My go-to approach for treating depression is explaining how the relationship between what we think and feel influences our behaviors. It's also important to explore the basis of symptoms of depression, whether related to loss and grief, relationship difficulties, or other stressors.
During depression therapy, I teach the following tools:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression therapy when they are able to identify moments in which their symptoms were triggered by cognitive distortions, can access and utilize coping skills when needed, and are able to report a more positive outlook.
Clients can supplement their time in depression therapy with books, workbooks, and worksheets on the topic, as well as with online resources, like relevant articles and podcasts. Clients can also prepare themselves for challenging moments by practicing coping skills so that they're readily accessible when needed and be intentional in participating in enjoyable activities to help themselves feel better.
To prepare for your first depression therapy session, you can start by reminding yourself that you can treat your symptoms and improve your mood and quality of life. Change doesn't occur overnight but hard work is worth it.
Depression counseling can help those with major depression, minor depression, postpartum depression, persistent depressive disorder, and more. The providers at Thriveworks in Cornelius, NC will develop a unique treatment plan based on your specific experience, needs, and goals.
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.
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.
Common signs of depression include:

Some of the most common symptoms of depressive disorders include:
Major depressive disorder, also called clinical depression, is marked by a depressed mood for most of the day and a loss of interest in normal activities and relationships. It’s usually diagnosed when these types of symptoms are present for two or more weeks.
Postpartum depression is another type of depression that can be treated by a therapist or counselor. The “baby blues” are common after childbirth but postpartum depression is more severe and longer-lasting than that. Symptoms can include depressed mood, difficulty bonding with your baby, irritability, emotional numbness, fatigue, and restlessness. Working with a licensed mental health professional can help you cope with your feelings and reduce your symptoms.
Are you experiencing symptoms of depression and want to turn things around? Working with a therapist or counselor from Thriveworks Counseling in Cornelius, NC can help. Our compassionate professionals will help you address your symptoms and help you move forward with your life.
Treating depression usually requires some form of psychotherapy. Psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy, involves talking to a mental health provider about your problems. During the course of psychotherapy, you’ll learn about your condition and how to improve your mood and adjust your thoughts to reduce symptoms and feel better.
Psychotherapy can help you:
Mental health care is different for everyone but some of the steps are often the same. Your provider will get to know you over the course of your sessions. They’ll ask questions about your symptoms, your medical history, and your current stressors. They’ll create a personalized treatment plan with your needs in mind using a therapeutic technique like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, or psychoanalysis. Your provider will cater future sessions to your concerns and needs — you might learn new stress-reduction techniques, investigate a specific symptom that’s bothering you, or talk about childhood trauma.
One of the most important things to understand about psychotherapy is that you’re in the driver’s seat. You’ll move at your own pace and set the tone for each session. Your Thriveworks therapist or counselor in Cornelius, NC will work with you collaboratively to make sure you get what you need out of each session.
