Depression Therapists in Civano, Tucson, AZ
I see you. You’re doing all of the “right” things, but there’s a heaviness you just can’t shake. Maybe it’s the trappings of loneliness, grief, worry, or shame. You can’t remember the last time you felt like yourself, and it feels like it might be this way forever.
The wisdom of Ram Dass, who wrote, “We are all just walking each other home,” is central to my approach to your healing. Compassionate witnessing in a safe container is oftentimes all that’s needed to move the needle towards the wholeness that’s already within.

I offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) as the only advanced ART practitioner in Tucson, which can help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, dyslexia, ADHD, & more in as few as 1-5 sessions.
Clients who seek my services tend to be highly intelligent, high-achieving, analytical, creative types who strive for success not just in the workplace. They may have experienced profound trauma, which did not "break" them, but instead propelled them to be the best at what they chose to pursue. Clients may struggle with perfectionism & over-functioning, and as a result find themselves in loops of rumination, maladaptive coping, difficulties in relationships, & just feeling stuck. Clients may understand their issues logically, but their nervous system and "emotional" side can't seem to catch up. Sound like you?

As a result you may be feeling depressed, anxious, have difficulty sleeping, experiencing mood changes, have angry outbursts or perhaps you’re drinking a little too much, eating too much or too little.
The therapeutic process is one that explores your thoughts which can affect how you feel and how you react. Your feelings stem from those thoughts. It is not wrong to think and feel as you do however how you handle them can make all the difference.

Thoughts are very powerful things. Sometimes we get stuck in negative, self-defeating thought spirals. We might think we're not good enough or that we're somehow undeserving of love, respect, and success. Often these thoughts are so automatic that we simply accept them as true. My goal as a therapist is to help people examine and question their negative self-beliefs. With a more accurate and balanced understanding of our talents, strengths, and value, our lives become fuller as we open up to new possibilities.

What is the goal of therapy for depression?
Therapy for depression has several major goals. One is to relieve the mental pain of depression, which distorts feeling and thinking so that sufferers cannot see beyond their current state of mind or envision feeling better. Another is to give people the mental tools to recognize and correct the kinds of distorted thinking that turn a problem into a catastrophe and lead to despair. Therapy also teaches people how to process negative emotions in constructive ways, so they have more control over their own emotional reactivity. And it helps people regain the ability to see themselves positively, the motivation to do things, and the capacity for pleasure.
What happens in therapy for depression?
Perhaps most important, no matter the type of therapy, patients form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Patients learn to identify and to challenge their own erroneous beliefs and thoughts that amplify the effects of negative experiences. They learn to identify situations in which they are especially vulnerable. And they learn new patterns of thinking and behaving. They may be given “homework” assignments in which they practice their developing skills. In addition, good therapists regularly monitor patients to assess whether and how much the condition is improving.
What therapy types help with depression?
Several types of short-term therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients challenge their negative thoughts and beliefs, learn new behavioral strategies, and curb reactivity to distressing situations. Behavioral activation (BA) is a form of therapy often used in conjunction with CBT; it focuses on engagement in rewarding activity as a pathway to changing negative feelings and disturbed mood. Another widely used approach is interpersonal therapy (IPT), which targets the social difficulties that both give rise to and get exacerbated by depression. Therapists may combine approaches as needed.
Can therapy for depression be done online?
Studies have found that online therapy can be highly effective for treating depression, although it may be more challenging to build a good therapist-patient alliance on screen than in person—at least at first. However, online therapy can offer considerable advantages. Accessibility and convenience are tops among them. Some people actually find it easier to talk about problems online than in person. While online therapy typically limits visibility of facial expression and body gestures that give important nonverbal cues to a patient’s state of mind, it can give therapists a glimpse into a patient’s world and life, providing information that can be highly useful in guiding therapy.
How effective is therapy for depression?
Many studies show that therapy is highly effective provided that patients complete the prescribed course of therapy, commonly 16 to 20 sessions. Over the long term, it is more effective than medication and the effects are more enduring. As a result, psychotherapy has the power not just to relieve current suffering but to prevent future episodes of the disorder. Therapy reverses the dysfunction in neural circuitry that disposes individuals to a negative view of themselves, the world, and their future and they acquire coping techniques, problem-solving skills, and understanding of their own vulnerabilities that are useful over the course of a lifetime.
