Dealing with Depression – Monday 7th November

Dealing With DepressionMon 7th Nov 2016: 7.30pm to 8.30pm Carrigaline Community Centre

Dr Ivan Watson MB BCh BAO a former GP turned pastor guides us through this common struggle with reflections and information from science & spirituality.

Ivan trained as a medical doctor and worked as a GP before becoming a Christian Pastor. He now lives in Cavan and is married to Carol who works as a psychiatric doctor. They have three children aged from 12 to 18. Both Ivan & Carol became interested in mental illness while they were medical students. Ivan talked with many depressed people during his time working in hospitals and as a GP. He acknowledges the usefulness of current treatments for depression in many cases but also senses the need for counseling which takes our spiritual dimension into account. This was one of the factors that led him to leave medical practice and become a full time pastor. This has brought him into contact with many people troubled by a range of issues including depression, anxiety, abuse, addiction and suicidal thoughts. Ivan has a heart for helping people through presenting information and dealing with individual questions.

The audio from the talk is now available for playback below:
