Erik Edler
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT
Depression is more than sadness or numbness or a feeling of no energy. The primary emotions, like sadness, grief, discouragement, or loneliness can be difficult, but they're something a person can cope with. The difficulty with depression is that it's not a primary emotion, but a dysfunction of emotion. At the heart of depression is the fact that we are keeping something pressed down, which is the true meaning of de-pression. Often, people don't even know what they are keeping pressed down, and that's where therapy can help. As with all my work, I look for the root cause, so that a client can be truly free from the depression that has troubled them.

Depression can grow from so many places, feeling stuck, feeling unworthy or feeling unable to meet the demands of life. You do not need to have a perfect life, free of struggle, to tackle depression. With support, understanding and encouragement, you can break free from the weight of being depressed.
