Depression therapy in Katy, TX

Depression was described by one of my clients as an overwhelming sense of doom. “It felt like a wave of sadness has come over me leaving me tired and hopeless. It’s an empty feeling, a lonely place to be.” 

Another client described depression as “pushing a rock up a mountain, using all my strength just to go to work and get through the day, then feeling immobile and powerless when I get home, no energy left for anything else.”

You may feel that no matter what you do, you cannot get rid of this sense of worthlessness. You can't seem to pull yourself together, no matter how hard you try, then beat yourself up about it. 

If you can relate to any of this, you are not alone! 

Depression in the US affects over 18 million adults (1 in ten) in any given year.3 

Being here, looking for help and support is something to be proud of. Taking this step shows incredible strength. We're here to help you heal and grow.

Depression therapy can help anyone, regardless of gender, age or socioeconomic status. Whether you're seeking depression treatment in person or online depression counseling, know that depression can be situational- happening during life transitions, loss of loved ones, relationship endings, or postpartum.

Depression can be biological- caused by chemical imbalances in your brain that you're born with. You're more likely to need depression treatment if you have family members who suffer from depression.

Even though you may know what you need to do to feel better, depression has a way of robbing you of motivation or energy to move forward. That's why professional depression therapy can make a difference - providing you with support and strategies to help you heal.

What is CBT?

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a cornerstone of both in-person and online depression counseling, works under the premise that our thoughts and behaviors affect our mood and emotions. In depression therapy, CBT focuses on identifying distortions in thinking patterns as well as negative core beliefs. 

This proven approach helps you develop practical tools for managing symptoms through online depression counseling.

A depression counselor will work with you on replacing these beliefs with more adaptive ways of thinking. You will also learn problem solving skills to cope with difficult situations, and work on changing maladaptive behavioral patterns. 

Throughout depression therapy you will learn some effective interventions for depression to help you cope with difficult situations when they arise. 

• Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT) is a time limited form of treatment, generally taking 10 to 15 sessions on average depending on the individual client.
• In CBT we set clear goals, you will know where you are heading and how you will get there.
• CBT techniques have been well tested in research studies.
• CBT is structured, clients can see progress during treatment, get feedback, and can adjust approach.
• CBT is all about moving you towards your goals, giving you a sense of progress.
