Depression Therapy in Houston
Evidence-based depression treatment for lasting relief
"I feel stuck and nothing seems to help."
You've been going through the motions, but everything feels heavy and overwhelming. Maybe you're struggling to get out of bed, losing interest in things you used to enjoy, or feeling like you're just surviving instead of living.
- Simple tasks feel exhausting and overwhelming
- You've lost motivation for work, relationships, or activities you once loved
- Negative thoughts are on a loop in your mind, making everything feel hopeless
- You feel disconnected from friends and family, even when they're trying to help
You might be dealing with persistent sadness, irritability, or feeling numb. Perhaps you're having trouble concentrating at work, sleeping more or less, eating more or less,or feeling guilty about things that aren't your fault.
Maybe people have told you to "think positive" or "just push through it," but if it were that simple, you would have done it already. You know something needs to change, but you're not sure where to start or if therapy can really help.
Depression isn't a character flaw or something you can just "snap out of." And depression is certainly not your fault. It's a real medical condition, with a high genetic predisposition, that affects millions of people, and with the right treatment, you can feel like yourself again.
We wish everyone understood that depression is highly treatable. With evidence-based therapy, you can rediscover joy, rebuild motivation, and create a life that feels meaningful again.
