Professor Willem Kuyken, Director of the Oxford Mindfulness Centre, discusses his new meta-analysis of mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) for recurrent depression. This new study is an important step forward for MBCT which now deserves to be considered alongside other evidence-based treatments for preventing the recurrence of depression. 

Willem also told us about his own personal journey to becoming one of the world's leading mindfulness researchers, and along the way we talked about the evidence for mindfulness-based interventions, the safety and cost-effectiveness of mindfulness, researcher allegiance, mindfulness in schools and how he sees mindfulness fitting into care pathways for people with depression.
