Therapy for Depression
​When you're struggling with depression, life becomes so much more difficult. Showering, getting out of bed, and even eating can feel like huge tasks. No matter how much you sleep or rest, you still feel like you have barely any energy. You may have noticed that you have very little motivation, and you don't even have the energy or desire to do activities you used to enjoy. You may have started to isolate from friends and family, and you have negative thoughts that you aren't good enough or no one really likes you. You haven't felt like yourself for a while now, and you feel guilty that you feel depressed. Life has started to feel pointless, and you might even have thoughts that you wish you could escape everything or you don't want to live anymore.

Depression can be so painful and debilitating. If you're struggling with depression, you're not alone. Depression is one of the most common mental health difficulties in the United States. According to 2024 CDC report, 2 in 5 high school students and 5% of adults regularly reported experiencing symptoms of depression in the US. Even more, 1 in 5 adults have been diagnosed with depression at some time in their life. Young adults (ages 18-25) have the highest risk of a major depressive episode, and depression has become even more common since the pandemic. If you're dealing with depression and ready for things to change, therapy can be a powerful tool for relief and recovery.
