\nIt 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<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

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?<\/p>\n

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 \u00a0anxiety and relieving emotional suffering in general. \u00a0The 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.<\/p>\n

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