Depression Counseling in Spring Hill, KS.

Depression can leave you feeling hopeless. It's exhausting some days to even muster the energy to get out of bed and face yet another day. In our work together we can identify the reasons for your depression and find ways in which to cope with it. Through continued work I can help you gain control of your life and feel empowered to manage your depression. I draw on personal experience of loving someone with depression. You will benefit from my knowledge and understanding of depression but mostly from the care and compassion you will experience through our work together. You deserve to feel supported and understood while you work towards healing.

Often times we say we feel depressed when we don't really know what we're feeling. All we know is that we feel "stuck" and "numb", and not sure what to do next. I help individuals unravel the other emotions that may be contributing to their feelings of overwhelm. When we discover what we feel, we discover what we need and can work towards becoming unstuck.

When working with clients who suffer from depression I walk side by side with them during their struggles and let them know that they are not alone in it. I provide compassion and understanding while giving my clients tools they can use to cope and work past their depression. When people are depressed they often times feel like they are completely isolated. I work to help clients expand their support system in their lives outside of therapy to help promote healthy connects with people after my clients time in therapy has been completed.

Depression is difficult to overcome and family and friends do not always know how to help. Seeking professional help to overcome your depression should be a safe and comfortable solution. I provide a confidential and encouraging environment for clients to address the root of their depression and create a happier, more fulfilling life for themselves. I utilize CBT techniques and teach you how to change how you think and approach your life with more optimism and confidence. If you feel stuck and unsure of how to overcome your depression, I can provide solutions.

Depression is the elephant on your back, that makes life almost impossible to manage, and can be triggered biologically or environmental. If you are taking an antidepressant prescribed by your family practitioner or a psychiatrist, participating in individual therapy is essential for recovery from depressive symptoms. Individual therapy can make it possible to have energy throughout the day, smile and laugh, experience joy, and feel hopeful about your day and future. For those who are in the depths of their depression, suicide becomes a real option. However therapy, and collaboration with a psychiatrist, can help someone see there are other options, and life is important to live.
