Despite many books focused on helping people overcome depression, few provide daily strategies to use in the moment when the going gets tough. Depression can dampen joy and make life more difficult--even when it isn't at crisis level. Psychologist and depression expert Christopher R. Martell shares a wealth of tips and go-to strategies for getting through hard days and reengaging with the world in this user-friendly book. Short, clearly formatted chapters offer a menu of motivating, evidence-based techniques that readers can try out whenever they need, plus vivid stories and downloadable practical tools. From getting out of bed to dealing with a difficult family member to achieving professional goals, Dr. Martell shows how to solve everyday problems and live well with depression, one doable step at a time.
Christopher Martell, PhD, ABPP, is Professor of Practice in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. He is also Clinic Director at the Psychological Services Center, the training clinic for doctoral students at UMass. Previously, Dr. Martell had a private practice in Seattle for over 20 years. He has trained and supervised clinicians and provided research consultation around the world, with a focus on behavioral activation treatment for depression.
