Depression is the feeling people have when they are “down” and sometimes hopeless about the future. When these feelings continue, they can interfere with daily functioning and over time, can have a negative impact on our mental and physical health. Depression treatment today is evidenced-based and highly effective.
Depression is a common problem and affects more than 300 million people worldwide. According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in the year 2016, an estimated 16.2 million adults in the United States suffered from at least one depressive episode.
Depression is highly treatable
Whether you are experiencing moderate or severe depression it can have a significant negative impact on your job or career performance, relationships, family life, and physical health. What many people don’t understand is that depression is one of the most treatable disorders. If you are experiencing ongoing sadness and hopelessness that seems to be more than the usual ups and downs of life, please seek help as soon as possible so you can feel better and start enjoying life again.
We heal through connecting with and receiving support from others. In therapy, we will work to find and heal unresolved issues that have led to the negative self-perceptions and thought patterns that have been interfering with your happiness and functioning. The healing that results through the therapeutic relationship can help you become motivated and optimistic again. Treatment for depression will allow you to feel better, set and accomplish new goals, and begin to reconnect with others.
