What is your go-to approach for depression counseling?

I use CBT, humanistic, solution-focused, and mindfulness therapies to work with individuals dealing with depression. Depression can make individuals feel alone and isolated. Helping them understand that they are not alone and that the therapist is there to listen and understand what they are dealing with allows for a better rapport and progress.

What tools do you teach in depression counseling?

Tools/skills taught during therapy for depression include understanding and learning about depression (psychoeducation), mindfulness, self-care, the importance of routines, and socializing.

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

When the clients report positive changes and improvements in their lives, you know that progress is being made.

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

Clients should work on the skills covered between sessions to progress toward their goals.

What should someone do to prepare for starting depression counseling?

In preparation for the first session, clients should complete all paperwork. Also, they should prepare to answer questions in order for the therapist to gather the needed information to provide the best care.

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 Peachtree City, 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 Peachtree City, 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. 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.

Signs and Symptoms of Depression

Sometimes people experience symptoms of depression but they don’t understand them as symptoms of a mental illness. Instead, they think that it’s normal for them to feel sad and empty, or they are too scared to explore the possibility of depression. It’s important that we understand what it’s like to feel depressed and when we should get help. So, here are the signs and symptoms of depression:

  • Feelings of intense sadness, hopelessness, or despair
  • Loss of interest in most daily activities
  • Weight gain or loss
  • Significant changes in appetite
  • Disruption of sleep patterns
  • Changes in activity, energy levels
  • Fatigue or loss of energy
  • Feelings of worthlessness
  • Guilt or self-hatred
  • Diminished ability to think or concentrate
  • Suicidal thoughts

If the above symptoms hit a little close to home, you might be depressed. And depending on the amount as well as the severity of symptoms, you might have major depression, minor depression, or another form of depression. In any case, it’s important you talk with a professional about your symptoms so that you can find the treatment you need.

I have known Stephanie for over six years and worked side by side with her in a mental health center for part of that time. What comes across first and foremost is her caring and concern for her clients and her determination to see that their needs are met. She brings to her work a wide range of experience and training along with confidence that is reassuring and a comfort to those in distress. She can deal calmly with the most severe issues as well as with problems of daily living. In the time that I've known her, she has been licensed in three different states to practice in a variety of settings. If you come to her in a time of need, in a time of emotional upheaval or difficult questions, I don't think you will find a more competent or more caring therapist.
