What is Depression?
Depression is a common reason people seek therapy. The experience can look different from one person to another: symptoms may be mostly emotional, physical, cognitive (thought-based), or relational.
On this page you’ll find an overview of Depression, typical signs, and what support options can look like.
With Depression, people often feel stuck, depleted, or disconnected. Therapy can help restore momentum, meaning and connection.
