"There is 10 times more major depression in people born after 1945 than in those born before. This clearly shows that the root cause of most depression is not a chemical imbalance.
Human genes do not change that fast."

"The holders of the ancient natural-magical world-view had an affinity to identify themselves with environment, with the world. Through this identification they attempted to enter internal worlds, the substances of the objects and phenomena. They were led in this way to a high degree of comprehension which was unattainable from an arrogant view coming from above or outside."

with tags

therapy
Working with Indigenous clients challenges us to re-examine our preferred paradigms for psychological practice, and invites us to offer a psychotherapy anchored in Aboriginal ontology and epistemology. The therapeutic modalities recommended most often by Aboriginal writers include using narrative, personal stories or anecdotes, open-ended discussion, positive indirect questioning avoiding direct questioning, yarning, and grief and loss therapies. ‘Just being listened to’ is also considered to be very important.
