Faith-Based Depression Counseling
at South Bay Bible Church

Loving help for hurting people.

Stubborn darkness. Crippling despair. Overwhelming hopelessness. These descriptions fall short of fully describing the desperate state of many people suffering from depression.

Instead of offering simple platitudes or unrealistic “cure-all” formulas, we seek to address the complex nature of depression with compassion and insight. The video below, with Dr. Ed Welch, offers rich treasures and provide fresh hope to those struggling with depression.

“Joy is not the opposite of depression. It is deeper than depression. Therefore, you can experience both. Depression is the relentless rain. Joy is the rock. Whether depression is present or not, you can stand on joy,” said Dr. Welch.
