What Is Depression Counseling?

Depression counseling is a form of mental health treatment that helps people understand their condition and develop coping skills. The counselors at Thriveworks Hoffman Estates, IL, are trained to recognize common depressive symptoms and signs of more serious depressive disorders, including:

  • Major depression
  • Minor depression
  • Bipolar depression
  • Postpartum depression
  • Seasonal affective disorder

Untreated depression can interfere with daily life and put your health at risk. Counseling can help manage symptoms like negative thinking patterns and feelings of worthlessness, and it can also prevent future relapses by addressing underlying trauma or relationship issues.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Trauma-focused therapeutic approaches
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Solution-focused brief therapy

I had 6 or 7 sessions with Nancy Fredricks. A lovely lady. However, I had to end my sessions with her. I started becasue I was going through a depression,which was not normal for me. I had never had councelling on my own before. I'd had marriage councelling, but never individual councelling. Nancy did not ask a lot of questions or offer much in the way of practical solutions. Also, Nancy spends a lot of time scratching her head. I'm not sure what her condition is, but it is very distracting to watch during a therapy session. I'm not saying that talking to Nancy didn't help me. But it was not offering enough of a value that I would continue on with it. I wish her a lot of success in the future.

Absolutely unbelievable..I would never on my life have thought that the therapist needs a therapist for her own issues with dealing with people and client feedback. I'm very disappointed with nancy Frederick. She is no where qualified to act as a financial advisor or medical doctor and give unprofessional and non solicited advice.
