Depression Counseling in Omaha

Find Peace and Take Back Control with Therapy at Bear Company Counseling

You Deserve to Feel Like Yourself Again

Depression can make even the simplest things feel exhausting. Getting out of bed, showing up to work, spending time with people—it all starts to feel heavy, like you’re carrying an invisible weight. If you’ve been feeling hopeless, numb, or just not like yourself, we want you to know this: you are not alone, and things can get better.

At Bear Company Counseling, we support teens, adults, and families in Omaha through compassionate, evidence-based depression therapy. Whether you’re dealing with a recent loss, a long-term struggle, or something you don’t quite have words for yet, we’re here to listen and walk with you toward healing.

What Depression Might Look Like

Depression shows up differently for everyone. You may notice:

• Persistent sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness

• Loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed

• Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much

• Feeling worthless or excessively guilty

• Trouble concentrating or making decisions

• Fatigue or lack of motivation

• Changes in appetite or weight

• Thoughts of self-harm or suicide

Sometimes depression can feel loud and overwhelming. Other times, it feels quiet but constant. If it’s affecting how you function, connect, or care for yourself, counseling can help.

Types of Depression We Work With

We support clients facing a wide range of depressive experiences, including:

• Major Depressive Disorder

• Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)

• Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)

• Perinatal or Postpartum Depression

Whether your depression is tied to a specific event or has been part of your life for a long time, your experience is valid and worth caring for.
