Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that shows up at the same time every year, usually in fall and winter when days get shorter and darker. Most people call it “winter depression” or the "winter blues". It’s more than just feeling a little down because it’s cold outside—SAD can make it hard to get out of bed, focus in school, or enjoy things you normally love. Counseling for teens and young adults can help. Learn how here.

Thanksgiving is supposed to be a happy time full of food, family, and fun. But for many teenagers, it can feel stressful and lonely. If you are a teen dealing with teen anxiety or teen depression, the holidays can make those feelings even worse. You are not alone, and there is help available.

This often means living at home longer, delaying careers, or avoiding responsibilities. In Katy, Texas, many families seek counseling for young adults to address this growing issue. At Katy Teen & Family Counseling, our young adult counselors specialize in guiding this transition.
