Manhattan, New York therapist: Anxiety Eliminated, hypnotherapist
Depression

Anxiety Eliminated

Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Health Coach, MBA
I am one of the few (only?) therapists, who understands the connection between depression and low blood sugar. Low blood sugar is an epidemic due to SAD: Standard American Diet. My protocols for fixing diet are mostly effortless. Once low blood sugar is stablized, THEN you we release and heal the root causes of the depression, most often found in childhood.

Depression

Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC

Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
Living with depression can feel isolating and overwhelming, affecting every part of your life. Whether you’re dealing with persistent sadness, fatigue, hopelessness, or a lack of interest in things you once enjoyed, depression can make even the smallest tasks feel impossible. Therapy provides a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions, and to break free from the cycle of negative thinking. I use a variety of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to challenge negative beliefs, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), which focuses on improving relationships that may contribute to your depression. Mindfulness techniques help you stay grounded in the present moment, while Behavioral Activation encourages you to engage in rewarding activities, even when motivation is low. My goal is to help you regain a sense of purpose and joy, rebuild your confidence, and develop healthy coping strategies to manage difficult emotions. Together, we can work to understand the underlying causes of your depression and create a brighter future. You don’t have to face depression alone—therapy can help you rediscover hope and take the first step toward healing.
