It's hard to get motivated and have interest when we are depressed. I will help you process your emotions, while also inspiring you to take small steps toward your goals.
Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Are your life and relationships unfulfilling? Can't let go of past hurts? Using sex or the internet to avoid others or painful emotions? Nothing gets better no matter what you try? Maybe it's time for a change!
All therapists are trained to treat depression. Depression can be a primary problem or can be secondary to other problems. Treatment begins with a thorough review of the individual's life history and current circumstances along with consideration of physical conditions that may be contributing to the state of mind. The focus of treatment grows out of these discussions.
We would use an effective therapeutic approach that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors contributing to depression. Then we will incorporate relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and deep-breathing exercises that can assist in managing physiological symptoms while also identifying triggers and experiences that have led to symptoms of depression to gain insight and understanding into one's thoughts and behaviors.
A classic definition of depression is "anger turned inward," and through a non-judgmental exploration of this anger and the relationships involved in its formation, this anger can be worked with and freed.
