Depression

Everyone experiences sadness at times, but depression is something more- it is extreme sadness or despair that lasts more than days. It interferes with daily life activities and can even cause physical pain. Fortunately, depression is highly treatable.

Psychotherapy can help individuals with depression by identifying distorted thought processes or unhelpful behaviors that contribute to feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. Therapy provides a safe environment allowing individuals to pinpoint life events that contribute to their depression, and help find ways to change, accept or adapt to those situations. The goal of treatment is to develop skills to cope with symptoms, problems, and identify or prevent future episodes of depression.
