Depression
Natalie Stemati
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression can weigh a person down and makes all aspects of life seem impossible. Therapy is often helpful for managing depression, especially through taking a mind-body approach to help cope with symptoms as well as understand the root causes. I take a holistic approach. We take a look at functional nutrition resources, work on incorporating daily body movement, and increase effective coping skills. We also explore the emotional piece of your depression. This is where I often see client's relate with themselves in a very self-critical way and we explore and practice the antithesis, which is self-compassion.

Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Here at Denver Wellness Counseling we consider depression through the lens of neurobiology and the polyvagal system, meaning that depression is a hypo-arousal state and an attempt at self-regulation and self-preservation. Most people will experience Depression or Depressive symptoms at least once in their life, and normalizing this as a body's shut down response to extreme stress, loss, fear, panic, or grief can help de-stigmatize Depression and open the path for non-shame based healing. In therapy, working on depression can look many ways, but often includes components such as increasing awareness of the window-of-tolerance, exploring the origin and history of depressive symptoms, identifying and understanding contributing factors and life experiences (ex. negative self beliefs, loss, unhealed trauma, attachment wounds), applying healing methods (like EMDR) to these experiences, identifying and strengthening internal resources, learning to re-parent oneself, implementing self-care and tools for stabilization (somatic, grounding, relaxation), and integrating treatment gains into day-to-day experiences, self-identity, and relationships.

Naya Clinics Denver
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselors
Depression is a debilitating illness that takes many forms. Here at Naya Clinic, we have seen it leave the strong feeling helpless and the passionate lose their fire. Depression—like grief—is characterized by sadness or a lack of motivation. However, grief is an overwhelming—albeit normal—emotional response to the tragedies of life, whereas depression persists beyond—or even in the absence of—these tragedies. Depression often takes the joy from once-pleasurable pastimes and can fill its victims’ heads with negative self-talk, or—at its worst—even cause thoughts of ending their lives.

Rachel Fields
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Do you feel lost in a sea of meaninglessness? Do you feel empty and disconnected, just going through the motions of life? Are you scared this feeling will never end? Part of depression is the experience that it is a permanent state that will never change. It can feel hopeless and scary. You do not have to be in this place alone.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
Are you feeling hopeless, isolated and not your usual self?
Do these thoughts often enter your mind?
I am worthless and can’t do anything about it.
I feel guilty for just wanting to eat, sleep and be alone.
I hate who I am these days.
I can’t stop crying, which makes me want to stay away from others.
I feel gut-wrenching pain, but no one understands.
My life and the world around me are dark. I hate it, but I can’t change it.
If you have had any variation of these thoughts and don’t feel like your usual self, chances are you may be suffering from depression.
I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.
I understand the social stigmas that come with label of being depressed, and thus aim to help clients sort out their environmental, biological and circumstantial factors while offering support and care through a very dark time in their lives.
If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today for a free consultation.
