When your mind won’t slow down, or you can’t seem to move forward.

Anxiety and depression can show up in ways that are easy to overlook. You may find yourself overthinking every decision, anticipating what could go wrong, holding yourself to impossible standards, or avoiding situations that make you uncomfortable.

Therapy can help you understand what is keeping you stuck and develop new ways of responding to the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to anxiety and depression.

Therapy for Anxiety & Depression


Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Anxiety

Anxiety often thrives on uncertainty. Worrying, overanalyzing, seeking reassurance, or avoiding uncomfortable situations can provide temporary relief—but these strategies can unintentionally reinforce anxiety over time.

CBT helps you understand this cycle and gradually build your ability to tolerate uncertainty and respond differently to anxious thoughts and feelings.

    • Constantly worrying or overthinking

    • Feeling like your mind won’t “shut off”

    • Difficulty relaxing, even when things are going well

    • Feeling restless, tense, or on edge

    • Getting overwhelmed easily

    • Trouble sleeping because of racing thoughts

    • Difficulty concentrating

    • Avoiding situations because they make you anxious

    • Frequently needing reassurance

    • Feeling nervous or uncomfortable in social situations

    • Physical symptoms like a racing heart, tight chest, or upset stomach

    • Experiencing moments of intense fear or panic

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Depression

Depression can make it difficult to do the very things that might help you feel better. You may withdraw from people, lose interest in activities, become increasingly self-critical, or feel overwhelmed by even small tasks. These patterns can create a cycle in which low mood leads to less activity and connection, which can further deepen depression.

CBT helps identify these cycles and create opportunities for change. This may include examining harsh or hopeless thoughts, gradually reconnecting with meaningful activities, building more effective coping strategies, and identifying behaviors that may be maintaining low mood.

    • Feeling sad, empty, or emotionally drained

    • Losing interest in things you usually enjoy

    • Feeling tired or lacking motivation, even with everyday tasks

    • Having a hard time getting started or getting things done

    • Feeling hopeless, stuck, or like things won’t get better

    • Being more withdrawn or wanting to be alone

    • Changes in your sleep, such as sleeping too much or having trouble sleeping

    • Changes in your appetite or relationship with food

    • Having difficulty concentrating or making decisions

    • Being more irritable, frustrated, or emotionally sensitive

    • Feeling disconnected from yourself or the people around you

    • Being especially hard on yourself or feeling like you’re not “good enough”

    • Finding that these feelings are affecting your relationships, work, school, or everyday life
