Depression can affect every part of your life, making even simple tasks feel overwhelming. You may be exhausted, feeling disconnected from the people you care about, or lacking interest in things that once brought you joy. If you're tired of feeling that way, depression therapy with me can help! I provide online counseling for adults in St. Petersburg, throughout Florida, and in all participating PSYPACT states. There isn't a one-size-fits-all explanation for depression, but with my expertise, we can get you some relief at last.
Getting to the Root of Your Depression
Sometimes depression is obvious, while other times it looks like going through the motions, taking care of everyone else, and wondering why you still feel empty inside. For some people, depression is connected to other comorbid conditions. You may have struggled for years and feel frustrated that therapy hasn't helped in the past. My goal is to understand the full picture so we can create a treatment plan that reflects your unique experiences.
Evidence-Based Therapy for Depression
I draw from several evidence-based treatment approaches, including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to depression.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which is used to stop negative thought loops and manage the intense emotions associated with depression.
Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO DBT), an evidence-based treatment for treatment-resistant depression stemming from chronic overcontrol.
I also enjoy helping clients understand what's happening in their brain and nervous system. This makes it easier to practice self-compassion and begin making meaningful changes.
