Depression Counseling & Treatment
Depression is often mistakenly viewed as a state of mind in which a person can simply make a choice to “be happy”.
While we can choose things to help with our symptoms, depression is not a health condition that someone can simply change by “thinking happy thoughts”. You can’t just “push through it” or “shake it off”.
Often due to a combination of chemical brain changes, painful situations or dysfunctional family dynamics, depression can make us feel trapped.
Regardless of the cause, the team at Phoenix Psychology and Counseling can help. Our psychologists and counselors treat depression with a highly individualized approach and we are dedicated to developing a treatment plan with you and for you.
We don’t believe in a one size fits all approach. Your talk therapy will focus on the specific type of depression you experience. Your provider will discuss different options to help and find the right fit for you.
We can help you deepen insight into your distress, identify your depression triggers and develop realistic and effective coping skills for your needs.
We work alongside you to explore your circumstances and how to integrate and apply what we discover in the therapy session to your life outside our office.
