Starting Depression counseling

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 Grand Prairie, TX 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 Grand Prairie, TX 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 have therapy for depression?

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 take most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay a $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Depression — What Are the Causes and Symptoms?

Depression is a mood disorder, meaning it’s a disorder that primarily affects your emotional state. That’s why people can’t “snap out of” a depressive disorder. To alleviate the potency of your thoughts during a depressive episode, people usually need guidance and healthy coping mechanisms.

While it’s unknown what the exact causes of depressive disorders are, what we do know is that factors such as traumatic events, gender, genetic predispositions, and other physical and mental illnesses can have an influence on depression symptoms. There are many different symptoms that can indicate you’re dealing with depression, including:

  • Feelings of guilt, helplessness, and pessimism
  • Fatigue, insomnia, or hypersomnia
  • Low-self esteem
  • Trouble concentrating and making decisions
  • Loss of interest in hobbies you once found pleasurable
  • Appetite loss or overeating
  • Substance abuse
  • Thoughts of suicide or self-harm

Different types of depression can be diagnosed based on what symptoms you experience, when you experience them, and the amount of time you experience them. Some of these include:

  • Major depressive disorder
  • Persistent depressive disorder
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Postpartum depression
  • Seasonal affective disorder

Consulting with one of our licensed mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Grand Prairie, TX, will allow you to gain insight into what kind of depression you might be facing and how to work through it.

How Can Depression Therapy Help?

When you start therapy or counseling, your provider will develop a treatment plan that addresses your specific symptoms. This means that treating depression can look a bit different for everyone.

Generally, treatment methodologies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) can significantly benefit people with depression. These forms of therapy help you learn to cope with and overcome negative thought patterns.

You might learn to implement balanced self-talk and accurate self-evaluation, which can help you find more peace and control over your emotional responses. It is also common for talk therapy to be supplemented with medication to help you best manage your depression.

At Thriveworks in Grand Prairie, TX, you can meet with your counselor through in-person or online sessions. Having a person to provide you with individualized care can be instrumental to taking control of your mental health.

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.
