Depression can often feel like you're wearing permanent sunglasses - except that rose coloured tint is replaced with darkness. Sometimes that shade of darkness can change, but it can often feel like it's always there. Working through depression doesn't mean "look at the positive"; it means, "let's explore what's prompting and perpetuating these feelings; let's explore what emotional, mental, and physical needs aren't being met; let's make room for these feelings and let them breathe because they are trying to tell me something important." In working on depression, we'll explore what makes it easier for you to "take the sunglasses off", but also not beat yourself up if they end up coming back on. In doing so, those periods of darkness will be less frequent, and less intense overtime, allowing you to feel more comfortable and confident in yourself to cope with all of life's curveballs.

Depression is a mood disorder that can affect a person's daily life. Mild depression may be described as feelings of sadness, loss, or anger over a short period of time. Major Depressive Disorder or Clinical Depression is a common but serious mood disorder that can cause severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think or even handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working and can last for months or even years. Hypnosis is an excellent method for addressing the underlying issues affecting mild depression and is an effective complement to existing medical protocols when dealing with clinical depression.
