Abstract

Three different psychological theories of depression, the psychoanalytic, the behavioural and the cognitive-behavioural, and their psychotherapeutic principles are presented. A common, central aim of these therapies is to prevent suicide. But whenever suicidal ideation becomes dominant, the therapeutic method should be changed to a directive, counselling and reassuring form.
