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

Overcoming depression is a lot like running a long-distance race. No one wakes up one day and completes their first marathon on their very first try. To run a marathon, you need a few things to get started:
Much like running a long-distance race, overcoming depression requires endurance, patience, and commitment as well as a strong and determined will. While running requires you to exercise your body, treatment for depression requires you to exercise your brain.
And just as runners rely on coaches and support systems, so do people with depression rely on mental health providers. Psychiatrists, psychologists, and other licensed mental health professionals have the expertise and training required to help you achieve your mental wellness goals. Let our Thriveworks team members in Bend, OR help you get your life back on track. Reach out today to get started.
The word “depression” is often used as a catchall phrase for a number of depressive disorders. The truth is, different forms of depression can impact our minds and bodies in different ways.
Some of the most common forms of depression include:
Psychiatrists, psychologists, and other mental health experts work to provide the mental and emotional care you need to reduce your symptoms and move forward. Treating depression is often multifaceted; it may require medication in conjunction with therapy such as light therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, or psychoanalysis. Medication can help to reduce symptoms in the short term while therapy can teach you coping mechanisms to help you stave off depression symptoms in the long term.
No matter the process, therapy can be the first step toward relief. Your therapist will assess, diagnose, and treat your disorder as carefully and efficiently as possible. They may also provide prevention tools that you can take with you as you continue your wellness journey. Schedule an appointment with us at Thriveworks in Bend, OR to get started.
