Participants will be selected from patients, aged between 18 and 70 years, referred by their general practitioner to mental health care organization HSK-groep. During the first diagnostic assessment we will screen patients for criteria of a recurrent depressive disorder. Only patients who have a total score of 11 or higher on the Quick inventory of Depressive Symptomatology – Self Report (QIDS-SR), indicating at least a moderate level of depressive symptoms, are admitted to this study. Use of anti-depressive medication is allowed as long as patients do not change medication or dose.
Exclusion criteria for the study are a high risk of psychosis or suicide, organic brain syndrome, severe substance-abuse, borderline or antisocial personality disorder, inability for patients to focus sufficiently on their treatment, inability for patients to fill out questionnaires or having other problems taking precedence over their depression.
