Depression in Dayton, OH
If you're looking for a therapist for depression, you may want to consider working with the Patricia J. Hayes, Psy.D. in Centerville, OH. I work hard to help you to heal from depression, as well as to educate you about depression, its impact on your life, and how you might better cope with this condition.
About 20%% of Americans suffer with depression. The good news is that depression CAN be treated. Research has shown that for moderate to severe depression, the best results are obtained from a combination of medication AND therapy. Many kinds of therapy are helpful for depression; what is NOT helpful is to do nothing.
If you are feeling worthless, hopeless, or helpless, therapy can help. Trouble eating or sleeping ( too much or too little) can also indicate depression. Guilt, memory problems, thoughts about death, feeling like you're "walking through molasses" or feeling agitated, and losing interest in activities you used to enjoy are all hallmarks of depression from which Patricia J. Hayes, can help you heal.
I understand that seeking help for depression can be a difficult and emotional decision. Working together, I can help you to reclaim yourself, feel validated, and uncover the solutions you need to get back to your life.
I also strive to help my clients identify problems that often come along with depression, such as anxiety issues, intimacy problems, post-traumatic stress, Sexual-orientation and Gender confusion, and anger.
