Dude. Skepticism is healthy but often that which you're running from is kind of what is causing you to run. You know? So the fact that you immediately say that you don't want to talk about your childhood sort of makes me think that's exactly what you need to be doing.
I don't mean to add insult to injury. I spent my first year of therapy assiduously not talking about my childhood. But it's kind of important stuff. Or can be.
You can absolutely choose one of the highly structured, short-term, solution-focused psychotherapies and see how you feel with it. In my experience, especially if your depression is recurring or chronic, you have to give it the time it needs and wade right in.
