Depression can manifest itself through many symptoms: tears, sadness, anxiety, bad sleep, lack of appetite or overeating…  and can lead overtime to isolation and despair. Depression is not always a psychiatric disorder and can be a response to upsetting events.

Psychotherapy helps to identify and deal with the underlying issues in a safe environment.
