Anxiety and Depression Treatment
Counseling and Treatment for Anxiety and Depression in Aurora, OH
Break free of depression and anxiety, step into joy and harmony
Depression and anxiety can be comorbid (co-exist together) or can be experienced separately. Depression/anxiety can be genetic, can be related to environmental stressors, or can be (and often is) a combination of both. No matter the origins, depression/anxiety causes extreme distress, is physically and emotionally debilitating and may interfere with daily functioning and the ability to experience peace and joy.
The experience of anxiety and depression is heavy and dark. Some days it may be difficult to focus, complete basic daily tasks, and even get out of bed in the morning. Depression can feel helpless, hopeless and dark; robbing us of joy in the moment and hope for the future. Some clients experience situational depression, which may be a more short term experience of symptoms that they need assistance with working through. Others struggle with long term depression (symptoms may wax and wane) for years. Either way, depression may leave us feeling helpless and alone, often feeling like there is nowhere to turn.
Anxiety can leave us feeling helpless, exhausted and debilitated. The inability to be fully present and enjoy the moment is truly distressing, and robs us of the joy we so richly deserve. The experience of anxiety symptoms can make it difficult to relax, focus, and manage overwhelming emotions. We may be bombarded with constant and uncontrollable fears and worries which rob us of joy, inner peace, and the ability to fully participate in relationships with those closest to us. Clients with anxiety frequently carry a “low grade” anxiety most days if not every day. This anxiety can "spike” with internal and external triggers. Anxiety disorder can be experienced with or without panic attacks.
Clients come to us having tried and failed therapy in the past, or are newly entering into the therapeutic process. Depression/anxiety is often a lonely and isolating experience leaving us not knowing where to turn for help and relief. Please know that you are not alone, we are here to walk with you on this journey. We stress to you- there is ALWAYS hope for healing, joy and inner peace.
