Anxiety and Depression
"My brain won't turn off."
"Everyone else seems okay, what's wrong with me?" |
"Am I good enough?"
"I feel like an imposter." |
Sound familiar? Life transitions, work problems, fighting or distance with your partner, dealing with the world of dating apps, and even just living in a culture that devalues aspects of your identity can all contribute to anxiety and depression.
Although anxiety and depression are a part of the human condition, if you find yourself stuck in depression for weeks or months at a time, or you notice that you're feeling anxious more intensely or often, it might be time to untangle what's underneath, maybe learn some better ways to cope. That's where therapy comes in.

Therapy is a place to talk through your worries and sadness, gain some new skills, and perhaps most importantly, help you to understand what your feelings are about and where they come from. There is almost always more than meets the eye.
Therapy can also help you to navigate transitions more easily, set boundaries with work or people in your life, and find antidotes for negative and wounding cultural messages.
