Depression

Are you feeling hopeless, isolated, and not your usual self?

Do these thoughts often enter your mind?

I am worthless and can’t do anything about it.
I feel guilty for just wanting to eat, sleep and be alone.
I hate who I am these days.
I can’t stop crying, which makes me want to stay away from others.
I feel gut-wrenching pain, but no one understands.
My life and the world around me are dark. I hate it, but I can’t change it.

If you have had any variation of these thoughts and don’t feel like your usual self, chances are you may be suffering from depression.

I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.

If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today for a free consultation.

Grief

Grief and bereavement aren’t light-hearted topics. Bereavement refers to the process of recovering from the death of a loved one, and grief is a reaction to any form of loss. Both encompass a wide range of emotions such as fear, anger, and deep, deep sadness.

The process of adapting to a loss can dramatically change from person to person, depending on his or her background, beliefs, relationship to the person who’s passed, and other factors.

Common symptoms of grief can be physical, emotional, or social.

A few common symptoms in these categories are:

Physical

Crying and sighing
Headaches
Loss of appetite
Difficulty sleeping
Weakness
Fatigue

Emotional

Feelings of sadness and yearning
Feelings of worry or anger
Feelings of frustration or guilt

Social

Feeling detached from others
Self-isolation from social contact
Behaving in ways that are not normal for you

Every grieving experience is different. A person may be able to continue their day-to-day routine after one loss, yet not be able to get out of bed after the loss of someone else. Whatever your personal symptoms are, grief and bereavement counseling have been proven to help.
