You are not alone! Depression is a genuine illness that comes with real symptoms. It’s important to understand that depression isn’t a sign of weakness, nor is it something you can simply "snap out of" by "pulling yourself together". Statistically, one in three individuals will face depression at some point in their lives. While half of these individuals may only go through one episode, others may experience recurring bouts of depression. The good news is that with appropriate treatment and support, most people can recover from depression. Through Person-Centred Counselling for Depression (PCE-CfD), you can delve into and comprehend the emotions that contribute to your depression. The goal of this counselling approach is to help you access and make sense of those underlying feelings, empowering you to develop new perspectives on yourself and the world around you.
