True old chap, and different therapies work well for different people. I do though, personally, have a high regard for Person centred therapy.
Person centered therapy? As opposed to what? Self centered therapy? 😉

Actually that was the first form I learned some thirty years ago.

Now I am doing á mxi of diverse types leaning mainly on methods from Person centered therapy enriched with the structural Approach of individual therapy and a few things from behaviour therapy.

From personal knowledge (an immediate family member) I know that ECT does perform miracles in some situations. I also know ECT patients who achieved no benefit, so it's a lucky dip.
