  2. Video

  3. Background • Age: 70 • Gender: Male • Work: Professional Musician, Guitarist, Songwriter, and Producer • Health Status: Still Recovering from Back Injury in 2000, hurting his ability to carry 13 pound Les Paul guitar on stage for several hours.

  4. Background • Family Mental Health: No record of any mental health problems • Family Relationships: Was born an only child, has 3 children with his current wife, and 2 with his ex-wife • Social Relationships: very active with fan base, charities, and other musicians. Went into a depression and did not play music for years after the death of his band mate, Jon Bonham, died at his house of alcohol poisoning.

  5. The Problem • Ever since the death of his band mate, Jon Bonham, Page has suffered from depression, most likely caused by Post-traumatic Stress. • After his death in 1980, Page withdrew from music for several years, effectively breaking up his world renounced band, Led Zeppelin. • Page began a downward spiral of alcoholism and heroin addiction, which kept him in and out of rehab several times.

  6. The Problem • Page eventually began his music career again, forming bands like The Firm in 1984. • Page to this day suffers from depression, and occasional alcohol problems.

  7. Diagnosis • Based on Page’s display of social withdrawal, drug addictions, and alcoholism, I diagnose Jimmy Page with Axis I and Axis IV Dysthymia, or Chronic Depression • While it is obvious he suffers from some sort of depression, his constant progression and regression makes it difficult to accurately diagnose his level of depression.

  8. Intervention

  9. Psychoanalytic Approach • The Psychoanalytic approach would be the typical 1 on 1 talk therapy for depression • This would help Page find and reveal emotions that he might not even be aware of. • Freudian ideas of Psychology are used in Psychoanalytic therapy, as underlying unconscious thoughts come to be revealed

  10. Psychoanalytic Approach • Through coming to understand his unconscious emotions, Page can finally identify the source of his mental health problems. • Through identifying the problem, Page can learn to come to peace with his past.

  11. Humanistic Approach • The humanistic approach emphasizes the ability for people to make good and rational decisions. • Using this approach on Page will help better his decision making and assist him with getting of his alcoholism and his other destructive decisions.

  12. Conclusion • Jimmy Page currently suffers from Axis I and Axis IV Dysthymia, or Chronic Depression. This was caused as a result of post-traumatic stress • By using Psychoanalytic and Humanistic approaches, the source of Page’s can be found and solved. • Perhaps then Page can one day again play to his full potential again.
