How Therapy Helps with Depression

Therapy can help make depression feel more manageable by giving you a space to slow down, talk openly, and better understand what’s going on beneath the surface. In therapy, teens and adults can learn to recognize unhelpful thought patterns, build coping skills, and reconnect with parts of themselves that may feel lost or shut down. Over time, therapy can support improved mood, motivation, and a greater sense of balance in daily life.
