To demonstrate how to routinely’cure’ depression - acute, severe, chronic, and treatment resistant - through’Breakthrough Intimacy’ - closeness between the patient and his/her partner far greater than their previous maximum experience.

Working in three-way teamwork, guided by couples’ daily subjective self-rating, the couple's personalities are transformed in such ways that depression disappears as it becomes unnecessary. Case examples with patients’ graphs will show how personality is transformed through 4 stages. All the tools necessary to practice this method by participants after the workshop are offered.

Of the 1,170 patients treated (most of them showing varying degree of depression) over the last 20 years, 48% of patients with various diagnoses reached a level of adjustment beyond their previous maximum level. 31% reached a level more than twice, 24% reached more than three times, 20% reached more than four times, 16% reached more than five times, and 7.6% reached more than ten times their previous maximum level of adjustment according to their own daily subjective self-rating. Of those who failed to reach their previous maximum level at premature terminations, 75% showed significant improvement in their overall adjustment, and 77% showed significant reduction of their symptoms. However, 24% showed significant reduction of overall adjustment, and 22% showed significant aggravation of their initial symptoms at the time of their termination during the initial phase of therapy, when symptoms typically worsen.

Depression is caused by existing personality of patient, which can be transformed through therapy, causing depression to disappear.
