Yes. Many people combine counselling with medication prescribed by a GP or psychiatrist. Therapy complements medication by addressing emotional, behavioural, and relational factors that contribute to depression.
Counselling can help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, process emotional pain, build resilience, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. It also supports you in reconnecting with purpose, motivation, and a sense of self-worth.
In counselling, you’ll work with a therapist to explore the root causes of your depression, understand emotional patterns, and learn practical strategies to manage symptoms. It’s a supportive, non-judgmental space tailored to your pace and needs.
If you’re feeling low, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or struggling to cope with daily tasks, counselling may help. Seeking support is a strong first step toward understanding what you’re going through and finding ways to feel better.
