I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

Feeling stock? Experiencing social-emotional symptoms that impact your daily functioning?
Depression
, anxiety, social pressure, unhealthy relationship, stress, fears and etc. are all symptoms of underling issues one can experience. At times, we feel stock in a situation, we get preoccupied with the negative symptoms we experience and we fail to give ourselves the chance to heal and understand that our symptoms exist to tell us “what’s happening now is not working for.” If worked on, symptoms are temporary and serve us as alerting signals calling our attention and for a change to take place.

Depression Therapists
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy by depression therapists in Aventura. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
