Depression is persistent feelings of sadness and emptiness, a lack of motivation, crying, changes in eating or sleeping, disinterested in the things you once enjoyed and potentially self-harming behaviors or thoughts of suicide. Many counseling interventions effectively treat depression, including behavioral, cognitive, interpersonal, psychodynamic, and mindfulness interventions. People with depression may also require medication.
Available Treatment Options
Behavioral therapy uses interventions to change behaviors that lead to or exacerbate distressing emotions. Cognitive interventions involve examining thought processes to change unhelpful patterns of cognition. Psychodynamic counseling fosters self-awareness through exploring unconscious thoughts and how one’s past affects current functioning.

We can get into cycles where the arguments sound and feel the same regardless of what they are about. And these cycles are h...

All that we do (knowingly or unknowingly) is dedicated to deciphering these daunting and irrepressible demands of existence. Few are successful in resolving or even clearly conceptualizing these existential issues and their minds inevitably descend into despair,...

Being human means that both joy and pain, love and despair, connection and loneliness, vitality and apathy, all occur in the same inner space. When that space gets overwhelmed with pain, shame, or fear, we can feel as though we’re running on fumes - burned-out, disconnected, feeling stuck or paralyzed. Thoughts and emotions affect the way we move through life; and consciously or not, past...
