Therapy for Anxiety & Depression
Anxiety and depression can show up in many different ways and often overlap. You might feel constantly on edge, caught in overthinking or unable to shake the sense that something is wrong, while at the same time feeling flat, exhausted or disconnected from things that used to matter to you. At times anxiety may be more prominent; at others, low mood, lack of motivation or a sense of hopelessness may take over. You may find yourself worrying about things but lacking the energy to deal with them, withdrawing from others while also feeling lonely, or struggling to understand why you feel this way when, from the outside, everything seems to be in place.
How therapy can help
Therapy can help you understand what may be contributing to anxiety and depression, rather than focusing only on managing the symptoms. We can explore current pressures alongside earlier experiences, relationships and patterns that may be shaping how you feel and respond to situations now.
The work can also involve developing practical ways to manage anxiety, low mood and periods of feeling overwhelmed. Over time, therapy can help you recognise patterns more clearly, respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, and develop a greater sense of choice in how you approach your life and relationships.
