I suspect for a lot of people its a combination of physiological and psychological factors. There are many different ways that depression can manifest itself and there are many different potential causes.

It's worth remembering though, that talk therapy also carries risks. A poor practitioner can traumatise their patient through injudicious use of their tools, just as easily as a pill can adversely affect someone physically.
