Can Spirituality Help One Cope With Depression?
Depression impacts individuals in many different ways. Our backgrounds, our culture, and our belief systems can play a role in how we tackle depression.
In this workshop, Elliot Smith will explore the ways depression may discourage those with a faith tradition and how various spiritual practices can help individuals cope with symptoms of depression.
If you feel that you are struggling with depression, you don’t have to struggle alone. You can call The National Mental Health Hotline at 866-903-3787 to speak to a professional about depression and get help with mental health resources.
Elliot Smith is the manager of the Spiritual Care department at the Kettering Main Hospital. He joined this department in 2017. He is an ordained minister, holds a Master of Arts in Theology and a Master's in Social Work, and has experience as an individual and group therapist.
