Frequently Asked Questions About Depression Counseling
How do I know if I have depression?
Key signs of depression include not finding joy in things you used to enjoy, experiencing low energy, changes in sleep patterns, and feeling like nothing matters.
Will I need medication for depression?
Medication might be helpful if therapy alone isn’t providing the desired improvement. While we don’t prescribe medication, our therapists can work with your primary care physician to coordinate care.
What causes depression?
Depression can have various causes, including chemical imbalances, stress, life changes, trauma, chronic pain or illness, and cognitive patterns. For many patients, it’s often a combination of factors rather than a single cause.
How often will I need to attend therapy for depression?
Most clients attend weekly sessions for therapy for depression in Columbus, especially for the first couple of months. You and your therapist can adjust the frequency of sessions based on your progress and individual needs and goals.
