It has been quite a while since a started a new mindfulness class so I am truly excited to have just posted the information about my next 4 session mindfulness class on the Mindfulness Based Practices page.

For people who are thinking about entering a psycho-therapeutic relationship for the first time there are undoubtedly some hard questions you are asking. Does this work? Is it worth the time, energy and financial cost?

The short answer is definitely ‘yes’ to all of the above. There is a large body of research that demonstrates that psychotherapy is effective in helping reduce depression, and  anxiety and relieving emotional suffering in general.  The mindfulness approaches which I use in my practice can help prevent relapse for those who have recurrent depression. Mindfulness is also a great way to increase your psychological flexibility.

My colleague Pauline Wallen has written a brief article about some of the other benefits of -therapy. You can see her comments here.
