Anxiety and Depression

Persistent anxiety and depression impact life.

A certain amount of anxiety and depression is a normal response to life events. Sometimes, however, anxiety and depression persist and make you feel out of control – disrupting your life and impacting you socially, mentally, and physically.

Depression creates a sense of hopelessness, causing you to cease enjoying life. It can affect your sleep patterns and physical well-being, causing you to lose interest in friends and family.

Anxiety impacts you physically, creating an inability to sleep and concentrate on various tasks.

When such feelings persist, therapy is the best answer to recovery.

There are proven approaches for treating anxiety and depression.

Each of us faces the challenge of learning how to cope with and make meaning of our experiences. This process of meaning-making is a skill.

Working together, we will explore techniques to consciously work to create a sense of meaning and purpose in your life. For example, you will learn how your body responds to stressful situations, how feelings and thoughts are connected, and how to develop more adaptive thought patterns.

You will come away from therapy with practical tools to use when experiencing empty, uncomfortable, or anxious feelings.

Develop the skills you need to get better.

You can learn to deal with stress and anxiety.

Let’s face it; we live in a stressful world. Enhancing your coping ability can help you live a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

For each of us, pain, uncertainty, and confusion impact how we understand ourselves.

Often we feel stuck, anxious, and depressed because of early life decisions we made in coping with the pain in our lives.

The good news is that meaning-making is a conscious choice. Let me show you how to re-choose old patterns.

Learn to change your patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior permanently.

Don’t go it alone.

Sometimes, people feel so low or anxious; they self-harm or think about suicide.

Therapy offers tools to help you recognize the feelings from suffering behind these “urges” to self-harm or do self-destructive things.

You learn strategies to effectively manage these urges to deal with emotionally intense and uncomfortable feelings.

Discover the underlying reasons for your experience and work to change the pattern.

It’s time to get beyond anxiety and depression.

If you are tired of suffering from intense anxious or depressed feelings, together we can transform how you manage these feelings.

In the balance between acceptance and change lies your emotional wellness.
