Depression can weigh heavily on every aspect of your existence, dimming the light in your relationships, dampening your academic and professional endeavors, and clouding your everyday experiences with a sense of hopelessness. In therapy, we offer a compassionate and supportive environment where you can confront these feelings head-on. Together, we'll explore the roots of your depression, identifying triggers and developing personalized strategies to manage and overcome its effects. Engaging in therapy is a powerful step towards lifting the fog of depression, regaining your joy, and rediscovering the vibrancy of life. This process is about more than just coping—it's about transformation, allowing you to emerge stronger, more resilient, and equipped to navigate the complexities of life with a renewed sense of purpose and hope.

Feeling down and blue is a normal, healthy, human experience. Having clinical depression is another thing and requires a trained professional to help you understand the difference. Basically, clinical depression is normal depression that goes to an extreme level and gets stuck there. Most people need assistance of one sort or the other to get back to normal functioning once they reach this point.
br>I will help you first determine where you are along the spectrum from feeling somewhere down and actually being stuck in depression. We'll then look at options available to you to help you feel better and begin enjoying life again.
