Supporting someone through depression is challenging. These evidence-based approaches can help.
Our family support program is open to all family members 18+, past and present clients.
Call for Family SupportIt’s common for people struggling with depression to resist treatment. These approaches can help.
A structured, compassionate conversation led by a mental health professional can help your loved one understand how depression is affecting their life. Professional guidance ensures the conversation stays supportive rather than confrontational.
Rather than pushing, express concern with empathy. Ask open-ended questions: “What would feeling better look like for you?” Let them arrive at their own motivation for seeking help. Focus on their pain, not your frustration.
Boundaries protect your wellbeing while showing love. Be clear about what you can and cannot do: “I will support you in getting help, but I cannot be your only source of support.” Healthy boundaries prevent caregiver burnout and model self-care.
People move through precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. Your loved one may not be ready for action yet — but that doesn’t mean they won’t be. Meeting them where they are is more effective than pushing them where you want them to be.
If there’s immediate danger — suicidal thoughts, self-harm behavior, or talk of not wanting to be alive — call 911 or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline immediately. Depression can become a life-threatening emergency and should be taken seriously.
Our admissions team can guide you even if your loved one isn’t ready.
