My go-to approach for treating depression is cognitive behavioral therapy. I find the best benefit in CBT because it allows clients to identify negative thought patterns and behavior, process the origins, and reframe and restructure to develop positive thoughts and behaviors.
I teach the following tools in depression counseling: identification of negative thoughts and patterns, exploring the origins of negative thoughts and behaviors, reframing and restructuring, and skills to increase positive thoughts, increase self-confidence, and reduce depression.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression counseling when they begin to see an increase in contentment and elevated mood.
Clients can supplement their time in depression counseling by implementing the tools learned in session while they are outside of therapy.
To prepare for your first depression counseling session, you can begin to identify thoughts or situations that may lead to a depressed mood.

Feelings of hopelessness. A lack of motivation. Disinterest. Disconnect. Exhaustion. This is a mere glimpse at what it’s like to be depressed. Depression, in a nutshell, is a ruthless mental health condition. It can strike without a moment’s notice or develop over a gradual period of time. Depression comes with a persistent feeling of sadness or despair and a lack of interest in day to day living.
If one of your friends or family members were feeling this way, you’d want them to find the right help. This might mean leaning on you for support at times, but it’ll likely involve working closely with a mental health professional, such as a depression therapist. The reality is that we can try to help others who are experiencing symptoms of depression, but true healing will come with the intervention of a professional.
Depression therapy is designed to help people work through their depression symptoms, understand any potential causes, and get back to living as their true selves. The depression therapists and counselors at Thriveworks Troy Counseling in Oakland County are qualified to provide this help. They know that you might be feeling hopeless right now, but they also know that they can help you work through this difficult feeling as well as the other harmful symptoms you are battling. So, consider reaching out. We’re here, and we’re ready to get started when you are. Just call our Thriveworks Troy Counseling office to get started.
We started to detail what it feels like to be depressed, but depression isn’t just mental and emotional—it’s often physical too. In addition to the feelings of hopelessness, lack of motivation, disinterest, disconnect, exhaustion, depression can make sleeping difficult; it can cause you to lose your appetite and weight; it can cause stomach aches and other physical pains. Here is a more comprehensive list of the symptoms you might experience if you’re depressed:
