Depression is a negative spiral of isolation, loss of energy, and loss of pleasure in life. I will help you snap that cycle. Together we will re-introduce positive activities, thoughts, and relationships into your daily routine. We will discover and eliminate the gargoyles of despair dragging you down. We will help you grieve your losses, commemorate what you love, and move forward with your life. Pretty soon that negative cycle will be replaced by a positive spiral of accomplishment, fun, and positive connections.

I work with a depressed nervous system by working with the body. Often we struggle to sleep, eat, or accomplish relatively simple tasks. Our bodies are stuck with the brake on. When our body thinks it is futile, out mind follows quickly thereafter and we begin to tell ourselves how pointless things are and how worthless we are. I work with the whole body to re-regulate the body to enable you to get back to a whole integrated self.

Feeling Hopeless? Of course you are, that's how depression works. It doesn't have to stay this way and its won't be like this forever if you get the help you need. I have seen countless cases of depression and I understand how it zaps the very life force out of you. Although you may feel powerless you don't have to be. There are specific treatments that help you gain your energy back and gain momentum to spiral upward. Depression isn't who you are and treatment allows you to become yourself again.

We will examine you thoughts and beliefs as related to your depression to see if they are contributing to your lack of motivation and poor self esteem. As your energy and motivation improve, self esteem may also improve. Finding the energy to engage life can decrease depression symptoms.

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.

Depression is part of our human journey of life - everyone experiences it in different ways and forms. Some depression is chemical/generational while some is situational/transient and can become chronic. Taking a look at what is underneath this reality helps to clarify the means to healing. Depression is not a four letter word or an emotion that cannot be discussed. Taking a look at the connection between thoughts, feelings and actions is powerful and can be an amazing tool for healing and change.
