When life loses its color, you don't feel like doing anything or seeing anyone, and normal daily tasks start to feel impossibly overwhelming, you may be struggling with depression. Therapy can help you readjust your thinking so the burden doesn't feel so heavy and you regain the energy and hope to be willing to take baby steps toward enjoying life again.

Courtesy of PsychCentral: "CBT works by helping you change any unhelpful thought processes that may be contributing to your depression. Through various techniques, CBT aims to do the following:
Identify and challenge negative thoughts: CBT teaches you to spot and challenge automatic negative thoughts linked to depression, like feeling helpless, hopeless, or worthless.
Restructure cognitive patterns: A therapist will work with you to reframe your interpretation of life events, altering any core beliefs that contribute to depressive symptoms.
Develop coping strategies: CBT teaches effective coping skills and problem-solving techniques to handle challenging situations.
Behavioral activation: Your CBT therapist will encourage you to do enjoyable things to fight against feeling withdrawn and inactive, common feelings in depression.
Relapse prevention: CBT not only treats current symptoms but also focuses on preventing future relapses by teaching strategies to maintain healthier thoughts and behavior patterns..."

Psychologist, M.A., Ph.D.
If you are experiencing deep sadness that won't go away or you have lost the ability to feel pleasure or interest in life's activities, you may be suffering from depression. Depression is not the same as normal sadness, it can also impact your concentration, sleep, appetite, feelings of self-worth, energy level, and you may even feel like you don't want to go on living. If you think you might be experiencing this, I can help. I will first work with you (and your physician as appropriate) to determine the basis of your depression. Depression can be caused by mental habits and behaviors you may not even know you have. Over time these invisible habits can lead to depression that may seem to either "come out of the blue" or in response to stressful situations. I will help you identify these ways of thinking, and help you develop new thought habits and behaviors that, with practice, can help you overcome your depression.
