What is your go-to approach for depression counseling?

My go-to approach is to start where the client is. They are in the driver's seat of their services. We start with a strengths-based approach.

What tools do you teach in depression counseling?

I teach the following tools in individual therapy: grounding skills, positive psychology, communication skills, mindfulness, and gratitude.

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

I know a client is making meaningful progress when they have more good days than bad days and when they are excited to report increased satisfaction in their life domains.

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

Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy by reviewing and engaging in resources provided to them every week and finding times during the week to practice skills they are learning while in services.

What should someone do to prepare for starting depression counseling?

To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can think of three goals you would like to achieve that would make life better and more meaningful.

Finding a Diagnosis for Anxiety or Depression

Depression and anxiety are separate diseases, but many times, they are addressed together because as many as half of people who are diagnosed with one will be diagnosed with the other. Finding the right diagnosis is often a crucial step in healing, but doing so is easier said than done. Not only do anxiety and depression often co-occur, but each can also manifest in a variety of forms. Anxiety is not a singular diagnosis, and neither is depression.

Here are only a handful of the ways anxiety can look…

  • Panic Disorder – Anxiety can show up as a panic attack where people may experience numbness, chills, sweats, elevated heart rate, difficulty breathing, and more. Often, during a panic attack, people feel as if they are having a heart attack or that they are dying. When panic attacks take place more than once or even on a regular basis, they may be Panic Disorder.
  • Social Anxiety Disorder – Social settings and interactions can cause acute fear and worry if people suffer with Social Anxiety Disorder. They often feel judged and embarrassed when they interact with other people. They may also fear meeting new people.
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder – Trauma that is not processed and resolved can remain long after the particular event has passed. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can mean that people suffer with flashbacks and nightmares about the trauma. They may also continue to experience the fear, worry, and anxiety of the trauma.

Much like anxiety, depression can show itself in a variety of ways. A few of those include…

  • Major Depressive Disorder – This form of depression is what most people think of when they speak about depression. Its symptoms include emotions like hopelessness, sadness, emptiness, and despair. Many people struggle with changes in their appetite and sleep patterns. They may want to sleep all the time (hypersomnia), or they may have difficulty sleeping (insomnia). They may want to eat all the time, or they may have difficulty eating at all. People may also experience suicidal idealization or thoughts of death. When these symptoms are experienced for at least two weeks, they may be Major Depressive Disorder.
  • Bipolar Disorder – Is a form of depression that is commonly called manic depression because of the two poles its swings people between: mania and depression. When people experience the depression pole, the symptoms are similar to those of Major Depressive Disorder. The mania pole is nearly the opposite. Mania is a furious and abnormal energy that can take the form of irritability or happiness. During a manic phase, people often make poor choices and put themselves in harm’s way. They may take financial, emotional, physical, or sexual risks.
