Depression

woman crouchingIf you’re feeling stuck in the quicksand of depression, it can feel like a chore to just put one foot in front of the other. And more to the point, you lose track of why you would even want to bother… your motivation and enthusiasm grind to a halt, you’re irritated with everything.

Therapy can be a rope to grasp onto, so that together we can start pulling you up out of the quicksand. I provide deep understanding and empathy — I get what depression is like. I also use evidence-based tools that can help change thoughts and moods, and help lift depression one small step at a time. And I help you find the little bits of solid footing, of happiness, or at least not-awfulness that are already there but are nearly impossible to see on your own when you’re depressed. I can also (in consultation with your doctor) help you sift through the pros and cons of medication and make an informed decision about what’s right for you.

 Call (415) 409-9023 for a free 15-minute phone consultation … start getting un-stuck today.
