Abstract

This research has started from the framework objective according to which occupational therapy represents a way to intervene in the activation of psychological and physical resources for persons diagnosed with disorders in the depressive spectrum. The working hypotheses that deplored the intervention were: We assume that by activities that define the roles in the family, society and everyday life of people with depressive disorders we will achieve an increase in satisfaction and performance in our daily life with day. We also assume that through the intervention of occupational therapy, in close connection with the analytical assessment of customer specific needs, the degree of psychological recovery, reintegration and social inclusion of people with depressive disorders increases. At the end of the specific intervention, the client is able to positively activate in the management of personal life.
