Obsessed With Kicking Depression In The Face ft Dr. Beevers  
Podcast: Get Obsessed : With Living Your Best Life
Published On: Thu Sep 23 2021
Description: Dr. Christopher Beevers talks about digital intervention as a treatment option for people who experience depression and other mental challenges. He shares about deprexis®, a digital depression therapy program, and how this web-based software for depression uses techniques similar to what you’d experience with a healthcare provider. Dr. Beevers views most digital interventions as candidates for first-line treatment. They will not replace medication or traditional therapy. But it’s just another kind of treatment option that is more accessible to people. He believes a platform like deprexis® is less threatening because people don’t have to open up to another human being and worry about being judged. Dr. Christopher Beevers is a Professor (Department of Psychology, the University of Texas at Austin) and Professor and Director of the Institute for Mental Health Research. Dr. Beevers enjoys playing tennis, bike riding, and hiking but not at the same time.
