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.
There are so many factors that can contribute to a person's experience of depression. It's hard to speak generally and know how i would go about helping you without really knowing you a bit first. If you are at the point of seeking therapy you might have some idea about how the depression started and if you don't, we'll start tracing it back and look at how it developed so that we can find ways to get your feet back under you and get your life and your emotional experience to where you want them to be.
We will explore the underlying causes of your depressive symptoms, which may include biological, psychological, and social factors. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is often used to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns and develop more adaptive coping strategies.
