Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists at Thriveworks in Indianapolis, IN can help people better understand and manage their symptoms. If you are struggling with regular anxious and/or depressive thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety or depressive disorder, you should seek professional help. The therapists at Thriveworks can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your anxiety and/or depression.
Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists in Indianapolis involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Your therapist will then work with you to determine where your anxiety and/or depression might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
Anxiety & depression counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Anxiety & depression counseling from Thriveworks Indianapolis therapists can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, dependent on the severity of one’s anxiety or depression as well as their needs and preferences.
Depression is far more than the blues. Anxiety is more than a case of the jitters. These are two of the most commonly diagnosed mental illnesses in the United States, and yet, myths and misunderstandings about them still abound.
The severity and longevity of their symptoms often make it difficult, if not impossible, for people to function on a daily basis. And yet, treatment options are available for them. More and more people are working with a therapist or counselor to find the help they need—to find relief.
When anxiety and depression make daily life more difficult, it may be time to reach out for help. The professionals at Thriveworks Counseling in Indianapolis have helped many people who are suffering with anxiety and/or depression. You are not alone. Reach out today for support.
As many as one in four adults will be diagnosed with anxiety in their lifetimes in the United States, and as many as one in six will be diagnosed with depression. While they are distinct and separate illnesses, they often accompany one another.
The DSM-5 defines Generalized Anxiety Disorder DSM-5 300.02 (F41.1) as follows:
Common symptoms include:
When therapists diagnose Major Depressive Disorder, they must work closely with each client. Many of the symptoms for depression are gauged in relationship to what people normally feel, and clinicians rely upon their clients to describe their experiences and inform the processes.
When diagnosing depression, trust between the patient and the therapist is of utmost importance as these symptoms must be explored with great care and sensitivity. Common symptoms of depression include:
The staff at Thriveworks Counseling in Indianapolis offers holistic care and multi-faceted treatment to our anxiety and depression clients. Often, the best care involves multiple approaches. One treatment may be medication— serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI) or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). Medication may allow clients to experience relief from their symptoms so they can heal.
Another approach to treatment may be a talk-based therapy such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). Such therapies may equip clients with healthy coping mechanisms and unearth the root cause of the illness so that deep healing can be applied.
