My approach to depression counseling is compassionate, client-centered, and trauma-informed, recognizing that each individual’s experience with depression is unique. I work collaboratively with clients to explore the root causes of their emotional pain, whether it stems from unresolved trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or other stressors, and help them develop practical tools to manage symptoms. I aim to empower clients to regain a sense of control, rediscover meaning in their lives, and rebuild hope for the future.
