Depression is one of the most common human experiences that can rob you of the enjoyment of your life. It's a painful condition makes you want to do the opposite of everything that will make you feel better. It can prevent you from seeing a future for yourself. Therapy is an important tool to help you understand the nature of what's happening and what step to take to begin to turn the tide in a positive direction. It's an opportunity to explore the underlying roots of how you fee and identify ways to create internal and external change. Learn how to break though overwhelm and feeling stuck. We'll focus on finding solutions that help.

Depression can leave you feeling physically and emotionally exhausted. It can be hard to complete simple tasks, go to work or care for ourselves; being overloaded with thoughts has zapped your energy. But, there's hope for a way out through therapy. I utilize Cognitive and dialectical behavior therapies, Acceptance and Commitment therapy, and person centered therapy to help you overcome the internal battle that keeps you from getting better.

Depression is seen by some as a biochemical imbalance that is genetically transferred to the individual and can only be treated through medication. This might be part of the picture, but also a depressive, negative style of thinking can result in changes in the brain that bring about this unhealthy biochemical imbalance - and psychological treatment can change the thinking style that leads to this imbalance, rendering the individual to be free of reliance on medication and overall improved life that lasts on it's own merits.
