Abstract

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and neuropsychotherapy are all non-pharmacological interventions that have been used in the treatment of depression. This review seeks to investigate the possible advantages of CBT, TMS, and neuropsychotherapy in the treatment of depression. Depression is a debilitating mental health disorder, and it is an extremely prevalent mental condition that is linked to increased illness and death. More than 300 million people suffer from depression worldwide. Depression is estimated to be at a rate of 5.5 percent annually in developed countries and even higher at 6.7 percent amongst young adults. In this review, an overview of the most recent research on depression treatment outcomes using CBT, TMS, and neuropsychotherapy is provided in this review. The results demonstrate the potential for CBT, TMS, and neuropsychotherapy to reduce symptoms of depression and positive treatment outcomes. With information on the possible benefits of CBT, TMS, and neuropsychotherapy for treatment of depression, this review adds to the expanding corpus of research on non-pharmacological interventions for depressive disorders.
