Anxiety and Depression
The worrying never stops.
You tend to stay on edge 24/7, worrying about what might happen, while second-guessing everything you do or are about to do.
Thoughts keep spinning in circles, hijacking your present. Physically, the stress you feel creates a tightness in your chest, as if an elephant were sitting on it. Your heart keeps racing, making you worry that it might burst.
Each night, you lie awake, replaying conversations and feeling fearful about what will happen next.
In your mind, you think, “If I stop stressing, everything will fall apart.” The feelings you express sound like a clear case of anxiety.
Therapy can help you break free from anxiety.
When I work with clients suffering from anxiety, I strive to help them manage overwhelming thoughts and build resilience to the stress from constant anxiety.
The goal is to help you regain control and find relief, break free from cycles of anxiety, and overcome doubt and gain confidence.
Our work is collaborative as we explore strategies to help you navigate through uncertainty.
We’ll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, and you’ll learn concrete skills to quiet your mind in the moment.
Everything seems in slow motion.
Everyone feels sadness at some point. However, the failure of sadness to disappear is a sign of depression.
Depression makes you feel like you are in a dark fog. Things you used to love now feel like a chore, and waking up feels like the most challenging part of your day. There’s a lack of desire to do anything or go anywhere.
There is a persistent “numbness” or lack of color in your life, making you feel like a burden to the people you care about.
When everything feels heavy, you don’t have to carry it alone. Depression is so much more than just feeling sad.
Find your way back to your true self.
The first step in therapy for depression is to ensure that you feel heard and supported.
Then, we will implement Gentle Movement to help identify small, manageable shifts in your daily life.
After that, we will move toward core healing by addressing the underlying beliefs or circumstances fueling the depression.
Don’t let anxiety and depression rule your life.
Therapy can make a big difference. Together, we can identify the underlying causes that trigger your anxiety or depression.
Over time and with support from me, you can learn techniques to overcome those feelings that either keep you on edge because of worrying or prevent you from moving forward due to profound sadness.
Take control and find ways to silence the anxiety and depression you feel.
