In this workshop, Elliot Smith will explore the ways depression can especially discourage those with a faith tradition and how various spiritual practices can help cope with symptoms of depression.

If you feel that you are struggling with depression, you don’t have to struggle alone. You can call The National Mental Health Hotline at 866-903-3787 to speak to a professional about depression and get help with mental health resources.
