There's a technique Kath brought up-she said it's been really helpful:

And some people swear by this:
There's also farm therapy. They are for drug rehabilitation, that I know of. People go to a farm for a few months and totally live off the land, a self-sufficient micro community. I bet the same thing can be done for some mental conditions, sort of like a massive cognitive therapy treatment via life. I've read that the farm therapy treatment has been a success.
Speaking of dolphins and farms, I wonder if there are more types of animal-type therapies out there? And you know how some animals can detect earthquakes, I wonder if there is a way to measure animals' reactions, if they can assess animals' reaction to changes in neurochemistry in people? Sort of like how horses and dogs can sense fear. I bet if someone really wanted to find a way to do this, they could.
Forgot to post a link about the Mozart effect:
