CBT Worksheets For Depression

Depression is characterized by an extended period of low mood, anhedonia, and reduction in activity. Dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder) is characterized by a depressed mood that occurs for most of the day, more days than not, and has been present for at least two years. Depression is a heterogeneous condition with many different triggers, presentations, and maintaining factors. Cognitive behavioral therapies (including ACT, CBT, CFT, and DBT) are effective evidence-based treatment for depression, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is an effective intervention for preventing the recurrence of depression.
