Depression

Depression can sometimes feel like a big black dog sitting on your chest making life impossible.  Sometimes it can feel like the dog is barking negative comments in your mind.  Sometimes Depression is a lack of self worth and a fear we don't exist. 

These feelings can feel overwhelming and scary.  You are not alone.  All of our thoughts, feelings and behaviors have impacts on us and together we will examine that cycle of thoughts, feelings and behaviors to order to make the appropriate interventions to improve your mood. 

Life has so many uncertainties and so many interruptors that having coping skills and tools to manage our feelings, thoughts and behaviors will help you navigate those uncertainties and interruptors with intention and confidence. 

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 the 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.
