown. The key theoretical mechanisms of MBCT include self-compassion and rumination, with other mindfulness-based studies suggesting mechanisms across domains of attention, emotional processing, and cognitive flexibility. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the neuropsychological and neuroimaging mechanisms of MBCT in rMDD and to investigate relationships with relapse six months beyond MBCT. Paper One. 40 MBCT, 33 Treatment As Usual (TAU), and 42 healthy volunteers (HVs) took part. Experimental tasks for self-compassion and rumination were completed at baseline and post-session, alongside self-report questionnaires. Results showed increases for self-compassion following MBCT, with non-specific reductions for rumination. Paper Two. 40 MBCT, 33 TAU, and 42 HV participants took part. Tasks of attention, emotional processing, and cognitive flexibility were completed at baseline and post-session. Results showed increases in positive emotions post-MBCT, with non-specific changes for face emotion recognition and affective attentional bias tasks both post-MBCT and TAU. There were no changes over time for sustained attention or cognitive flexibility. Paper Three. 16 rMDD participants completed baseline and post-MBCT fMRI tasks of sustained attention and self-blame. Results showed reduced activation over time in the bilateral dACC in self-blame contrasts but no activation changes for sustained attention. Paper Four. 69 rMDD participants (38 MBCT & 31 TAU) completed task-based and self-report assessments up to six months follow-up. Non-relapsing MBCT participants showed increased self-compassion post-session which was maintained in follow-up. MBCT non-relapsing and TAU participants showed reduced rumination post-session and in follow-up. Conclusions. MBCT encourages a move towards more self-compassionate, positive processing but does not alter more automatic, bottom-up levels of processing. MBCT initiates a process for change beyond the course, particularly for self-compassion. Findings have theoretical and clinical implications and extend our understanding of the mechanisms of MBCT in rMDD participants.

Background: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) in its current form might not be applicable in Non Western cultures. Differences between western and non western cultures have been reportedly widely. Psychotherapy was developed in the west and is underpinned by many beliefs and practices which might be specific only to the Western culture. However, in order to modify CBT we need to understand whether the concepts associated with the CBT might cause conflicts among people who receive therapy, the barriers in giving therapy and the views of the patients. This project was carried out mainly in Pakistan to adapt CBT for depression. Aims: To find out if CBT can be successfully adapted in a Non Western culture. Methods: This was a mixed methods Study. The project consisted of two phases. In the first phase a series of studies were carried out, including interviews with psychologists, patients and group discussions with university students about their views regarding concepts underlying therapy. In the second phase a CBT for depression manual was modified using guidelines which were developed on the basis of studies carried out in the first phase. This manual was then tested in a small pilot project using a Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) design. Results: We were able to find themes and subthemes, on the basis of studies in first phase of the project, which were used to modify a CBT for depression manual. We developed an adaptation framework on the basis of the identified factors. This framework consisted of three broad themes (name theme) with each subdivided into seven sub themes. The pilot study showed that therapists trained for a short period and under supervision can deliver CBT using a manual. Results of pilot showed that modified CBT is more effective than 'care as usual' in reducing symptoms of depression. Conclusions: The study demonstrates that for CBT to be effective in Non Western cultures, it needs modification. This can be achieved using small scale qualitative studies locally, which explore experience of therapists working in a given culture as well as by exploring the views of patients. Further information can be obtained by talking to the members of that community about concepts underlying CBT. However, these are preliminary findings and further research needs to be done to explore this area further.

Depression in childhood is a significant mental health concern, impacting cognitive, affective, social, behavioral, and physical domains. Children who experience depressive symptoms are at an increased risk for physical and mental health, social, and behavioral problems throughout adulthood. Children who are marginalized due to their socioeconomic status, racial and ethnic identities are at an increased risk to experience depression and limited access to mental health care. Further, previous research has demonstrated limited efficacy of depression treatments for young children. In this study, I examined the efficacy of child-centered play therapy [CCPT], a culturally and developmentally responsive treatment, on depression among young children. Participants were 71 children from five Title 1 elementary schools in the southwestern U.S. referred by school personnel for depressive symptoms (49 males, 22 females; ages 5-9, mean age M = 6.21). The sample consisted of 14 (19.7%) African American, 3 (4.2%) Asian American, 15 (21.1%) biracial, 19 (26.8%) Caucasian, and 20 (28.2%) Latino children. Participants were randomly assigned to eight weeks of twice-weekly CCPT treatment group (n = 34) or a waitlist control group (n = 37). Results of doubly multivariate repeated-measures MANOVA revealed statistically significant improvement in depressive symptoms for children who participated in CCPT on the Mood and Feelings Questionnaire Parent and DOF Sluggish Cognitive Tempo Scale. Repeated measures ANOVA on DOF Total Problems indicated that children in CCPT statistically significantly decreased their demonstration of overall problem behaviors as rated by blind observers. Results of this study support the effectiveness of CCPT with young children of diverse ethnocultural and socioeconomic background.

