Depression is a complex personal condition that is caused by a combination of biological, psychological and social factors, therefore difficult to define. It is understood that depression is one of the leading causes of disability when left untreated for a long time. The road to recovery and the time it may involve can vary depending on a number of factors. Psychotherapy has long been recognised as one of the most effective ways to treat depression.
