Depression Therapy
Plainview, NY
Depression is marked by persistent and severe depressed mood, intense sadness, a lack of interest in pleasurable activities, and feelings of hopelessness.
It can manifest through symptoms such as fatigue, sleep and appetite changes, and difficulty concentrating.
Clinical Depression goes beyond the normal fluctuations in mood that people commonly experience and significantly impacts daily functioning, relationships, and overall quality of life and ranges from mild to severe.
Whether you have "Clinical Depression" or are feeling depressed for any reason, therapy can help.
Are You Experiencing:
- Hopelessness
- Depressed Mood
- Loss of Interest in Pleasurable Activities
Depression, also known as major depressive disorder or clinical depression, is a mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities, difficulties in daily functioning, a consistent sad or empty mood, appetite and sleep changes, fatigue, feelings of worthlessness, difficulty concentrating, and thoughts of death or suicide. These symptoms can have a profound impact on your quality of life, relationships, and physical health.
The causes are multifaceted, encompassing genetic predispositions, hormonal imbalances, environmental stressors such as the loss of a loved one or trauma, and other medical conditions.
Counseling is an effective form of treatment for depression for several reasons. It provides you with a safe and confidential environment in which you can discuss your feelings and thoughts without judgment.
You will learn about thought challenging and restructuring; giving you power you might not have known you had.
We use a range of therapies to treat depression, including components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or "CBT" is a common type of therapy that helps in making both positive thought and behavioral changes.
Counseling also teaches effective problem-solving skills, how to challenge negative thought patterns, mindfulness techniques and addresses the root causes of depression such as trauma or grief.
When warranted, a referral for medication evaluation will be given. We often collaborate with medication providers to provide our clients with the best possible treatment.
