There may be a particular reason for it or it can come up for no conscious reason other than just waking up. We use a a combination of traditional therapy combined with hypnosis, mindfulness, reiki, yoga and NLP and other holistic approaches to treat depression and free the body mind and spirit from negative patterns. Rediscover yourself and unlock your potential. Free yourself from negative patterns that lead to depression and stress. Lower the volume of negative thoughts and allow your positive self dominate your every decision.

Depression is a suffering that takes the joy out of life and seems endless and hopeless. It drains your self-esteem. It is a sign of a problem but it makes solving problems more difficult.

I can also support you to take the kind of actions that lift your mood. You will learn ways of being more nourished and fulfilled.
