My go-to approach for helping people in depression therapy is to focus on building rapport with the client. It is important that the client feels comfortable when sharing sensitive information. The focus is on the client's main concerns, and they are supported. Based on each client's needs, I will choose which treatment is appropriate. I use evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to form a treatment plan that is appropriate for the client.
I teach the following tools in depression therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression therapy when they are able to successfully navigate challenges on their own with the tools provided in individual therapy. The client starts to recognize and address barriers that keep them in the cycle of their overwhelming symptoms.
Clients can supplement their time in depression therapy with building a routine of activities learned in individual therapy. I encourage clients to build a healthy support system for accountability in mental health maintenance.
To prepare for your first depression therapy session, I encourage writing down your thoughts and concerns before your session so that all concerns can be discussed in the intake session. Do not be nervous; clinicians are here to listen and help.

Depression is more common than you may think. Many people experience depression at some point in their lives. In fact, it’s quite normal to feel depressed.
