Recensioner i media

'I have no hesitation recommending Overcoming Depression and Low Mood in adults that in many ways has set the standard for others to try to emulate. The text is consistent with national guidance informing good quality written materials which can give comfort to people struggling with depression and low mood who may otherwise struggle to engage, and furthermore to the mental health practitioners providing support.'Professor Paul Farrand, PhD, PGDip BSc (Hons), chartered medical psychologist and cognitive behavioural therapist is professor of evidence based psychological practice at the University of Exeter and trained as a CBT Therapist.
