Our licensed clinicians understand that depression looks different for everyone. Whether your depression is rooted in stress, trauma, life transitions, work pressure, or relationships, we tailor treatment to your specific experience — not a one-size-fits-all approach.

What Depression Often Feels Like

Depression looks different for everyone. It isn’t always sadness — often, it’s a lack of feeling.

You may be experiencing:

Persistent sadness or low mood

Fatigue or lack of motivation

Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

Changes in sleep or appetite

Feelings of hopelessness or guilt

Withdrawal from relationships

Loss of interest in activities

"You don't need to wait until things feel unbearable to seek help. Depression therapy provides space to process emotions and build strategies for sustainable healing."
