The holiday season is a time of joy for many, but it can also amplify feelings of loneliness and isolation. Dr. Krystin Holmes, a licensed marriage and family therapist with The Harris Center, appeared on KPRC2 to discuss how to recognize signs of depression, practical strategies for coping, and resources available to help you or your loved ones. You're not alone—support is always within reach. Call our Crisis & Access Line at 713-970-7000 to speak with a counselor 24/7/365. Watch here: https://lnkd.in/gRC92Xeu
