Therapy for Depression
Depression can feel like a heavy fog that dulls your emotions, drains your energy, and makes even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming. It can leave you feeling disconnected, unmotivated, and unable to enjoy the things you once loved. You may experience deep sadness, numbness, or hopelessness, but it’s important to know that you don’t have to go through it alone. Depression therapy provides a supportive space to explore your feelings, identify underlying causes, and develop strategies to reclaim joy and meaning in your life. Healing is possible, and together, we can work toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.
