Depression Counseling in Eagan, MN.

Are you feeling sad and alone? Do you feel like no one understands your problems? Are you a mom struggling with Post Partum? Do you have the baby blues? Life can be hard sometimes and I want to help you with those hard things. My approach is to show empathy and seek to understand you while also finding tools to help you cope with the symptoms you are experiencing.

If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.

Oftentimes, anxiety can turn into depression, or the two can 'flip' back and forth, resulting in a sort of 'on-again, off-again' experience. Or, depression can slowly grow over time. Or maybe it feels like it's always been there. Whatever the specifics of how depression feels to us, there are some commonalities. We tend to disconnect from others and our supports (or feel like we want to), and we often tend to avoid precisely the things and the people that might be helpful to us. Learn how to be gentle with yourself, slowly and with self-compassion, find your way back, or find your way to a new place.

Depression can cast a shadow over so many aspects of life. Making it sometimes feel hopeless or that an end is no where in sight. Helping my clients with understanding the causes for depression and utilizing the strengths they already have, as well as teaching new non-medicinal skills, helps to reduce overall symptoms and regain a sense of passion for life again!
