Depression can pull us away from the meaningful aspects of our lives and make everything feel extremely challenging. My approach is compassionate and helps individuals move back toward the lives that they once enjoyed or even helps them discover which aspects of life might be holding them back. My goal is that my clients feel heard and supported as they identify new ways to engage and utilize skills learned in session; over time the change is remarkable and the level of empowerment that I seek to give my client is evident in the progress they make.

veryone has times when they are sad or overwhelmed. Many people choose tocome to therapy even when they are not Clinically Depressed to prevent the downward spiral of negative thoughts and emotions. Therapy provides a way of looking at stressors and losses from a new perspective. It offers a place to organize your life and thoughts, as well as a venue for expressing your emotions. This often prevents the loss of relationships and productivity that can come with being clinically depressed. It can also prevent making choices, while feeling depressed, that are later regretted.