sample size of nine subjects. The subjects in the experimental group worked with one of
two horses for three sessions that took place over the course of three weeks and had
their HRV measurements taken before, during, and after each of these interactions
using the Zephyr BioHarness and the HeartMath emWave2 as a backup.
Questionnaires for depression, anxiety, and self-esteem were administered before and
after the set of three equine-therapy sessions during the first and fifth week of the study.
The results demonstrate that, on average, heart-focused breathing in the presence of a
horse produced improvements in the HRV and self-reported symptoms of individuals
suffering from depression and anxiety.

Marital discord contributes to the development and continuation of depression and to the recurrence of depressive episodes for those in troubled relationships. Early research suggests that family therapy may reduce the severity and frequency of depressive episodes through modification of family interactional patterns. This would result in a reduction in the cost of treating depression. This study summarizes the literature linking family dynamics with depression. Then,using a sample taken from a large health maintenance organization, data was statistically analyzed to measure the effectiveness of both individual and family therapy as delivered by different types of mental health professionals. Results indicated that family therapy was both effective and cost-effective in the treatment of depression.

Contemporary studies of the aetiology and psychopathology of depression in adolescents have identified the core factors for developing depression as facing negative life events, experiencing interpersonal problems and having deficiencies in skills of coping with challenges and problem solving. However, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has been applied for depression for youth which mainly concentrates on modifying dysfunctional beliefs. The aims of the study are to apply creative problem solving therapy (CPST) and to investigate whether CPST is as effective as CBT. CPST was evaluated by a randomised control trial (RCT) with pre-test, post-test and follow-up comparing the CBT and the control group using the Beck’s Depression Intervention (BDI-II) and Short Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (SMFQ) followed by semi-structured interviews for the purpose of elaboration. A population-based adolescents sample consisting of 91 girls underwent six week (12 sessions) interventions. The results showed clinically significant improvement of the interaction between treatment and time P = 0.001 < 0.05 in overall depression and Mood and Feelings in both groups compared to the control group which showed no change over time in their scores on the two assessments. Significant differences were also found between CPST (M= Pre-test 24.81, Post-test 7.37 and Follow-up 8.50) and CBT (M= Pre-test 24.34, Post-test 10.78 and Follow-up 12.22) favouring the former. The results from the two month follow-up indicated that the CPST group showed fewer symptoms of depression M = 8.50 compared with the CBT group M=12.22. The results of the qualitative data also showed a considerable level of improvement and understanding of the interventions and content of the therapy in both groups, but they used different words and concepts expressing their sense of wellbeing. The results derived from semi structured interviews data revealed little about processes but focussed on the effects and that the students who were sampled had successfully learned the main concepts taught in their respective programmes. CPST represents a promising intervention for minor and mild depression in youth. Repetition with a larger sample is required before roll-out to counselling and clinical settings.

Regulatorische T-Zellen (Tregs, CD4+CD25hi-Tregs) haben u. a. die Aufgabe, die Immunantwort sowie die Zytokinfreisetzung zu steuern, um die Immuntoleranz gegenüber körpereigenen Antigenen aufrecht zu erhalten. Es wurde beschrieben, dass depressive Patienten eine erniedrigte Konzentration von Tregs aufweisen. Da es Hinweise darauf gibt, dass Zytokine wie Interleukin (IL)-1IL-6 und Interferon (IFN)-eine Rolle in der Pathophysiologie der Depression spielen, und dass sich die Konzentrationen dieser Zytokine während antidepressiver Therapie ändern, untersuchten wir Veränderungen der Produktion von IL-1IL-6 und IFN- und Veränderungen der Konzentration von CD4+CD25hi-Tregs während antidepressiver Therapie.
Wir gewannen dazu das Blut von 16 Patienten mit depressiver Störung in der ersten und sechsten Woche nach stationärer Aufnahme, indem wir die Plasmakonzentrationen von IL-1bestimmten. Ferner wurde die Produktion von IL-1, IL-6 und IFN-in einem Vollblut-Assay unter immunologischer Stimulation mit Lipopolysaccharid (LPS) oder Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) in-vitro gemessen. Die Lymphozyten wurden differenziert und CD4+CD25hi-Tregs mittels Durchflusszytometrie bestimmt. Der psychopathologische Status wurde mit der Hamilton-Depressionsskala (HAMD-21) erfasst.
Der HAMD-21-Score, die IL-1-Plasmakonzentrationen sowie die LPS-induzierte IL1-- und IL-6-Produktion waren nach sechs Wochen antidepressiver Behandlung signifikant gegenüber der Baseline erniedrigt. Dagegen stieg der Anteil der CD4+CD25hi-Tregs unter den Lymphozyten von 2,74% ± 0,88 (Mittelwert ± Standardabweichung) auf 3,54% ± 1,21 signifikant (p = 0,007) an. Es fand sich keine signifikante Änderung der NDV-induzierten IFN--Produktion.
Der Anstieg der CD4+CD25hi-Tregs während antidepressiver Therapie könnte mit dem Abfall der Zytokinproduktion und der psychopathologischen Verbesserung der Patienten in einem kausalen Zusammenhang stehen.

