Depression is a painful, sometimes debilitating or even life-threatening, mood disorder. It can be very severe causing an inability to function or it can be less intense but chronic making you feel down most of the time. When you are depressed you feel as though there is no hope, but there is hope. Psychotherapy usually helps people overcome their depression. In our psychotherapy, I work with you to help you restore your hope, lift your mood, and enjoy life’ pleasures.
