Depression robs you of your happiness.
We'll help you get it back.
Depression can manifest in a lot of ways. You might feel sad, lonely, or empty.
You might be constantly tired, out of energy, and not in the mood to do anything.
Your sleep is out of whack (Too much? Too little?) and your eating is no better.
Perhaps the worst part is the anhedonia – the inability to take pleasure in the things you used to enjoy.
Depression has taken that from you. But you can get it back with expert treatment for depression.
You can feel better.
Clinical depression is excellent at keeping itself going – because the things you can do to push it away are the very things you just can’t bring yourself to do, whether that’s seeing friends, exercising, eating right, or seeking professional help.
It’s a fight. It’s not easy. But you can do it.
You don’t have to live with a grey cloud over your head all the time.
You don’t have to struggle to get out of bed, suffer through the school-day/work-day, or wonder what the point of it all is.
Therapy for depression has been proven to be effective, even more so than medication (which certainly also makes a difference for some people).
But therapy does what medication can’t – it gives you the skills to change the way you live with your depression, and overcome it, for the long term.
When is it time to see a therapist for depression?
You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable to get help for depression. If you’ve been feeling down, disconnected, unmotivated, or unlike yourself for a while, therapy may be worth considering.
Depression can affect many areas of your life: your relationships, your work, your sleep, your energy, and even your ability to enjoy things that used to matter to you. You may find yourself withdrawing from other people, struggling to get things done, or simply going through the motions of everyday life.
You also don’t need to be sure that what you’re experiencing “counts” as depression. If the way you’ve been feeling is making life harder or keeping you from living the way you want to, talking with a therapist can help you understand what’s going on and begin figuring out how to move forward.
The sooner you reach out, the sooner you can start working toward feeling more like yourself again.
What if I don’t feel motivated enough to start therapy?
One of the frustrating things about depression is that it can make getting help feel like one more overwhelming task. But you don't need to have the energy, motivation, or hopefulness to know exactly how you're going to get better before starting therapy.
Starting can simply mean scheduling an appointment and showing up (whether in person or just in front of your computer). Your therapist can help you figure out the next steps from there.
What happens in depression therapy?
Depression therapy isn’t just sitting in a room talking about how bad you feel. Your therapist will work with you to understand what is keeping the depression going and identify practical ways to start making a change for the better.
That can look different for different people. It might mean working on negative thought patterns, gradually becoming more active again, improving relationships, dealing with unresolved experiences, changing habits that contribute to your mood, or developing healthier ways of handling stress.
Therapy for depression is tailored to you and your needs. Depression may look similar from the outside, but the factors keeping one person stuck can be very different from those affecting someone else.

What Our Clients Say
Alissa
"I can’t thank you enough for all the support you’ve given me. I truly couldn’t have made it through these past few months without your help. You have supported me in taking care of myself during a time when I didn’t think that was possible, and you have given me the confidence to believe that, no matter what happens, I will not only be okay, I will thrive. My days are still roller coasters of emotion, but you have given me tools to survive the ride."
