Depression Management Group
We are pleased to offer a Depression Management Skills Group at Cognitive Therapy Orange County. The group is for adults with mild to moderate depression. It has been developed following a cognitive‑behavioral therapy model. The group provides an environment to learn skills and tools for managing negative thoughts and increasing daily activities.
The group is intended to help people who experience depression and have been or are currently in individual psychotherapy treatment and/or are prescribed medication. People who will most benefit from this group are those who want to learn cognitive behavioral skills to decrease the effects of depressed mood.
The group is structured with various components, including education, use of written exercises, such as thought records, and behavioral interventions designed to increase meaningful and fulfilling activity.
The group will be facilitated by licensed psychologist Dimitra Takos, Psy.D. who has extensive training and experience in cognitive behavioral therapy for depression disorders. The group will be held one day per week for 90 minutes.
The group offers open enrollment, so new members are welcome at any time. A brief phone screening is required before the participant's initial session. The full duration of the group is 10 weeks with a one meeting follow up for relapse prevention. The cost of the group is from $25 per session. This group is limited to 8 members.
