Depression Counseling

Depression can affect mood, motivation, relationships, and daily functioning. It may look like persistent sadness, low energy, difficulty finding enjoyment, changes in sleep or appetite, or feeling disconnected from others. These experiences can feel isolating, but support is available.

McCarville Counseling offers compassionate counseling for teens and adults experiencing depression and mood-related concerns. Our therapists provide a supportive space to explore emotions, understand experiences, and work toward greater stability and connection.

How Depression Counseling Can Help

Depression counseling may support clients in:

  • Gaining insight into emotional patterns and experiences

  • Processing difficult feelings in a supportive environment

  • Rebuilding motivation and daily structure

  • Strengthening relationships and support systems

  • Developing coping strategies that align with personal needs and values

Therapy is a collaborative process that respects each client’s pace and unique experience.

Getting Started

If you’re considering depression counseling, scheduling a consultation is a helpful way to begin. Consultations allow time to discuss concerns, ask questions, and determine whether counseling feels like a good fit.
