The despairing pain of depression can be unbearable. It drops to a depth not many can truly understand. You can’t tolerate anyone or anything that holds light and positivity. You pull away from friends and loved ones choosing instead to be alone because no one gets it, no matter how many times they see your suffering. You may appear to others to be the brightest star in the room but inside you feel so very empty and alone. Intellectually, you know what you need to do to “shake it off” but you can never get the ideas that may save you to internalize. Day after day you spend in darkness. You attempt relief through various ways of numbing out, yet the pain remains…
Depression affects millions of individuals worldwide, and its impact is profound, permeating every aspect of your life and those around you. But know this, there is help. You don’t have to continue to suffer. The pain can lighten and the roots of its source can be addressed. Understanding depression, its causes, and the available therapy options can be the foothold you need to climb up and claim your spot atop your challenges.
Depression can be triggered by various factors, including traumatic life events, chronic stress, imbalances in brain chemistry, and underlying medical conditions. Additionally, certain risk factors, such as a family history of depression, substance abuse, or a history of trauma, can increase susceptibility. Depression therapy takes a 360 degree approach to understanding who you are. Together, with a very skilled and experienced therapist from The Therapy Team you will clear through the fog of depression and see the horizon ahead.
Determine the Core: “If you can name it – you can tame it.” coined Dr. Dan Seigal of the Mindsight Institute. The Therapy Team therapists are specialists in helping you get below the surface to explore the real issues so you can learn to take back control in your life.
Healthy Adaptive Strategies: The nature of depression strips away your abilities to fight it off. With depression therapy you will learn skills, practices and techniques to regulate emotions, understand where your debilitating thoughts are coming from and better manage the way you treat yourself and others.
Build Your Strength: How do you come back from this? Therapy will provide the platform where you boost your ability to fight back and rise above. Resilience can be learned and like any muscle it can be strengthened to meet whatever life throws at you.
Reconnect With Your Loved Ones: Depression can pull you away from seeking the support you need from those closest to you. Stigma, repetitive negative thoughts and your desire to seek isolation prevent the positive changes you need. The skilled and experienced depression therapists at the The Therapy Team help you recognise what is standing in your way allowing you to move forward to reconnect and build stronger relationships.
