Our days are filled with challenges, obstacles and triggers, but when you find you aren’t able to cope with those challenges a therapist can help you gain perspective and empower yourself with tools. When it feels like depression is overtaking your life, a therapist can help you find solid ground again. When you could use a hand living up to your highest potential, a therapist can help you find clarity, motivation and relief. When you need to express yourself, your therapist provides a safe and non-judgemental space for you to speak.

Through a biopsychosocialcultural lens I can help clients who are experiencing depression by uncovering the root cause of symptoms, providing access to resources and compassionately discovering ways to soothe the feelings of depression. Together, we explore beliefs, stories and self-talk that negatively impact your state of mind and physical body. Through therapy sessions, we find tools to create a freedom-filled life and a pathway to accomplishing your goals.

How therapy helps with depression:

• Pinpoint where changes need to be made in your life
• Illuminate skills you already have for creating change
• Provides new skills for managing life
• Fresh perspective on your habits and lifestyle
• A safe place to explore the impact your past has on your present

Sometimes all it takes to start emerging from depression is a fresh perspective. Talking with a therapist helps you find a new outlook on life, uncover the reasons behind your feelings and discover balance.

Signs you could benefit from therapy for depression:

• Loss of interest in hobbies and social engagements
• Feelings of excessive and persistent laziness
• Lack of desire, interest and motivation in life
• Feeling desperate, anxious or generally unhappy
• Feeling disconnected to self and others

If you need medication, I can help you take steps to access resources and make sure you are taking the right steps to help yourself achieve a balanced and healthy life.
