“In counseling, it is my privilege to enter your world and find out what has shaped you, what brings you joy, and understand the struggles that bring you to my 'office'. It has been my honor to work with people from wee little to those in their 80s...those struggling with anxiety, depression, life adjustments, trauma, and relational issues. Also to note, I have a firm faith in Jesus that shapes me and my perspective based on a traditional view of Scripture, and am open to incorporating faith into our sessions if you would like to do so. I have worked in Pennsylvania in various settings through in-home therapy for teens and their families and in outpatient offices. I also have lived abroad in South East Asia for about four years where I learned a new understanding of culture and working through life transitions. While there, I also had the privilege of working with ex-pats and those from the local community as well as nationals who have a more international background. I love the diversity of my experiences and look forward to being able to help more people in their various walks.”

Depression
Everyone knows what it feels like to get the blues once in a while. But depression is a serious illness that is more severe than a bad day and lasts much longer. Symptoms of depression stop a person from being able to function and enjoy daily activities for weeks or months at a time. It can happen to anyone, and it isn't something that people can control by force of will or "snap out of it."
Some common symptoms of depression include:
We don't yet know what causes depression, but it's thought that it is a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and social influences. Because of this, the most effective treatments for depression combine medication with psychotherapy. Therapy, especially cognitive-behavioral therapy, can be extremely helpful in resolving the negative thoughts and feelings that come with depression. It gives patients new tools that they can use themselves to cope when their depression is making them feel down.
Some of the common medications used to treat depression include antidepressants such as SSRI's (Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft) or atypical antidepressants (Cymbalta, Wellbutrin). It's important to remember that these medications have different effects on everybody, and no one medication works right for everyone. Patients may have to try a couple before finding the one that works just right for them. If the first medication they try doesn't work, they should talk to their doctor about trying something else. In extreme cases where medication is not enough, electro-convulsive therapy and hospitalization may be the answer to keeping a severely depressed person safe.
Depression is a difficult illness to deal with, but it is more common than believed and there are many people who can help. With the right treatment, individuals with depression can get back to fully enjoying life again.
