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.

Feeling the lowest you ever have can seem impossible to build from. I take a brain-based approach to depression to help you learn to rewire your brain away from the negative and to learn to build more on the positive side of things. We dig deep to try to find the different areas of your life that you do have control over. I offer support, compassion, and love through this process because when you are feeling depressed, finding any positive can be difficult. I will walk with you every step of the way.

If you are experiencing situational or chronic depression, you need help. In a safe environment, we will explore the experiences and thought processes that lead to depression. Then, by reframing, I will help you keep what is true and discard the incorrect beliefs that caused your depression in the first place. I will encourage self-care as a way to manage and improve your mood including walking, journal writing and developing a strong social network. I will also explain the role of the brain in depression and discuss how medication can help.