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is used worldwide to treat severe mental disorders. The most common mental disorder, and the third leading cause of disease burden in the world is depression. The clinical efficacy of ECT for severe depression is well-established. However, both the pathophysiology of depression and the mechanism of action of ECT remain elusive. The main aims of this thesis are to address the following issues: 1) the use and practice of ECT in Sweden has not been systematically evaluated since 1975, 2) cognitive side-effects (memory disturbances) are a major concern with ECT and 3) the mechanism of action of ECT remain elusive. The neurobiological aspects of ECT focus on two hypotheses. First, the recent years´ preclinical studies that have provided evidence that ECT induces hippocampal cell proliferation, including neurogenesis. Second, that enhanced functional inhibition of neuronal activity is a key feature. Current use and practice of ECT in Sweden (paper I) is based on data from the national quality register for ECT, the mandatory patient register of the National Board of Health and Welfare and a survey. Treated person rate (TPR) in Sweden 2013 was found to be 41 individuals / 100 000, and thus unchanged since the latest systematic investigation in Sweden 1975. In more than 70% of treatment series the indication was a depressive episode. The selection of patients for ECT and treatment technique in Sweden was similar to that in other western countries, but the consent procedure and the involvement of nurses and nursing assistants in the delivery of ECT differ. Data also shows that there is room for improvement in both the specificity of use and availability of ECT. The second study in this thesis is a longitudinal observational trial where 12 (paper II and III) and 14 (paper IV) patients with depression referred for ECT were investigated. Patients underwent a 3 T MRI structural scanning and DSC-MRI perfusion, a neuropsychological test battery and clinical ratings before ECT, within one to two weeks after ECT and after 6 and 12 months. In line with preclinical findings and the plasticity hypothesis of mechanism of action of ECT, the hippocampal volume increased after ECT in patients with depression. However, this increase was transient and returned to baseline levels within 6 months. No correlation was found between volumetric changes and clinical effect or cognitive outcome. Instead our results suggested an association to the number of treatments, without relation to the side of stimulation. A right-sided decrease in frontal blood flow distinguished remission from non-remission after ECT. There were significant impairments in verbal episodic memory and verbal fluency within one week after ending the ECT course, but these impairments were transient and no persistent cognitive impairments were seen during the follow-up. In summary, this thesis present the first update on the use and practice of ECT in Sweden in the last 40 years as well as a pioneering MRI-study on the hippocampal volume increase in the treatment of depression with ECT. Supportive to earlier findings we also found the cognitive side-effects that are measurable after ECT to be transient. Furthermore, we found that a decreased frontal blood flow is of importance for the anti-depressive response to ECT.

Background. Depression and anxiety are common and debilitating disorders, and at least one third of patients do not respond to available interventions. Morita Therapy, a Japanese psychological therapy which contrasts with established Western approaches, is currently untested in the UK and may represent a potentially effective alternative approach. Aim. To optimise and investigate the feasibility and acceptability of Morita Therapy as a treatment for depression and anxiety in the UK. Design. Three studies were undertaken in line with the MRC framework (2008) for complex interventions. Study One: scoping and systematic review to describe the extent, range and nature of Morita Therapy research activity reported in English. Study Two: intervention optimisation study, integrating literature synthesis with qualitative research, to develop the UK Morita Therapy outpatient protocol. Study Three: mixed methods feasibility study encompassing a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) and embedded qualitative interviews to prepare for a fully-powered RCT of Morita Therapy versus treatment as usual (TAU). Results. Study One: 66 papers meeting the inclusion criteria highlighted heterogeneity in the implementation of Morita Therapy, and an absence of both UK-based research and relevant unbiased RCTs. Study Two: a potentially deliverable and acceptable therapy protocol and tailored therapist training programme were developed for a UK population. Study Three: 68 participants were recruited and 94% retained at four month follow-up; 70.6% of Morita Therapy participants adhered to the minimum treatment dose, and 66.7% achieved remission in depressive symptoms (compared to 30.0% in TAU). Qualitative and mixed methods findings indicated that Morita Therapy was broadly acceptable to therapists and participants, and highlighted potential moderators of acceptability, treatment adherence and outcomes. Conclusions. Patients in the UK can accept the premise of Morita Therapy and find the approach beneficial. It is feasible to conduct a large-scale UK-based trial of Morita Therapy with minor modifications to the pilot trial protocols.

