Depression often looks less like sadness and more like surviving the day.
When everything feels heavier than it should, therapy can help you understand what’s
keeping you stuck and begin rebuilding momentum.
When Depression Shows Up
Depression can affect motivation, concentration, relationships, sleep, and the ability to enjoy things that once mattered.
