Notes Box
I’m having trouble with my depression. I don’t tell my problems to other people, even my
family because I know they will just think that I’m over acting. I just cry at night where no
one sees me. I actually want to seek help from a Psychiatrist or Counselor, but no one will
be there for me. I also have trouble financially so I can’t afford to seek formal help from a
professional.

I agree of John McLeod content because counseling can help people to pinpoint problems and
understand aspects of the problems that may be improved. They can also identify negative or illogical
thinking patterns that contribute to feelings of hopelessness and helplessness, and to develop a more
positive outlook. Explore learned thoughts and behaviors that create or maintain problems.

Technically speaking, " counselor " means "advisor." It involves two people working together to
solve a problem. It is a term that is used in conjunction with many types of advice giving.
Counseling will help individuals obtain information, and to clarify emotional concerns that may
interfere with or be related to the decisions involved.