Studiens syfte var att beskriva hur anhöriga till personer med depression upplever sin aktivitetsbalans och vilka strategier som främjar aktivitetsbalans. Studien antog en kvalitativ induktiv ansats för att fokusera på deltagarnas beskrivningar. Ändamålsenligt urval skedde utifrån kriterier. Sex deltagare ingick i studien. Data samlades in via semistrukturerade intervjuer med öppna frågor och analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Analysen resulterade i ett övergripande tema “När oron och ovissheten är en del av livet” samt tre kategorier “Rutiner och strategier för att få vardagen i balans”, “Att ha möjlighet till återhämtning och egen tid för välbefinnande”, samt “Oron kring framtiden, strategier och dess påverkan på det dagliga livet”. Resultatet visar hur deltagarnas upplevelse av oro och ovisshet präglade deras vardag av att alltid behövas finnas till hands, vilket inverkade på deras aktivitetsbalans. Deltagarna skapade strikta rutiner och utvecklade strategier för att få vardagens aktiviteter att fungera. Riskfaktorer såsom komplexa aktivitetsmönster, minimalt med tid för återhämtning, egen tid samt oron inför framtiden, präglade deltagarna i deras vardag. Resultatet av denna studie kan bidra till ökade kunskaper om hur anhöriga upplever det dagliga livet och dess svårigheter för att kunna upprätthålla en god aktivitetsbalans. Vidare kan strategierna de använde för att främja balans i vardagen även vara till gagn för arbetsterapeuter i deras arbete med att stödja anhöriga till personer med depression.<br>The aim of the study was to describe how relatives of people with depression experience their occupational balance and which strategies promotes occupational balance. The study adopted a qualitative inductive approach in order to focus on the participants' descriptions. A purposeful selection took place based on criteria. Six participants were included in the study. Data were generated through semistructured open-ended interviews and were analyzed by qualitative content analysis. The analysis resulted in one overall theme “When the worry and uncertainty are a part of life” and three categories “Routines and strategies for balancing everyday life","Being able to recover and own time for well-being", and "Worries about the future, strategies and its impact on everyday life". The study results showed how the participants' experience of concern and uncertainty characterized their everyday lives and influenced their occupational balance. Participants were affected by always having to be available, creating rigorous routines and developing strategies to make everyday activities work. Even factors and activities in everyday life that affected their own health as well as concerns for the future, characterized participants everyday life. The outcome of this study can contribute to increased knowledge of how relatives experience everyday life and its difficulties in maintaining a good occupational balance. Furthermore, the strategies they used to promote balance in everyday life can also be beneficial for occupational therapists in their work to support relatives of people with depression.

Syfte: Syftet med examensarbetet var att beskriva arbetsterapeutiska åtgärder och deras inverkan för vuxna personer med depression eller depression tillsammans med ångestsyndrom, samt om dessa åtgärder kan vara ett komplement till antidepressiva läkemedel. Metod: Scoping review användes för att besvara syftet genom att kartlägga och sammanfatta artiklar inom området. Stegen innefattade identifiera forskningsfråga, identifiera relevanta studier, val av studie, datakartläggning samt samla, sammanfatta och rapportera resultat. Resultat: Resultatet sammanställdes i följande teman; interventionernas genomförande, copingstrategier, uttryckande aktiviteter och interventionernas inverkan med respektive underteman. Flertalet artiklar med olika genomföranden och former av interventioner gav minskning av depressiva symtom och/eller ångestsymtom. En hantverksintervention diskuterades som komplement till antidepressiva läkemedel. Slutsats: Examensarbetet visar flera olika arbetsterapeutiska interventioner som kan minska depression eller depression tillsammans med ångestsyndrom. Arbetsterapi beskrivs sällan som komplement till antidepressiva läkemedel och professionen uppmärksammas inte i riktlinjerna inom denna målgrupp. Dock visar examensarbetet att arbetsterapeutiska interventioner i grupp och genomförande av aktiviteter är betydelsefullt i behandlingen. Vidare att personer är i behov av olika slags interventioner och därav behöver fler alternativa behandlingar, vilket i detta examensarbete visar på att det kan vara arbetsterapi.<br>Background: Depression is a major public health problem and the use of antidepressant medicine continues to increase in the Swedish population. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe occupational therapy interventions and their effects for adults with depression or depression along with anxiety disorders, and describe if these interventions can be a complement to antidepressant medicine. Method: The method scoping review, was applied to answer the aim and the issues through charting and summarizing articles within the subject. The steps included identifying the research question and relevant studies, study selection, charting the data and collating, summarizing, and reporting the results. Result: The results were compiled in the following themes; the implementation of the interventions, copingstrategies, expressive activities and the impact of the interventions with respective sub-themes. Most of the articles with different implementations and forms of interventions resulted in reduce depressive and / or anxiety symptoms. A handicraft intervention was discussed as a complement to antidepressant medicine. Conslusion: The study shows several different occupational therapeutic interventions that can reduce depression or depression along with anxiety disorders. Occupational therapy is seldom described as a complement to antidepressant medicine and the profession isn't noticed in the guidelines of this target group. However, the study shows that occupational therapeutic interventions in groups and the performance of activities are important in treatment. Furthermore, people need different kinds of interventions and more alternative treatments, which in this study shows that it can be occupational therapy.

