Depression is a mental illness that affects millions of people yearly. Everyone has experienced times of sadness in their lives, but clinical depression goes beyond these normal ups and downs. Distinguishing between normal feelings of sadness and clinical depression can be challenging. In general, if problems with mood are causing significant distress or impairment in functioning, it’s best to consult with a mental health professional.
Major Depression is a condition in which the person has either (1) persistent and extreme feelings of sadness or (2) loss of interest or pleasure for at least a two-week period. Other signs of depression may include:
Counseling, also called talk therapy or psychotherapy, is a key component in the treatment of depression. Our clinicians are trained in a variety of modalities, including: cognitive-behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, EMDR, brainspotting, trauma-focused therapy, biofeedback and play therapy. Using different treatment styles and approaches, our clinicians can guide you in exploring coping skills, mindfulness training and emotion regulation techniques.
We offer telehealth counseling so you can have sessions in the comfort and safety of your own home. When appropriate, in-person sessions are available with COVID-19 precautions.
Neurofeedback trains the brain to work in a more balanced and effective way. Our QEEG brain maps find the brain wave patterns that are contributing to depression. For example, a depressed brain can produce too much of the brain’s idling brain wave, alpha, leaving the person with low energy and motivation. Once we find the brain wave patterns that are related to depression, the individual does a series of neurofeedback sessions to change the dysregulated patterns, leading to symptom reduction.
