Depression Counseling in East Lansing, MI.

Managing your mood of depression can have a wide variety of roots. Sometimes medication is the first step in managing your depression. With or without the use of medications, you can learn to manage your mood - lift your depression or eliminate your anxiety - but employing a wide variety of techniques. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, EFT, and Developmental Needs Meeting Strategies just to name a few techniques that I use that have helped my clients gain and maintain happier moods.

Depression therapy can help you to uncover your underlying concerns, fears, and needs, and develop coping mechanisms to begin to manage your symptoms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral therapy, and other modalities can help teach you to live with a greater sense of inner peace. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. Please understand that stress can affect us all. It can be improved with therapy. You can get better. Hopeful Minds Psychology Group has licensed and trained counseling specialists ready to work alongside you today. They will work to help you build the resilience and life skills necessary to feel better and be happy again.

When struggling with depressed moods, everything feels heavy and you lack a sense of meaning and purpose. Even the most simple tasks can feel impossible. If you find yourself turning to alcohol, substances, or other addictive behaviours to cope with depressed moods, there is a way out. I help clients with addictions overcome the depressed moods causing them to turn to substances or addictive behaviours to cope. Everyone is different, so I work with you to develop a plan that fits your unique situation. If you are unsure where to start, send me a message. If I'm not the right fit, I can connect you to resources that will allow you to start getting help today, without having to wait.

Depression can be a dark place, particularly when the client feels as though they are completely alone. I like to give my clients the space to be sad or down so we may get to the root of the problem. Through examination of past experiences and possible anxiety for the future, clients will find themselves comforted and willing to try to heal their wounds.
