Depression & Emotional Regulation Therapy

When emotions feel too heavy to carry or too big to control, it can feel isolating — like something is wrong with you rather than something you're going through. Therapy can help you understand what's happening and build a different relationship with these emotions.

What This Can Look Like

Clients come to me while navigating:

  • Persistent low mood, heaviness, or loss of motivation

  • Difficulty regulating intense emotions

  • Self-harm or urges to self-harm

  • Anger that feels hard to control or that shows up in ways you don't want

How We Work Through It Together

This work is never about judgment — it's about understanding what your emotions are communicating and building tools to respond differently. In our work together, we may draw on:

  • DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) — skills for managing intense emotions and reducing harmful coping patterns

  • CBT — working through the thought patterns that fuel depression or reactive anger

  • ACT and mindfulness — building space between a feeling and your response to it

  • Mind-body somatic practices — nervous system-informed work, since emotional dysregulation often has a physical component

A Space Without Judgment

Whatever you're experiencing, you don't have to minimize it or wait until things feel "bad enough." Reaching out is a strong first step.
