DEPRESSION THERAPY | BROOMFIELD & LONGMONT, CO

When Living Feels Like a Struggle

Depression is more than just feeling sad; it's a relentless weight that drains your energy, dulls your perspective, and makes simple tasks feel impossible. It often disguises itself as irritability, exhaustion, or simply not caring about things you once loved. Depression is not a character flaw or a sign of weakness.

If you've been feeling isolated, lacking motivation, or struggling to see a positive future, it's time to find a guide who understands this heavy landscape. You don't have to carry this alone. True Hum Counseling can help you develop the tools, insights, and support to restore your mental and emotional momentum.

When you are struggling with depression, you are often burdened by a deep sense of futility—a constant battle against overwhelming fatigue, internal criticism, and emotional numbness. Every day can feel like a tremendous effort. This isn't a failure of will; it's a powerful and overwhelming experience that disconnects you from your own life, passions, and sense of purpose.

I approach depression as a sign that something vital within you is shut down and needs reconnection. My goal is to create a consistently compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can safely explore this disconnection and reclaim your fundamental capacity for joy and engagement.

We won’t focus solely on the sadness. We'll collaborate on a personalized journey to fill the void, restoring your sense of self and clarifying what truly gives your life meaning. Counseling for depression centers on three core objectives—meaningfully addressing any underlying influences from the past, developing immediate skills to manage daily energy and motivation in the present, and nurturing a strong sense of connection for the future. We honor the unique weight of your experience and work at a sustainable pace.

Therapy for depression is a committed, worthwhile process. It empowers you to dismantle negative thought patterns, restore your personal momentum, and develop the lasting inner tools to create a life rich with purpose and fulfillment.

Depression Therapy: Your Next Step Toward Relief

Healing from depression is a journey of small, consistent actions that change your brain over time.

It requires effort, but you don't have to do the heavy lifting alone. I partner with you to provide the structure, expertise, and support needed to break the cycle.

  • Immediate Stabilization: We start by establishing basic behaviors (sleep, movement, routine) to immediately combat physical lethargy and create a foundation for holistic healing.

  • Challenging the Voice of Depression: I use techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to identify and restructure the distorted, negative thought patterns and behaviors that fuel the depression.

  • Re-engagement and Joy: We’ll work to thoughtfully and sustainably reintroduce purpose, connection, and activity back into your life. We’ll uncover and strengthen areas that bring you meaning and satisfaction.
