Depression can have several causes. It often has a biochemical base but usually also comes from life events that we find difficult to cope with. This, in turn, can result in painful beliefs about yourself such as "I am no good," I'm not lovable," or "I don't matter." One of the biggest problems with being depressed is that you seldom feel like doing the things that can help you feel better! f you are depressed I can help you learn to let go of negative beliefs and gradually build positive behaviors that can help you find more zest and joy in your life.

When working with depression, I use a combination of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), talk therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when working with adults and teens and play therapy when working with children. If there is a clinical depression diagnosis, Neurofeedback or consulting a doctor about medication options may also be recommended as a part of the treatment process.

Depression can look and take form in many different ways. In therapy, I take an approach in a manner that allows the client and the therapist to work as a team. I operate from a strengths based approach and seek to apply interventions in a way that allows you, the client, to achieve your optimum level of functioning and success. Whether you are facing a major life transition or would like to see things function better in your daily life, it would be my privilege to take this journey forward with you.

Depression can like a heavy weight that cannot be lifted, and in our culture, we are always supposed to be "up", not "down", which can cause people to feel ashamed and embarrassed about how they feel. In order to help someone suffering from depression, I work with clients to help them understand and embrace their pain, so that they can live a more wholesome life.

Depression is a complex problem that affects many different aspects of the sufferer’s life. It can affect the body, and generate physical symptoms like insomnia, fatigue, appetite disturbances, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Psychotherapy and antidepressant medications are the two most commonly used treatments for managing depression. Many people use a combination of the two. Psychotherapy is a non-drug alternative that is generally as effective as medication, and in some ways even superior because it treats the root causes of depression. In my practice I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to replace the dysfunctional thoughts that are causing depressive symptoms with functional thoughts.

Everyone feels sad at times. However, feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and worthlessness that last for weeks or months mean that you may be suffering from clinical depression, especially if these feelings keep you from functioning at your optimal level. Attending counseling with a trained therapist is a key component to recovering from this devastating disorder. You do not have to continue feeling depressed, exhausted, and worthless. Rekindle your interest in life. Contact Britt today at (970) 227-2770 to find out how counseling can help you recover from depression.
