Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to treat depression can help you learn new ways to manage your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty about them. ACT encourages commit to actions aligned with your values, in hopes of creating a sense of purpose and direction. By emphasizing mindfulness and psychological flexibility, ACT helps individuals to live more fully in the present moment and to navigate depressive symptoms with greater resilience. This approach can reduce the impact of depression on daily life and improve overall mental health.
I use my years of experience and education to look at issues that go along with having depression. I address mood issues, emotion and behavioral dysregulation, isolation, relationship and social skills as well as implementing healthy sleep hygiene

Depression can feel like a dark cloud. I tend to see it as a pile-up of grief that is too much to process at once. Your body may need rest while you're still expected to work. Working this through with a therapist can be key to creating the life you want without feeling held back.
Depression continues to be a greatly misunderstood condition that due to social stigma or lack of awareness can go untreated for years. I help clients understand the cause and ways to combat their feelings of depression, helplessness or even hopelessness. Depression is one of the most treatable mental health conditions. You can break through it and live the life that you deserve.
