What is your go-to approach for depression counseling?

One of the best approaches for treating depression is using dialectical behavior therapy skills.

What tools do you teach in depression counseling?

DBT skills are taught as effective coping skills as applicable to each person's situation.

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

I see progress when clients start to feel better and see the effectiveness of the new skills.

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

Clients can supplement their time in depression counseling by practicing the new skills outside of sessions and seeing how they work.

What should someone do to prepare for starting depression counseling?

Clients can think about the goals they have for counseling.

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 Pearland, 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 Pearland, 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 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 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.

Need more help deciding?

Depression is a serious mental health issue that can sneak up on us if we’re unaware of what it looks like. Even though depression can manifest in different ways for everyone, some general signs of depression are: 

  • Feeling distant from loved ones and friends 
  • Decreased work performance
  • Lack of interest in sex, hobbies, or relationships 
  • Feeling chronically fatigued
  • Abusing drugs and alcohol to cope with emotional pain 

At Thriveworks in Pearland, TX, we believe that depression therapy is a way to take matters back into your own hands and start reclaiming your life. If you think you could benefit from talking to one of our depression therapists, please don’t hesitate to reach out. 

Depression Symptoms and Treatment 

Depression is about more than feeling constantly miserable. For some, it becomes a taxing cycle of ups and downs or a sense of emotional numbness that harms both themselves and those around them. Depression can be triggered by difficult themes, such as: 

  • Breakups 
  • Divorce 
  • Financial issues 
  • Death 
  • Undiagnosed mental health conditions 
  • Chronic health conditions 
  • Stress from work or your home life

Should I Seek Therapy for Depression?

When you choose to prioritize your mental health through Thriveworks, you’re going to be supported by our scheduling specialists as they use your feedback to help you find a therapist, psychologist, or psychiatric nurse practitioner that’s right for you. 

Even though depression is unique for each client and will affect everyone a little differently, mental health professionals recognize several different varieties of this mood disorder. Some of the most common types of depression are: 

  •      Postpartum depression: Postpartum depression is a mood disorder that arises after a woman gives birth. Women who undergo caesarian sections or experience a miscarriage are even more likely to experience this type of depression.
  •     Major depressive disorder: This condition captures the popular perception of depression. Those with major depression experience emotional detachment and hopelessness. These factors usually take away from their work, relationships, and hobbies. 
  •     Minor depression: As the name suggests, minor depression is related to major depression—it’s typically severe in its effect and duration. Still, those with this condition will seem distant, withdrawn, or overwhelmed with sadness. Minor depression can be harder to detect. 
  •     Bipolar disorder: This mental health condition can alter someone’s emotions wildly, ranging from elation in one moment to overwhelming despair in the next. Those with bipolar disorder might find it hard to maintain close relationships or jobs due to their unpredictable mood swings. 

Depression can present itself in many different ways, so those who may be suffering from this condition must understand that the mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Pearland, TX can assist them.

V Ashleigh was excellent. I wish we had more sessions with her but insurance tangled us up. Counseling via Zoom was my first. It takes longer to get acquainted when not in person. But it was convenient.