Thesis (M Med (Family Medicine)) -- University of Limpopo, 2010.<br>Depression commonly Occurs in chronic diseases such as HIV-AIDS and "Depression makes chronic disease worse: WHO", depression is expected to become the second-leading cause of disease burden by
the year 2020, after heart disease. Depression can exacerbate chronic disease (WHO, 2007, Kerr L.K. & Kerr L.D., 2001).
From the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (2009), it has been confirmed that depression is very common in people
living with HIV/AIDS and the rate of depression among them was
estimated as high as 60%. This was previously confirmed by Moosa
and Jeenah (2007).'
In Tanzania life events were found to be part in the aetiology of depression and that the rates had increased in recent years (Mbatia
et aI., 2009).The authors recommend the strengthening of training of primary health care workers to detect depression and provide pharmacological and psychological treatment.
The South African Journal of Psychiatry, states that depression in the world is exceedingly common in the general population. The lifetime prevalence rates are between nine to 20%. In chronic
diseases the rate of depression is between 15 to 360/0,which is high.
(Moosa & Jeenah, 2007).
Untreated depression can lead to missing medication doses and lower the patient's quality of life (aidsinfonet.org, 2009). It has also been established that depression is linked to poor Highly Anti¬retroviral Therapy (HAART) adherence (Kacanek D., Jacobson D.L.,
Spiegelman D., Wanke c., Isaac R. & Wilson LB., 2010). Primary
care based aualitv improvement programs for depression have
shown to improve the quality of care, satisfaction with care and health outcomes, functioning, economic productivity and household wealth at reasonable cost (WHO 2010, Kumar & Encinosa W., 2009, Hoberg M.A. et aI., 2008).
Study setting
The study was conducted in the Rustenburg district of North West province. The comprehensive management of HIV/AIDS is part of the district health system that is implemented in this province. Voluntary Counselling and Testing (VCT) is offered to patients at the clinics or health centre (Primary Health care facilities). A positive rapid test, done in the clinic or health centre, is followed by collection of blood for confirmation, using a second rapid test and two Enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) and assessing CD4 levels at the h.ospital's laboratory.
Patients with two rapid tests and two ELISA positives, and a CD4 of less than 200 or clinical stage three, according to revised World Health Organisation (WHO) clinical staging of HIV/AIDS (J.G. Barlett, J.E. Gallant & F.M. Conradie, 2008) are referred to wellness
clinic / Job Shimankana Tabane (JST) hospital, for initiation of Anti¬Retroviral Therapy (ART). Once stable on treatment for more than six months, patients are referred down to the nearest clinic or health centre for follow up.
Why is the study necessary?
As a medical officer at one of the down referral primary health care facilities, the researcher encountered patients who were on antiretroviral therapy, that frequently presented with symptoms consistent with depression but these patients were not aware of the depression.
x
The researcher became concerned about the lack of identification of depression among adult patients on antiretroviral therapy for
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in my district, with subsequent lack of appropriate management. After conducting an informal enquiry from some of the patients about symptoms that could be attributed to depression, the researcher became convinced
that most of the patients were depressed, although they were not aware of it.
The magnitude of the problem had not been explored in Rustenburg before. This is when the researcher decided to conduct a study on screening for depression amongst adult patients on antiretroviral therapy for human immunodeficiency virus in my district. The result of this study will inform the development of protocols used in the provision of comprehensive care to these patients.
Methodoloav
A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted amongst adult patients on antiretroviral therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) who attended one clinic and two health centres, all three accredited in terms of HIV management, in Rustenburg district (South Africa) during December 2009.
A hundred and seventeen (117) adult patients, who consulted three Health Centres and agreed to participate in the study were sequentially selected for inclusion in the study.
A questionnaire, adapted from the World Health Organization's (WHOs), Zung self-rating depression score by a trained nurse, was used to evaluate depression among the participants. Descriptive analysis of the data was done.
The Medical Research, Ethics and Publications Committee (MREC) of the University of Limpopo/ Medunsa campus approved the intended study (Registration Number: MREC/M/29/2009).
Results
Amongst the 117 participants 81(69.2 %) had mild depression, 2 (1.7%) had moderate depression, 1(0.9 %) had severe depression and 33 (28.2%) did not have depression. Depression was equally common amongst males and females, 77.1% for males and 69.5%
for females. Depression was most common on patients taking a regimen that contains efavirens, lamivudine and stavudine.
Conclusion
Depression is common among adult patients on antlretroviral therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) attending primary health care facilities in Rustcenburg District. Most of the patients are mildly depressed, as demonstrated by this study research.

