Behavioral Activation (BA) is an evidenced-based intervention to assist individuals in stopping the loop of depression, low motivation, and the withdrawal of emotions.

The principle of behavioral Activation- The behavioral Activation approach is able to gently reintegrate meaningful activity into daily life. Rather than thinking or feeling a lot, BA tries to take action first, since positive activity will in turn result into an uplifted mood, stronger habits, and a fresh sentiments of power. Depression can actually be dealt with through identifying the behaviors that exacerbate it and substituting unhealthy habits that are driven by depression with healthy, meaningful decisions.

How Behavioral Activation Treatment Works

The theory of Behavioral Activation is premised on the belief that emotion depends on behavior. Depression causes less positive reinforcement of the brain when it compels you to stay away from any activities, further deteriorating the negative cycle. BA also breaks this cycle as it prompts incremental involvement in rewarding behaviours.

Here’s how it works:

1. Identify avoidance patternsWe get to know what you do not want to do, why you do not want to do it and what kind of impact it has on your mood.

2. Develop a structured planThe joint schedule which we develop is a personalized one and promotes activities that are manageable and value-based.

3. Increase positive reinforcementYour brain gets its natural form of emotional reward as you start engaging in meaningful activities; exercise, hobbies, socialization, self care.

4. Build long-term resilienceSmall successes will over time gain confidence, depressive symptoms will be mitigated and sustainable life change will be established.

BA does not impose positivity, it equips you to make actions that will result in an emotional change.
