Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Village Counseling Services’ Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is designed to help people who suffer repeated bouts of depression and chronic unhappiness and is taught and practiced in a group setting. It combines the techniques of cognitive therapy with meditative practices and attitudes based on the cultivation of mindfulness. The heart of this work lies in becoming acquainted with the modes of mind that often characterize mood disorders while simultaneously learning to develop a new relationship to them. MBCT was developed by Zindel Segal, Mark Williams and John Teasdale, based on Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program.