This thesis contributes new knowledge to the field of arts therapies and their relevance in the treatment of depression in adults. The global burden of depression means that available treatments do not address all areas within the complexity of the condition and arts therapies may potentially present a relevant alternative by offering opportunities for non-verbal expression and exploration of creativity. Literature up to date does not offer comprehensive enough description of arts therapies practice and therefore establishing of credible evidence has not been possible. This thesis addresses the gap by exploring the nature of arts therapies practice and its value in the treatment of depression. The research consists of two phases: phase 1 provides a description of arts therapies practice with depression in the UK based on data collected from 395 survey respondents, while phase 2 evaluates group brief art therapy for adults experiencing mild to moderate depression. The project employs mixed methodologies within a creative research design incorporating surveys, interviews, arts-based inquiry and a pilot clinical study to examine multiple perspectives and offer findings meaningful to diverse audience. This project establishes that depression is a common condition among arts therapists’ clients while some of the practitioners consider work with depression their main area of professional interest. It further finds that the therapists address depression through the use of humanistic, psychodynamic and integrative approaches and discovers that certain areas of the therapy process have particular relevance in the treatment of depression (e.g. time, group work, motivation, reconnecting). The pilot clinical study concludes with decrease of depression levels and increase of subjectively perceived wellbeing in all participants immediately after nine sessions of art therapy and in the follow-up. Participants’ experiences, researcher’s observations and arts-based reflections on the therapy process highlight the potential value of arts therapies in areas relating to, among others: connection and sharing, awareness of others and self, sense of achievement, self-expression and regain of meaning. The findings are integrated in the final discussion, which proposes a set of concepts particularly relevant to the treatment of adult depression through arts therapies. This research provides the first comprehensive description of arts therapists’ work with depression in the UK and confirms the potential of this practice to be effective, which is relevant to health professionals and may lead to increased involvement of arts therapies in mainstream healthcare. The particular value of this project lies in shaping the basis for further explorations in the form of larger RCTs as well as demonstrating relevance and superiority of creative research designs in evaluating arts therapies.

Section A summarises theory and research relevant to understanding the interaction between intimate-partnership and depressive relapse. Interpersonal theories of depression are introduced. Following this, extant empirical studies examining the effects of interpersonal processes on depressive relapse are critically evaluated. As these studies do not consider how depressive relapse might affect the intimate-partner over time, a separate body of literature examining the impact of depression on intimate-partners is reviewed. Limitations and gaps in the existing evidence-base are discussed, and areas for future research are outlined, such as studies to understand the bidirectional interaction and to explore alternative interventions that enable both partners to cope with relapses. Section B presents a Grounded Theory study of the process of engaging in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), which is a relapse prevention strategy for depression, as an intimate-partnership. Twelve participants took part in a semi-structured interview about their experience of the MBCT course. These data were triangulated with sessional data from an MBCT course and facilitator validation. The proposed theory captured the ‘process of learning new mindfulness skills together’. While intimate-partnerships who engaged in an MBCT course seemed to learn similar mindfulness skills as in individual MBCT courses, learning as a partnership seemed to facilitate home practice, attendance and a sense of mutual support, which led to unique outcomes for the partnership and their sense of responsibility for each others’ wellbeing. Limitations and implications are discussed. Section C provides a critical appraisal of the process of conducting this research study, including the researcher’s learning experience, implications for clinical practice and future research.

