Mary Louise Von Franz once said that “depression is a blessing.” Believe it or not if we confront our depression with curiosity, what we learn will be freeing.
Depression can affect so many aspects of our lives and leave us feeling like the weight of the world is on our shoulders. I utilize CBT to help clients better understand their thoughts and feelings to break patterns.
If you're feeling exhausted, discouraged, down, and sluggish, adding something else to the list of things to do is likely the last thing that you'd want. Even if it is "supposed to be helpful", finding a the right therapist and starting the process of therapy can be overwhelming. I work to reduce that barrier as much as possible by using EMDR and Internal Family Systems to help you feel like yourself and to build the skills and strengths to buffer you against depression in the future. In working together you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and an abundance of metaphors. Reach out for a free consultation and lets see how we can move forward together.
All of our therapists work with depression, and are constantly sharing ideas and strategies with each other to help our clients get to feeling better faster.
When you are feeling depressed either all the time or for prolonged periods, life can be very difficult to manage. Depression can surface through feelings of sadness, isolation, decreased interest in your life or others, feeling blue or sometimes depression can be seen as anger or acting out in certain areas of your life. These times are very hard to try and get through on your own.
When you are depressed, therapy can be very beneficial to help you understand the source of your depression and be able to develop new ways of understanding and coping with these feelings instead of feeling so stuck and immoblized.
