Specialized Counseling for Depression & Emotional Pain in Greensboro, NC
​When Everything Feels Heavy and Colorless
Depression can sneak in quietly, making everything feel heavy and colorless. You might feel an emotional pain that is hard to explain, disconnected from people you love, perpetually exhausted, or like you’ve lost the spark that once made life meaningful. When it feels like all you have the energy for is getting out of bed, it’s easy to believe that things won't ever change.
​
You are not lazy, and you are not failing. Depression is a real condition that drains your energy and warps your view of the future. You deserve a space where you can process these intense feelings without judgment and begin the work of reclaiming your life.
Rebuilding Connection and Purpose, One Step at a Time
My approach is rooted in compassion, but focuses on actionable strategies designed to help you interrupt the cycle of depression. I help you address the complex emotions and thoughts that keep you stuck, helping you cultivate resilience and rediscover hope.
In our work together, we will focus on:
-
Examining Negative Thoughts (CBT): Identifying the specific, critical thoughts and limiting beliefs that contribute to hopelessness. We work to challenge and reframe these patterns, creating a more realistic and positive internal dialogue.
-
Behavioral Activation: Focusing on small, realistic steps to reconnect you with activities and people that bring purpose and joy. Even when you don't feel like it, taking intentional action can directly improve mood and motivation.
-
Emotional Processing: Creating a safe space to process underlying pain, grief, or trauma that may be contributing to your current emotional state.
-
Cultivating Self-Worth: Shifting away from constant self-criticism and developing a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself.