Ångest och depression är vanliga sökorsaker inom primärvården och klassas idag som folksjukdomar i Sverige. Svenska vårdcentraler har svårt att möta vårdbehovet kring psykisk ohälsa, och det finns därför anledning att utforska nya behandlingsalternativ för att effektivisera vården. I denna studie användes en kontrollerad mellangruppsdesign i syfte att undersöka hur Compassionfokuserad terapi (CFT) i grupp påverkar primärvårdspatienters grad av ångest och depression, samt huruvida detta skiljer sig från sedvanlig behandling i form av kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT). Designen omfattade tre grupper; en interventionsgrupp (n = 20) som erhöll CFT, en aktiv kontrollgrupp (n = 12) som erhöll KBT, samt en passiv kontrollgrupp (n = 20) bestående av psykologstudenter som ej erhöll behandling i någon form. Självskattningsformulären Beck’s Depression Inventory II, Beck’s Anxiety Inventory samt Self-Compassion Scale administrerades vid två tillfällen i samtliga grupper. Förändringarna undersöktes med hjälp av t-test, variansanalys för upprepade mätningar samt effektstorlekar. Resultaten påvisade en signifikant skillnad mellan de grupper som erhållit behandling och den passiva kontrollgruppen men ingen signifikant skillnad mellan den aktiva kontrollgruppen och interventionsgruppen. Dock återfanns en större effektstorlek gällande depression för interventionsgruppen jämfört med den aktiva kontrollgruppen. Resultaten indikerar att CFT i grupp kan vara en effektiv behandling för primärvårdspatienter med ångest och depression. Vidare forskning efterfrågas för att undersöka de långsiktiga effekterna av CFT.<br>Anxiety and depression are conditions commonly occurring within primary health care and is currently a major health scourge in Sweden. Swedish primary health care centers are facing challenges in meeting the needs concerning mental illness, and therefore the exploration of new options for treatment is warranted for improved effectiveness. In this study a controlled between-group design was used in the aim of exploring how group delivered Compassion focused therapy (CFT) affects the degree of depression and anxiety in primary healthcare patients, and also whether it differs from treatment as usual consisting of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The design comprised of three groups; an intervention group (n = 20) receiving CFT, an active control group (n = 12) receiving CBT, and a passive control group (n = 20) consisting of psychology students who did not receive any treatment. The self assessment questionnaires Beck’s Depression Inventory II, Beck’s Anxiety Inventory and Self-Compassion Scale was administered at two occasions in all groups. Changes were examined with t-tests, repeated measures analysis of variance and within-group effect sizes. The results showed a significant difference between the groups receiving treatment and the passive control group, but no significant difference between the intervention group and the active control group. However, a larger effect size was found regarding depression within the intervention group compared to the active control group. The results indicate that group delivered CFT may be an effective treatment regarding anxiety and depression in primary health care patients. Further research is warranted to explore the long term effects of CFT.

This thesis combines personal experiences of depression with experimentation of media, and consists of four projects including a set of five postcards, a graduation robe, and a tapestry collection. The final project, and central focus, is a series of 100 digital images that was created to distract the artist from harmful mental breakdowns. The series is aptly named Coping and has become a study on expressions of the mind.
The exploration of the subconscious through art has roots in psychology and influences from several art movements. Psychologist Sigmund Freud recognized the power of the unconscious mind, and his psycho-analytical discoveries influenced artists in both the Surrealist Automatic and Abstract Expression movements (Turner, pgs. 373-374). Artists such as Andre Masson, Joan Miro, and Jackson Pollock experimented with subconscious thoughts, images and techniques. Additionally, contemporary artists such as Yayoi Kusama reference psychological states of being in their work by using specific denotative elements such as pattern, shape and color.
Even though Coping was not initially created with conscious intention, the work proves that art can be both an insight into the subconscious and a powerful coping mechanism.

Given the pervasive, debilitating nature of major depressive disorder, a large body of clinical research has evaluated the efficacy of short-term treatments for depression. Researchers have attempted to understand the complex mechanism of therapeutic change by examining treatment response, which is typically defined as the extent of symptom change between the intake and termination sessions. However, this approach fails to recognize that therapy is a non-linear, dynamic longitudinal process. An alternative approach involves analysis of longitudinal repeated measures process and outcome indicators in order to examine change both during treatment as well as following treatment. In order to evaluate dynamic, longitudinal hypotheses, it is necessary to use an appropriate analytical framework. A structural modelling technique termed Latent Difference Score Analysis (LDS) is well suited for this purpose, allowing for evaluation of longitudinal growth within a time series, while also considering multivariate relationships and determinants.<br>The purpose of this research was to evaluate established theories of depression vulnerability as well as theories of psychotherapy process, both during and following depression treatment. The research described in Chapter 2 examined several theories of the longitudinal relationship between depression and perfectionism during depression treatment, while considering the role of the therapeutic alliance. Longitudinal LDS analyses supported a "personality vulnerability" model of depression, in which perfectionism predicted the subsequent rate of depression change throughout treatment. Results indicate that patients with high levels of perfectionism experience less reduction in their depression scores throughout treatment. Furthermore, the strength of the therapeutic alliance significantly predicted the rate of change in personality vulnerability throughout therapy. The research described in Chapter 3 examined several theories of the longitudinal relationship between depression and stress following treatment termination. Results supported a "stress reactivity" model, in which stressful events led to elevations in the rate of depression change following therapy. Multigroup LDS analysis indicated that stress reactivity only occurred for patients who had been treated with medication, and not for those who had received psychotherapy.<br>These findings have several implications. First, comprehensive analyses of treatment efficacy can move beyond symptom reduction by examining mechanisms underlying treatment response using an appropriate statistical framework. The first paper demonstrates that an efficient route to symptom reduction involves establishing an adequate therapeutic alliance in order to target personality vulnerability. The second paper demonstrates that importance of evaluating treatment efficacy by considering whether a treatment leads to enduring change. Specifically, results indicate that the enduring effects of psychotherapy (in comparison to medication treatments) following treatment termination involves increased resiliency to stressful life events.

