Are you experiencing depression?

You’ve survived another long day at work holding it together. You smile. You laugh. Your boss compliments your work. You finish your projects and give cheerful goodbyes. Then, you finally get home...

Many believe that depression is “just feeling sad.” While sadness can be a part of depression, it is far more complex. Many people share that it feels more like being numb. As if you can’t feel anything at all. There is no pleasure. No excitement. It’s difficult to look forward to anything, but it’s also hard to be in the present moment.

The most difficult part is not feeling like yourself. Sometimes you can’t even remember who you are. “I used to enjoy playing soccer, but I can’t even think about lacing up my cleats.” “I thought I loved cooking new meals, so why does even heating up a frozen meal feel like too much effort?”

What you may notice if you are experiencing depression…

How therapy for depression can help you!

Depression can be one of the most isolating experiences. That’s why trying to force yourself to feel better on your own doesn’t work. Community, connection, and support are important to feeling safe, seen, and valued.

During our therapy sessions, we will focus on first establishing a safe environment to build our therapeutic relationship. We will identify the specific ways depression is affecting your body, mind, and relationships.

I will help you to not only learn ways to cope with your depression, but I will guide you to discovering the root causes of feeling depressed in order to restore your confidence, control, and peace.

If you would like support in reclaiming meaning and joy in life, book your free therapy consultation to take the first small step towards a brighter, fuller life. I look forward to meeting you!

Many clients find this helpful for the first 3-6 months. Once you feel confident in your progress, sessions are typically reduced to every other week. The timeline looks different for everyone, and we will collaborate together on ensuring your therapy is most effective for you.

We can also discuss different scheduling options during our consultation call.
