| - ... am curious about a kind of ecology of language / symbolizing (primatologically-informed) approach from a psychotherapeutic / psychiatric perspective (for example, what the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School would teach its MDs) to family dynamics, individual therapy and clinical practice at World University and School - - and - as new approaches in these fields. Now Organize an avatar-mediated-communication re-evaluation counseling group, or one-to-one, in a virtual world, like Second Life, here through World University and School - see Harvey Jackins' "Re-evaluation counseling" below. Weil MD, Andrew. 2010. Managing Stress. drweil.com Weil MD, Andrew. 2010. Generalized Anxiety Disorder. drweil.com Weil MD, Andrew. 2010. Natural Depression Treatment. drweil.com 5-9 servings of fruit, grains, vegetables, beans and 2 eggs per day? Exercise (30 mins. of walking; Yoga poses? - ; Contact Improvisation? - ) Re-evaluation counseling in Second Life. (Someone will need to orchestrate this, - e.g. see the Re-evaluation Counseling web site below, as one approach. It's easy to start now). Seeing and talking with a psychiatrist can be a very sensible thing to do. Psychodynamic therapy works with interactive dynamics, explicitly. John Money's Concepts of Determinism, as a start? See Vaillant below in videos. Benson MD, Herbert. 1972. The Relaxation Response. relaxationresponse.org/steps/ Did you get ... 8-11 hours of sleep?, 5-9 servings of fruits, grains, vegetables and grains?, an egg or two?, 30 minutes of dancing/walking/movement?, Flax seed oil for omega fatty acids?, Antioxidants (See Dr. Andy Weil's "What's So Special About Antioxidants?" - )?, Ginseng (Yogi tea?) for vitality (See Dr. Andy Weil's "Fighting Fatigue" - )?, a multivitamin? Think improving bodymind neurophysiology as a basis. Piver, Susan. 2010. The Self-Healing Benefits of Meditation. drweil.com 8-11 hours of sleep per night while in psychotherapy? Learn to talk in new ways about what is challenging you, with someone skilled in listening and problem-solving like a psychotherapist, and/or mutually with a re-evaluation counselor, virtually - and for free. (If you'd like to start this, or organize this, let WUaS know at the email address on the WUaS front page). See this WUaS page for re-evaluation counseling. Allow language to become central to understanding and communicating for your bodymind.
* I'm curious both about an 'ecology of attention,' (where ecology refers to what is examined in, for example, this textbook: Elements of Ecology (8th Edition)) with implications for psychiatry, psychology, as well as psychotherapy, within the family in particular, as well as an ecology of sociocultural processes, such as, for example, the effects of Quaker socioculture, as one of millions of 'sociocultural processes' and their effects, in modernity, - on neurophysiology, and, in terms of 'troopbondage' (see John Money 1988) - vis-a-vis other groups (e.g. city hall folks in S.F., tourists, GLBTQ, the Chinese American community, homeless people, musical groups, etc., as human primates), - both of which may make interesting, WUaS, wiki, Subject pages in the future.

* Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the most studied form of psychotherapy for depression, thought to work by teaching clients to learn a set of cognitive and behavioral skills, which they can employ on their own.
* Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), is a recently developed class-based program designed to prevent relapse. A review of four studies its effectiveness suggests that MBCT may have an additive effect when provided with the usual care in patients who have had three or more depressive episodes, although the usual care did not include antidepressant treatment or any psychotherapy, and the improvement observed may have reflected non-specific or placebo effects.
* Interpersonal psychotherapy focuses on the social and interpersonal triggers that may cause depression. Here, the therapy takes a structured course with a set number of weekly sessions (often 12) as in the case of CBT, however the focus is on relationships with others. Therapy can be used to help a person develop or improve interpersonal skills in order to allow him or her to communicate more effectively and reduce stress.
* Psychoanalysis, a school of thought founded by Sigmund Freud that emphasizes the resolution of unconscious mental conflicts, is used by its practitioners to treat clients presenting with major depression.
* Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a more widely practiced, eclectic technique, loosely based on psychoanalysis and has an additional social and interpersonal focus.
* Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
* Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT)
