Therrie Rosenvald, a former journalist, has suffered from depression for most of her life. In 2003 Therrie attended the Cognitive Behaviour Therapy workshop at Toowong Private Hospital, Toowong, Brisbane, Australia, where she met Professor Tian Oei. They decided to write a book on how to manage depression with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy based on Therrie’s experience as a fellow sufferer and Professor Oei’s professional knowledge.
