Depression and Anxiety
Depression and anxiety can cause you to feel isolated and overwhelmed.
Therapy is a supported, skilled space to encounter and shift these thoughts and feelings.
My clients come to therapy tired and looking for support.
They have found themselves struggling to connect with friends and family, burned out at work, and disconnected from their body. While my clients get through by being stubbornly persistent, long-term persistence without added resources is exhausting and doesn’t leave us with what we need to change the conditions of pain.
Contact me if you’re ready for the skilled support needed to find the answers and tools for change.
Collaborative Care
Folks who are experiencing depression and anxiety often benefit from a team of support. A team of support could look like a professional home organizer, a trauma-informed massage therapist, a dog walker, or a hairstylist/barber. Depression and anxiety can make it hard to access the functioning to identify this kind of support team. Therapy is a place to assist with getting not just psychological, but also practical needs met.
Whether you’ve been feeling down and stressed for the past few months or for as long as you can remember, supported and skilled care that acknowledges all of you can bring relief.
Many mental health websites use the term “overcome” as related to depression and anxiety, but this word supports the idea that you should be able to muscle through to some promised other side.
Muscling through is likely part of what is not working.
We are all more complex and dimensional than all or nothing. I work collaboratively with clients to build the tools for meaningful change.
