What is depression?
Depression is more than just feeling sad; it's a persistent sense of emptiness and hopelessness that permeates your everyday life. It can make even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming, and you may find yourself detached from activities you once enjoyed. Getting out of bed can become a daunting challenge as depression affects not only your mood but also your energy levels, concentration, and overall outlook on life. Seeking support from a mental health professional can provide strategies to navigate these challenges and work towards regaining a sense of fulfillment and well-being.
How I HELP
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT is all about fostering acceptance of your thoughts and feelings, even the difficult ones, rather than trying to suppress or avoid them. Together, we explore the core values and priorities that give your life meaning, helping you reconnect with what truly matters. Through the process of mindfulness and acceptance, we work on developing a more open and compassionate relationship with your emotions. Rather than attempting to eliminate all negative thoughts, ACT empowers you to observe them without judgment, creating space for positive, value-driven actions. We set realistic, achievable goals that align with your values, encouraging you to take steps towards a more fulfilling life. ACT is not just about managing symptoms; it's about building resilience, fostering a mindset shift, and empowering you to live a life in alignment with your authentic self, even in the face of depression.
