Phone Therapy

"Depressed people assigned to phone therapy were more apt to stick with an 18-week treatment plan than those who were told to attend in-person sessions.  More than 70% of depression sufferers face obstacles with face-to-face care," David C. Mohr. Ph.D. Northwestern University

Another affirmation for getting either therapy or life coaching via the phone.  Caregivers may have a very difficult time getting away to go to appointments, but can manage time to be on the phone.   And, most certainly, caregivers are at a risk for depression.  But, even if you are not depressed, caregivers need support.  Caregiving is a tremendously stressful and isolating task.  Even if you are not depressed, the stress of caregiving prevents us from having our most creative thinking -- a skilled listener can help you find the best options among your choices.  Please consider getting yourself the support of a therapist, life coach, dear friend or support group.  You deserve it.
