Anxiety and Depression

Persistent anxiety can interfere with your life.

Having occasional anxiety is part of life. It is generally caused from some type of stress. For a teenager, it may be academic challenges, relationships problems, or worries about the next step after high school.

Some anxiety is normal; however, it can be problematic when once it becomes persistent and overwhelming.

When anxiety begins to impact your life in negative ways, it is time to seek professional help.

Therapy provides an avenue for overcoming anxiety.

Through therapy, you learn ways to reduce anxiety and gain control over unhealthy thoughts.

Meditation and mindfulness skills help you during those times when you are feeling anxious.

Sometimes anxiety can be caused by traumatic events that cause emotional wounds. Therapy helps you explore those events and heal from the stress that causes you to be anxious.

It is about setting smart goals for living in your truth and actualizing the life you want. It is about envisioning the person you have always wanted to be.

Depression impacts your entire life.

You may have lost interest in activities in life that were once exciting.

Guilt and a sense of worthlessness may cause you to be tired and unable to perform as your usual self in certain settings.

You are plagued by questions that seek answers. “Why does this hurt so much?” keeps popping into your head. You might hear the monster in your head say, “Why are you still here?”

Those thoughts and feelings are draining you mentally and physically.

Overcoming depression is best done with professional help.

Answers for your depression can be found.

While positive self-talk is a key component, it’s not the only solution.

We’ll delve into the “tri-unity” (Mind, Body, and Spirit), including issues related to self-esteem, self-worth, and environmental factors contributing to your depression.

We will analyze behaviors, establish both future and short-term goals, and address trauma and relationship patterns.

Harmful behaviors will be reduced and replaced with healthy ones, and the emotional baggage contributing to your feeling of sadness will be addressed.

It’s about building on current strengths to help you become your true self.

The goal is to get you to the point where you’re “living your best life.”

All the ads and hashtags say things like “Depression hurts,” “Feeling Alone,” and “Holding On,” but they rarely explain the solution to how living with this disease affects you and how to live an abundant life.

As a depression therapist, in person or online, I can help you reduce your feelings of depression. Creating a partnership and serving as a guide, we will walk side-by-side and work together to get you moving again in your life.

You are no longer alone, even though you probably do not feel like it. You need to get back into balance, and I can help you with that.

We will work to identify the type of life you desire, as well as the source of your pain. Then, we will develop a plan that starts with a mindset shift and implement small goals and big steps for you to get there.

Teenagers and young adults are my specialty.

I work with teenagers and young adults to overcome their anxiety and depression, and I’ve seen some amazing results.

You will learn how to take care of yourself in a variety of ways, so you can reduce your overall levels of anxiety.

Various tools, such as meditation, mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, changing belief systems, reframing unhealthy thinking patterns, and relaxation techniques provide methods designed to help reduce anxious feelings.

My clients go on to get the jobs of their dreams, excel in school, attend college, develop healthy relationships, overcome their depression, and lead an abundant life.

The right therapist makes a difference.

It can make you feel helpless having to watch a loved one deal with anxiety or depression.

Understand that choosing the right therapist is so important, even if you don’t work with me directly, I will help you find the therapist that is a good fit.

It’s about healing, love, and growth. You don’t have to go at it alone.
