Therapy for Depression
Depression isn't just feeling sad - it's a pervasive experience that can quietly dim the colors of your entire life. You might notice you're sleeping more but feeling less rested, losing interest in activities you once loved, or feeling a persistent heaviness that makes even simple tasks like showering or making breakfast feel monumentally difficult. Maybe you're more irritable than usual, finding yourself snapping at loved ones, or experiencing a constant inner critic that tells you you're not good enough. Physical symptoms like unexplained body aches, changes in appetite, or a constant sense of exhaustion can also signal that depression is present.

What does therapy for depression look like?
Healing from depression is not about quick fixes, but about gentle, compassionate reconnection with yourself. Imagine gradually rediscovering moments of lightness - perhaps a spontaneous laugh during a therapy session, feeling the warmth of sunlight on your skin, or experiencing a sense of calm that wasn't there before. Healing looks like learning to treat yourself with kindness, understanding that your worth isn't determined by productivity, and developing tools to navigate emotional waves. Through therapy, you'll learn to recognize negative thought patterns, build resilience, and create space for hope. It's about small, consistent steps: maybe setting a five-minute morning meditation, reaching out to a friend, or acknowledging your feelings without judgment. Depression doesn't define you; it's a experience you're moving through, and with support, you can rediscover the richness and depth of your inner landscape.
