Sometimes we think of depression as being "stuck"or being "at the bottom of a pit." I believe that strategies for avoiding or withdrawing from the dull pain of depression often contain the very hooks that keep the blues rigidly in place. I work with you to explore the situational, contextual, and emotional aspects of your depression and collaborate with you to get unstuck, raise the bottom of the pit to a better place for you, and ban the blues for good.

Depression can leave you feeling like even the simplest tasks are impossible. Overtime you can start feeling guilt or shame about how hard life feels for you and isolate yourself. You're not alone in how you feel and you don't have to go through this by yourself! Through CBT, behavioral activation, and a huge does of empathy, you can start feeling like yourself again. Therapy is a safe space to express and feel your emotions and find accountability for moving towards your goals.