Syftet med studien var att beskriva arbetsterapeutiska åtgärder för personer med depression i vuxen ålder. För att besvara studiens syfte valdes en litteraturöversikt för att få en överblick av tidigare forskning och sammanställa till en ny helhet.Data insamlades genom sökning i databaser som resulterade i 12 artiklar som kvalitetsgranskades och analyserades med Fishers (2009) interventionsmodeller som raster. Analysen visade att arbetsterapeutiska åtgärder kunde placeras under tre av interventionsmodellerna och kunde summeras i form av fritidsaktivitet, fritidssysselsättning, fysisk träning, skrivterapier, gruppterapier, coopingstrategier, The Tree Theme Metod, byte av erfarenheter i grupp och livsberättelser. Resultatet visade vidare på att de arbetsterapeutiska åtgärderna är varierande och att det fanns sparsamt vetenskapliga artiklar som tar upp arbetsterapeutiska åtgärder för personer med depression i vuxen ålder. Arbetsterapeutiska åtgärder ger positiva resultat när det gäller åtgärder för personer med depression i vuxen ålder. The Tree Theme Metod (TTM) är en klientcentrerad metod som var mer framträdande i de granskade studierna och författarna kunde summera metoden som betydelsefull åtgärd för arbetsterapeuter att använda i arbete med personer med depression, detta speciellt då depression är ett växande problem i samhället.

While cognitive therapy (CT) is one of the most well-validated and widely used treatments for patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), many individuals remain symptomatic at the end of treatment or drop out prematurely (Cuijpers, van Straten, Anderson, & van Oppen, 2008; Vittengl, Clark, Dunn, & Jarrett, 2007). Evidence suggests that certain types of therapist relational styles, such as one characterized by empathy and support, are facilitative of better therapeutic outcomes (Keijsers, Schaap, & Hoogduin, 1997) and motivational interviewing (MI; Miller & Rollnick, 2002) is a therapeutic approach which emphasizes this type of relational stance. The present study examined whether cognitive therapists exhibit a relational stance that is emphasized in motivational interviewing and whether this relational stance is associated with greater symptomatic improvement in cognitive therapy for depression. The Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity Skills Code (MITI; Moyers, Martin, Manuel, Miller, & Ernst, 2007), an observational coding system originated for assessing fidelity to MI, was used to assess three aspect of MI relational stance (MI Spirit, MI Adherent behaviors, and MI Nonadherent behaviors) among cognitive therapists in a randomized-controlled of CT for individuals with moderate to severe depression. Multilevel modeling was employed to examine the effect of MI relational stance on overall symptom trajectories throughout treatment and subsequent symptom reduction immediately after the use of MI relational stance. In order to rule out early symptom reduction as a potential confound, shared variance between MI relational stance and early symptom reduction was removed. The hypothesis that MI relational stance would be associated with more rapid symptom reduction was confirmed for MI Adherent behaviors but not for MI Spirit or MI Nonadherent behaviors. The prediction that initial depression severity would moderate the effect of MI relational stance on symptomatic improvement was not confirmed; however, a three-way interaction between initial depression severity, MI Adherence, and session number revealed that patients with high initial depression severity did not significantly improve through the course of therapy unless they received high MI Adherence. The hypothesis that MI relational stance in a given session would be associated with a reduction in depressive symptoms in the following sessions across the first four sessions was not confirmed. As predicted, early clinical improvement was not associated with MI relational stance in a later session, suggesting that MI relational stance was not merely an artifact of early clinical improvement. There was no support for the prediction that MI relational stance would be associated with subsequent retention in therapy or the therapeutic alliance. Overall, these findings suggest that a specific type of MI relational stance, MI Adherent behaviors, contribute to more symptomatic improvement. Implications of the role of MI relational stance in cognitive therapy are discussed.
