Treatment for Anxiety and Depression

“I Feel like I’m trapped in my head.”


“It’s hard to enjoy things that I used to love.”


“Does it ever get better?”


If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or weighed down by depression, it can feel like there’s no way out. Maybe you’ve lost hope that change is possible — you’re not alone. Anxiety and depression can show up in different ways, whether that’s in your thoughts, emotions, or your body…it’s all connected!

When anxiety or depression takes over, it’s common to lose interest in activities that once brought you joy. The energy just isn’t there, or maybe your mind is consumed with worries that contribute to avoidance. This cycle can make you feel disconnected from your life and the people around you. 

It might feel like your thoughts are constantly racing, making it hard to focus or relax when experiencing anxiety. Depression can leave you stuck in a fog, weighed down by feelings of hopelessness or emptiness. These experiences can even affect how you see yourself—especially when it comes to daily functioning, body image, and eating habits. For some, food becomes a way to cope, while others might lose their appetite entirely. Therapy can help break these cycles by exploring the connections between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help you get back on your feet in an approachable, safe way. 

How Therapy Can Help

In therapy, we’ll work together to understand the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. Using strengths-based, compassionate approaches — like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) — we can help you manage anxiety, challenge unhelpful thinking, and build resilience. Therapy isn’t just about what’s wrong — it’s about finding and using your unique strengths to move forward.

Healing Your Relationship with Yourself

Anxiety and depression can deeply affect your sense of self. This can feel like disorienting shifts in identity, painful memories or experiences coming to the surface, or experiencing difficulties in your relationships. You deserve an ally who can help you connect more authentically with yourself and prioritize moments of self-care.

Moving Forward

You don’t have to face anxiety or depression alone. Therapy is a safe space where we can work through the tough stuff together, building the tools and finding solutions you need to feel more present and engaged in your life again.
