THERAPY FOR DEPRESSION
Are you struggling with a heaviness that hangs over you like a cloud that won’t let up no matter what you do?
Are you often overwhelmed with feelings of loneliness, helplessness or hopelessness?
Maybe you feel guilty, ashamed or confused by your inability to connect with loved ones or to engage in activities that you once enjoyed. Or perhaps you feel like you’re just going through the motions of life without feeling any real desire to connect to the people or world around you. Is it challenging for you to focus, experience productivity at work or complete routine daily tasks?
Do you often feel like you’re a leaf in the wind getting pulled in every direction,
without any real control over where you go or what you do?
Do you wish you could experience more inspiration, motivation and pleasure in your life and find a meaningful path forward?

living with depression
Can be an isolating, painful and self-defeating experience. It may feel as though life is kicking you while you’re down and, without giving you a chance to recover, it delivers another blow. You may have lost connection to others and feel ambivalent about events, ideas and activities that once excited you. Your sleeping and/or eating patterns may have changed, and every day may feel like a struggle right from its onset. The heaviness that depression creates can make you feel like you’re dragging yourself through life. Every day may feel like you’re trying to climb a mountain that’s covered in ice
and no matter what you do, you just keep slipping.
There are many causes for depression and it varies in terms of severity. Some people are biologically predisposed to developing depression. Symptoms can also manifest following a loss, major life transition or trauma. Depression can present as a low-level heaviness that’s hard to shake or become so severe that it makes every thought, feeling and action a struggle.

The good news, however, is that while depression is one of the most commonly diagnosed mental health disorders, it is also one of the most commonly and successfully managed and treated. While you can’t control what life throws your way, as a skilled therapist, I can help you improve your ability to respond to the present moment, find balance again and get back on your feet.
Depression Treatment Can Help You Find Purpose, Perspective And A New Path Forward
We will work together to identify and address the root cause(s) of your pain. We can immediately explore practical and manageable actions that you can take now to change how you perceive and engage with yourself, others and situations in the present moment. We’ll also explore new possibilities and the choices you can make to break unhealthy habitual patterns of thoughts and behaviors. So many people with depression are extremely hard on themselves and have adopted a highly developed self-critic. In sessions, you can begin to quiet your inner critic, learn that you are more than your thoughts
and adopt more self-compassion and awareness.
