View Kristin Allpere's profile

What is your go-to approach for depression counseling?

My go-to approach for treating depression is a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), components of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and behavioral activation. I find optimal benefit by helping clients identify and utilize skills that help them practice non-judgment of their feelings, providing psychoeducation to help them gain insight into their depression: the type, what lifestyle modifications might be necessary, and how their early life experiences impact their current experience of depression.

What tools do you teach in depression counseling?

Some examples of the skills I teach when providing depression counseling are as follows:

  • Verbalization of thoughts, feelings, and/or needs to others
  • Identification and engagement in activities that promote health, wellness, and a positive view of themselves
  • Identification of at least three positive traits of themselves
  • Identification and utilization of grounding techniques and coping skills
  • Identification and challenging of cognitive distortions and negative beliefs

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in depression counseling?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression counseling when their depression assessment scores indicate a statistical decline of symptoms over time, when the client verbalizes a decrease in symptoms, and when the client and I are able to identify specific examples of improvement compared to their initial symptomology.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement depression counseling?

In their personal time, clients can supplement counseling by practicing skills learned in therapy, engaging in agreed-upon activities, reviewing their therapy notes (if any), completing any homework or reading resources shared by the counselor, or keeping track of concerns that arise in between sessions so they remember them for the next session.

What should someone do to prepare for starting depression counseling?

To prepare for your first depression counseling session, you should complete any paperwork sent to you ahead of time and come to the session prepared to talk about your symptoms and what you hope to gain overall from counseling.

Starting Depression counseling in Marietta

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 Marietta, GA 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 Marietta, GA 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.

What Is Depression? What are the Symptoms?

Major depressive disorder (MDD), the most common type of depression, also referred to recurrent depression disorder, is when you experience overwhelmingly negative feelings such as worthlessness, hopelessness, anxiety, sadness and irritability, for a period of at least two weeks, and to the extent that your day-to-day functioning is impaired. Other common forms of depression include:

  • Bipolar disorder
  • Seasonal affective disorder
  • Postpartum depression
  • Psychotic depression
  • And more

Going to the grocery store. Making the bed. Taking a shower. Going to sleep. Waking up. Taking care of yourself. It’s like you have a wet paper bag over your head but can’t figure out why breathing is so difficult, why everything is so dark and disorienting. Depression is a threat to all areas of your life. When you’re depressed, you may experience some of the following symptoms:

  • Persistent sadness
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Prolonged feelings of guilt
  • Anxiety
  • Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much (insomnia, hypersomnia)
  • Diminished interest or pleasure in all or almost all activities
  • Significant weight loss or gain
  • Recurrent thoughts of death and suicide
  • Physical ailments that don’t improve after care

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.
