I've developed a course on Trauma Informed Care and it was hard not to make it too dark, even though the focus was on the benefits of creating a trauma informed environment. I ended up putting a disclaimer on the front screen saying that some images or topics could be challenging for some people.

Hard to advise without knowing more about your intentions for the course, but one way to avoid "too depressing" territory is to not limit the course to psychological problems ("abnormal psychology") but to also include the research around happiness ("positive psychology"). Both are aspects of mental health, so don't leave out the positive.

Cheers!
