As a psychologist, depression may be the most common complaint or difficulty that my clients experience. Put simply, depression can be a result of genetic/constitutional tendencies, environmental issues such as life stressors, or both. I often employ what is known as the cognitive-behavioral approach in dealing with depression, in other words looking at the relationship between negative, self-defeating thoughts, and the resulting emotion, e.g., "Stinkin' Thinkin'." I also place a large emphasis on important daily mood issues, such as sleep, diet, activity level, and receiving adequate light levels. An attitude of gratefulness is important in reducing feelings of depression.

I utilize cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and interpersonal therapies to treat depression. These methods focus on addressing problematic ways of thinking and behaving which create and/or maintains depression symptoms. Depression seeps into all parts of life and it is more than 'willpower' to 'get happy.' It takes work, commitment, and a willingness to see what else life has to offer. I give clients support and encouragement to see that new possibility.
