Depression feels like a deep dark hole that you can't possibly see a way of getting out. Perhaps you have been slowly sliding in for years as life stressors and challenges built up, or maybe it has been a rapid decline with something unexpected knocking you off course. My approach to working with depression includes working towards small, manageable steps to help you feel more confident in yourself and your abilities. Therapy will be like dropping down a ladder into the hole - the path is there and I will help you learn how to climb each rung to get back out again. By the end of therapy, you will find that you can laugh more, have more energy, and enjoy life again.
