Holistic Anxiety & Depression Treatment
At times, depression can feel like an overwhelming burden that's hard to lift. Somatically, it can sit heavily on the chest, or drop deep into the belly, or even manifest as chronic pain. Sometimes, it is rooted in other emotional and cognitive experiences, such as shame.
For our Autistic clients, we work to better understand the experiences of Autistic burnout often viewed as depression and anxiety.
​
Anxiety shows up when we experience intense feelings of uncertainty and lack of control over our lives. Anxiety likes to 'future trip', focusing on the 'what-ifs' through worry and perseveration.
We know that healing is not a linear journey. Our therapists collaborate with you to create a roadmap to work toward feeling and healing.
​
Motivation to seek support is challenging, especially when the depression whispers its lies of "it will feel like this forever..." We try to make our process simple and help carry the weight. ​
