My go-to approach for depression counseling is dialectical behavior therapy. I find benefit in the acknowledgment of the client's pain, and in working through and holding space for the depression while working towards healing.
Tools that I teach in depression counseling are processing and coping skills such as journaling.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in depression counseling when the frequency and intensity of their symptoms such as crying or not being able to get out of bed decreases and their mood improves.
Clients can supplement depression counseling by processing and journaling in their personal time between counseling sessions.
To prepare for depression counseling, make a list of symptoms to share with the therapist during your initial session.

If you’ve been suffering from depression, it’s easy to feel like there’s no hope. However, this is far from the truth. Coping with depression may not be easy at first, but it is a highly treatable illness with the guidance of an experienced counselor.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the tools a professional counselor can use to help you overcome depression. Many clients are surprised by how much of an impact their thoughts have on their own mental health. CBT can help you identify negative thinking patterns, adjust those thoughts, and develop coping strategies that more effectively regulate your emotions and behaviors.
Depending on your situation, you may also be prescribed medication. Depressive disorders often call for a customized approach to treatment, so you can expect your therapist to help you find the treatment plan that works best for you.
