The Hope in Depression course is a 6-session course for people experiencing mild to moderate depression and or anxiety and those supporting anyone that is suffering. During the course attendees will hear personal stories and receive practical information and skills that have been clinically shown to help alleviate depression and anxiety. A range of mental health professionals will share information that people can utilise for their own recovery and self-care. The information in the course may not be applicable to those suffering more complex mental health issues, or who are suffering severely, therefore we regret, to comply with ethical guidelines, and we may not be able to admit those guests. The course is run in a warm, caring, confidential, and encouraging environment.
