I think any any therapist who is good reserves dx for when they have established a long term pattern of symptoms. That in my opinion is when it’s labeled a mental illness.
However, I do believe that being on an anti-depressant for short term because of a situation can also be appropriate at times as well.

There is major depression single episode with varying degrees of severity or there is major depression recurrent again with varying degrees of severity
