Depression Counseling
What is Depression counseling?
Depression counseling, also known as therapy or psychotherapy, is a form of professional support aimed at helping individuals experiencing depression. It involves working with a trained therapist who provides a safe and non-judgmental space to explore and address the underlying causes of depression, manage symptoms, and develop coping strategies. The counselor helps individuals gain insights into their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and assists in developing healthier perspectives, building resilience, and improving overall well-being.
Symptoms

- Losing interest or pleasure in previously enjoyed activities, hobbies, or social interactions.
- Significant changes in appetite or weight, either increased or decreased.
- Experiencing changes in sleep patterns, such as insomnia (difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep) or hypersomnia (excessive sleepiness or prolonged sleep).
Having trouble concentrating, focusing, or making decisions, often resulting in reduced productivity.
Feeling restless, irritable, or agitated, sometimes accompanied by a noticeable increase in physical movements.
