Using simple language for the everyday reader, Buried Secrets gives descriptive accounts from real people who have been depressed with who they are, and how they’ve changed their personality for the better using psychotherapy or ‘the talking cure’.
Do you have a secret? No? Think again...


 


Using simple
language for the everyday reader, Buried Secrets gives
descriptive accounts from real people who have been depressed with who they
are, and how they’ve changed their personality for the better using psychotherapy
or ‘the talking cure’. Regardless of age, unwelcome feelings from early
memories can return to haunt the present and cause distress, anxiety, mild
depression and feelings of revenge. Section one recounts reconstructed stories
that indicate how some older people have conquered this and improved their
lifestyle, while section two tells of changes made by younger people for the
better.


 


The book
states that cognitive, positive attributions are memorised and recalled - so
why not negative ones? They can be negotiated with and worked through, either
with or without support. One can learn that through grieving these feelings,
forgiving and moving forward can enhance your life. Buried Secrets leads the way to a brighter future.


 


As Savi says:
“Many people
and especially the young, undergo emotional suffering through not being able to
sort out their problems without some support. Medication relieves anxiety and
stress, but does not get to the root of the problem like ‘the talking cure’.”

Cambridge-based Savi McKenzie-Smith is a psychotherapist - practised, lectured and tutored in the NHS and in private practice. Savi also pioneered the application of the Infant Observation Method to observe institutionalised old people, to understand their emotional need - this is currently utilised in some training courses. She now specialises in working therapeutically with depressed older adults.
