Follow-up after intervention reveals substantial changes in the client's cognition and behavior; the client is able to challenge unhelpful beliefs, adjust their behavior more appropriately, and experience more positive emotions. The client also enhances their knowledge related to depression and becomes proficient in applying new skills.
