There are many factors that contribute to depression. Some are biological, and others are psychological. Depression can be caused by your brain and body chemistry as well as the thoughts and beliefs you have about yourself and your life. Our therapists for depression can help you explore your unique situation to determine the cause of your depression.
Coping with depression can be challenging, and not all strategies are helpful. People have tried different coping mechanisms that didn’t work or made things worse, such as drugs, isolation, or avoidance.
Our blog post, about how people cope with depression, provides insights into healthy coping mechanisms like seeking professional help, medication, and self-care. Check out the post for effective strategies, and visit our website for depression counseling services to improve your well-being.
Absolutely not! Depression is no more a sign of mental weakness than a broken arm is a sign of physical weakness. Even the strongest people struggle with their thoughts and emotions. At Red Bridge Counselling, we believe that one of the most incredible signs of strength is the willingness to ask for help. It takes great courage to seek depression therapy.
