Depression Counseling in Peculiar, MO.

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.

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.

Depression can be debilitating to the point of not even wanting (or able) to get out of bed in the morning. Left untreated depression can lead to other serious challenges. Depression can be treated with Positive Psychology, exploring life circumstances that might be impacting well-being, Mindfulness and more. Medication doesn't have to be the first line of defense against depression but can provide relief in some cases. If you're interested in getting to the root cause of depression and/or grief I can start arming you with tools to help you combat what might be holding you back from living the life you hope to live.

Depression is often a life draining evil that can be present in every area of our lives, oftentimes making it very difficult to function normally, or it can be a subtle nagging voice we listen to on a daily basis. However it manifests itself, it can cause significant damage to self-worth, can cause low physical energy, nagging pain and discomfort throughout the body, and lack of motivation and energy to make changes. Often times, it kills hope. Life does not have to be about just making it through the day! Let me help you discover the way out to a life full of satisfaction and hope.

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.

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.
