My name is Iuri T. Melo, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Over the years I have had the honor of treating thousands of individuals who have struggled with depression. Because this is a condition that I have known intimately throughout my life, it has become somewhat of a passion of mine, and perhaps somewhat of an obsession too. This blog is the fulfillment of my interest in the condition, but more than that, it is dedicated to providing you with the best, most up to date, information about depression and how to overpower it. YOU CAN OVERPOWER YOUR DEPRESSION! I find that most people who are depressed feel completely stuck, and are unable to envision most of the options that surround them. These options seem to be just out of their reach… but the truth is that they are not! My purpose is to help you climb out of this slippery dark hole, by enhancing your ability to choose. Remember those words because they are going to play a significant role in your life, as your mind and heart accept that you are not a victim, but a powerful individual, with a gift-like ability to ACT and not be acted upon by whatever circumstance or individual. My Depression Therapy will provide information, tips, skills, and some theory that will provide you with the motivation, and the correct measuring stick by which you will be able to evaluate your life. Feel free to write comments and provide questions that I will address in further articles.
Happy day,
