Depression lies. You're not lazy,
and you're not beyond help.

Personalized, evidence-based therapy for major depression, persistent low mood, and the life transitions that knock the ground out. Designed around you, not a template.

Depression is more than sadness, and it rarely announces itself

Sometimes it looks like the stereotype: heaviness, tears, staying in bed. Just as often it looks like going through the motions at work, snapping at people you love, feeling nothing where interest used to be, or being exhausted no matter how much you sleep.

Depression also travels with other things. Decades of unmanaged ADHD or chronic anxiety wear a person down, and that wearing-down can become depression. Life transitions, grief, infertility, and chronic stress can do the same. Therapy starts by understanding your version of it, because the treatment should fit the person, not the diagnosis.

If you are in crisis, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, available 24/7). Therapy is not an emergency service.

Signs it may be more than a rough patch

Weeks of low mood or numbnessNot just a bad day, but a baseline that won't lift
Loss of interestThings that used to matter feel gray or pointless
Sleep, energy, and focus changesSleeping too much or too little, running on empty, foggy thinking
Harsh self-talkA running commentary that you're failing, burdening, or not enough

How Andrea approaches depression therapy

There is no single script for depression, so there is no single script for treating it. Andrea draws on 20 years of clinical experience to build an approach around your specific presentation: the thought patterns, the routines that have collapsed, the relationships that feel distant, and whatever is underneath, whether that's grief, burnout, ADHD, or a life that stopped fitting.

The work is practical and paced to your energy. Small, real steps that rebuild momentum, alongside therapy that addresses why the depression took hold. If medication is part of your picture, Andrea coordinates with your prescriber; she does not prescribe or make medication recommendations.

Depression Therapy FAQs

Depression therapy is personalized rather than one-size-fits-all. Sessions typically combine evidence-based approaches with practical work on the patterns that keep depression in place: withdrawal, self-criticism, disrupted routines, and disconnection from the things that used to matter.
Sadness passes and burnout eases with rest. Depression tends to persist for weeks or longer and pulls down energy, sleep, concentration, and interest in things you normally care about. You don't need to be sure which one it is before reaching out. Sorting that out together is part of the work.
Yes, frequently. Untreated ADHD and chronic anxiety are both exhausting, and that exhaustion can slide into depression. Andrea specializes in these overlapping presentations and treats the full picture rather than a single label.
