Cutting-edge and accessible psychotherapy to put us back in touch with our emotions - and fast

We were all taught that our thoughts affect our emotions, but in truth it is largely the other way around- we have to experience our emotions to truly understand our thoughts, and our full selves. This is why we should think not only about cognitive behavioural therapy or medication, but also about our emotions, when addressing psychological suffering.

In It's Not Always Depression, pioneering psychotherapist Hilary Jacobs Hendel reveals the most effective techniques for putting us back in touch with the emotions we too often deny - methods which can be used by anyone, any time, anywhere. Drawing on stories from her own practice, she sheds light on the core emotions (such as joy, sadness and fear), defences (anything we do to avoid feeling) and inhibitory emotions (anxiety, shame and guilt), and how understanding their interaction can help us return to mental well-being and be more calm, curious and connected.

Reviews for It's Not Always Depression: A New Theory of Listening to Your Body, Discovering Core Emotions and Reconnecting with Your Authentic Self

What is unique in this book is Hendel's mission to take psychotherapeutic tools and present and rework them in a way that can be used by individuals . . . like Penn and Teller showing us how a magic trick is really done . . . she is able to translate the method in ways that individuals can use for themselves . . . the genius of this book is converting formal psychotherapeutic strategies into a self-help toolbox -- Alan Eppel, Professor of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy Supervisor in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioural Neurosciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario I loved it ... I have drawn my own picture of the change triangle. -- Cathy Rentzenbrink, author of The Last Act of Love and A Manual for Heartache The bottom line is this: if you're a human, I recommend that you read this book. -- Diana Fosha, the founder of AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) and the author of the book's foreword.
