Finding Therapy For Depression Matters

Depression can affect every part of your life — your mood, energy, motivation, and even how you see yourself. It might feel like a heavy weight that colors your days with sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness. You may find it hard to enjoy activities you once loved or struggle to get through routine tasks.

Depression is more common than you think, and it can happen to anyone. You’re not alone in this, and there is hope for recovery.

Therapy provides a safe space to explore what you’re feeling and why. It helps uncover underlying causes and gives you tools to manage symptoms and improve your quality of life. Together, we’ll work to break the cycle of negative thoughts and behaviors, and build healthier coping strategies.

What Does Therapy For Depression Look Like?

Evidence-Based Approaches I Use

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and change negative thought patterns that fuel depression.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Builds skills in emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance.
Schema Therapy: Addresses deep-rooted beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck in depression.
Mindfulness-Based Techniques: Encourage present-moment awareness to reduce rumination and stress.

Each approach is tailored to your unique needs and experiences to promote healing and resilience.

What to Expect in Therapy

Therapy is a collaborative process. Initially, we’ll focus on building trust and understanding your story. Sessions may include exploring your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, practicing new skills, and setting achievable goals. Progress takes time, but many clients notice improvements within weeks.
