Can lifestyle changes really be as effective as therapy for depression? In Episode 100 of Health Coach Talk, Dr. Sandi celebrates the milestone with a solo episode focused on the clinical and cost-effectiveness of lifestyle therapy in comparison to psychotherapy for reducing depression. She highlights an Australian study published in The Lancet that found lifestyle therapy, including nutrition and physical activity guidance, to be as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in reducing depression. Dr. Sandi discusses how health coaches, through group support and lifestyle modifications, could play a crucial role in improving mental health outcomes, offering an accessible, cost-effective alternative to traditional therapy.
