Compassionate, Supportive Therapists in Oakdale, NY, Serving Islip Town and Long Island
Depression affects all aspects of life. It influences relationships, work, motivation, and even physical health. Many people struggling with depression feel isolated, exhausted, or overwhelmed, and – when left untreated – can make life feel much harder to live.
But you do not have to go through this alone. Depression is treatable, and responds well to therapy and other mental health techniques when you connect to the right therapist.

Therapists and Counselors for Depression at South Shore Counseling
Depression presents differently for everyone. Some experience deep sadness or hopelessness, while others feel numb, irritable, or disconnected. Some struggle with low energy and fatigue, while others feel restless or anxious. No matter how depression affects you, we want to be there to help you move forward.
Depression presents in different ways, with conditions and diagnoses that include:
- Major Depressive Disorder
- Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)
- Bipolar Disorder (Depressive Episodes)
- Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
- Postpartum Depression
Still others may not fit into a specific category. That is okay. Our therapists focus on your unique experience rather than a label, working collaboratively with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
