For depression, research studies have indicated a similar level of effectiveness when comparing psychotherapy with antidepressants. One significant difference, however, is that the effects of psychotherapy last longer than those of medication if/when you stop both. With that said a common approach to treatment is to incorporate both into the plan. For medication, a referral to a qualified psychiatrist is necessary. For psychotherapy, I begin with the 3 foundational pillars of my approach which are improving and regulating our diet, sleep, and exercise. Building upon this foundation is the integration of grounding and mindfulness-based skills, including present-moment awareness and focus.

When one is depressed the range of thoughts and feelings encompass a wide spectrum. Sadness and despair might be pervasive. One can feel as if they have fallen into a deep dark pit where everything is covered in negativity and hopelessness. In this state, one can feel inadequate, discouraged, unable or unwilling to make decisions. In addition, guilt, shame, profound low self-esteem and loss of interest in relationships, sex, career and even life itself are commonly found. A variety of evidence-based tools, specific to the needs of the individual, applied skillfully at the right time, can dramatically lift one out of that deep, dark pit and help avoid relapse.
