Starting Depression counseling in Franklin

What can counseling do for those who suffer with depression?

Depression counseling can help those with major depression, minor depression, postpartum depression, persistent depressive disorder, and more. The providers at Thriveworks in Franklin, MA will develop a unique treatment plan based on your specific experience, needs, and goals.

Is it worth going to therapy for depression?

It is absolutely worth going to therapy for depression — depression counseling helps people better manage their symptoms and get back to living happier lives again.

How does depression counseling work?

Depression counseling works by helping people pinpoint life problems, distorted thought patterns, and other causes of their depression, then process and work through them in order to mitigate the negative effects those factors have on their lives.

Signs of depression

Common signs of depression include:

  • Consistent low mood
  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Oversleeping or difficulty sleeping
  • Changes in diet (eating much more or less)
  • Withdrawal and isolation
  • Feelings of guilt or worthlessness
  • Feelings of hopelessness
  • Loss of interest in previous hobbies or activities
  • Excessive substance use

Is depression counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks depression counseling in Franklin, MA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How often should you attend depression therapy sessions?

Depression counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, dependent on the severity of one’s depression as well as their needs and preferences.

How much does depression counseling cost?

At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.

Online Therapy, Remote Counseling and Depression in Franklin, MA

Sometimes, life hits us hard. Maybe it was a specific event, like the loss of a loved one, the loss of a job or, the unknown trials that COVID-19 may bring. Maybe you feel like you have continually been hit with a series of heartbreaks and you find it difficult to stay on track with a career or to maintain long-term relationships. Whether sudden or on going, these events can leave us feeling isolated, alone and overwhelmed.

Nobody deserves to go through depression. When it feels like you can’t even get out of bed, reaching out for someone else is likely the last thing that you may be motivated to do. However, this is exactly what you should do. If you could “snap out” of your depression by yourself, you would have already done so. Everyone needs someone to give the support and another perspective that we may not have seen on our own. Our professional, licensed therapists have the insight to present alternative ways of coping and have the experience to bring their expertise with compassion.

They also offer online therapy for depression, so you can access this support and care remotely during this pandemic. That way you can get the help you deserve without having to leave the safety and comfort of your home. Reach out to Thriveworks Franklin to schedule your first online therapy appointment.

What Are the Symptoms of Depression? 

Depression will look different for everyone. Every person, situation, and expectations are different, so every case of depression is also different. Online counseling is a solution that is community driven and safe. We understand the importance of paying attention to leading, reputable health organizations and local government, and that’s why telehealth therapy can be a great option for those who don’t feel safe going outside or can’t because of a shelter-in-place or quarantine notice.

Telehealth counseling might be especially helpful if you are experiencing symptoms of depression such as:

  • Feeling worthless
  • Having no energy (may be called “lazy”)
  • A loss of interest in things that used to bring you joy
  • Mental fog (not thinking straight)
  • Abnormal sleeping patterns (sleeping too much or too little)
  • Unordinary eating habits (eating too much or too little)
  • Irritability
  • Changes in sex drive
  • Feeling down or sad
  • Suicidal thoughts or behavior

Scheduling Online Counseling at Thriveworks Franklin

It’s true that as a collective community, we’re getting hit hard with coronavirus. It’s false that your mental health matters less because of that. The best question you can ask yourself when deciding if you should do online counseling is, “Am I happy with where I’m at right now?” If not, give Thriveworks Franklin online counseling a call today. We accept most insurances, and most insurances cover online counseling for depression. We also have affordable self-pay options that covers online therapy.

The world can feel overwhelming at times, and there’s nothing wrong with that. We all go through lows and highs. Sometimes it can help to have a supportive, empathetic hand to help you through the lows. Thriveworks Franklin is here for you if you are struggling with depression. You can make an appointment by calling (617) 360-7210.

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
