In this episode, Dr. David Burns, a Stanford psychiatrist and a true legend in the world of psychology, joins us on the Inner Path Seekers podcast to talk about depression and how to truly cure it. Dr. Burns has been at the forefront of pushing the mental health space forward.

You'll learn more about what really causes depression, why the chemical imbalance theory is flawed, and how antidepressants are no more effective than a placebo. You'll also discover various tools, techniques, and insights to help yourself if you're struggling with depression or to support someone you know who is struggling with depression.
