Listen to your depression. If you think you are depressed, it is important to learn why you feel depressed and work on changing your thoughts, behaviors, environment, and/or lifestyle. This is not easy to do---actually it is quite hard! However, changing these factors is a much better way to achieve long lasting results, compared to covering the problem with medication. Some people need medication. However, therapy is always important because we all have negative thoughts and problematic behaviors that can cause depression. With therapy, many do not need medication and others often need less medication.

Depression is a loss of hope. It is an over-focus on the past, a fusion with events and circumstances that cannot be changed. As we work through the underlying causes of your depression, we can develop a new understanding of its origin for you and begin to form new neuro-pathways that can create feelings of hope. By intentionally fostering thoughts of things like gratitude and grace, we can begin to reformulate your thought processes and help you find your passion and purpose. I have had clients that, over time, have been able to give up anti-depressant medications completely! You can be one of them!

If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.
