Therapy for Depression
As a clinical psychologist, I offer evidence-based therapies to help individuals struggling with depression. I provide a thorough assessment and sometimes refer people to a medical doctor for medication to deal with symptoms that therapy alone cannot help. Through personalized counseling sessions, we explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors contributing to your depression. I provide a safe space for you to express yourself and develop coping strategies. Together, we work on changing negative thought patterns, building resilience, and enhancing self-care practices. By fostering self-awareness and promoting healthy coping mechanisms, I aim to support you in overcoming depression and improving your overall well-being. Reach out today to start your journey towards a brighter, more fulfilling life.
