Many teens experiencing depression have developed patterns of thinking which are persistently pessimistic and/or negative. Since negative thoughts usually lead to negative emotions and circumstances, the depressive cycle tends to perpetually repeat itself. Our programs help teens to actively monitor their thinking and decision making processes. Through teaching teens accountability, we help them learn that they can control their mood by choosing to view all aspects of their lives in a more positive light. Although many teens find this process challenging, with practice they begin to acquire thinking habits that lead to increasingly positive moods. More positive moods and thoughts lead to more positive choices, helping to reverse the depressive cycle.
