Depression Therapy
Are You Over Feeling Disconnected From Yourself and Others?
Do you ever feel like you’re moving through life on autopilot—physically present, but emotionally checked out? Maybe it’s hard to find joy in things that used to light you up, or you’ve pulled away from people because connecting just feels like too much effort.
If there were a soundtrack to your life, would it sound like a low, heavy hum—the kind that makes everything feel muted? Depression has a way of doing that. It can make even simple tasks feel exhausting and turn moments of calm into reminders of how distant you feel from yourself.
Depression can make it difficult to connect, leading to withdrawal, communication struggles, and a deep sense of loneliness. Over time, it can seep into every part of life—relationships, work, physical health, and overall well-being. You might notice it as fatigue, irritability, loss of interest, difficulty concentrating, or a persistent feeling of hopelessness that won’t quite lift.
These aren’t signs of failure—they’re signals from a mind and body asking for compassion and care.
Through depression therapy, you can begin to reconnect with your vitality, rebuild self-trust, and rediscover a sense of meaning in your life. Using modalities like EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic work, we’ll gently untangle the patterns that keep you feeling stuck and support your return to wholeness.
At Anne Giles Counseling, our work together helps you remember that connection, joy, and peace aren’t gone—they’re waiting to be rediscovered. You deserve to feel alive again.

The Quiet Weight of Depression in Our Lives
Imagine depression as a heavy fog—soft at first, but slowly blurring the edges of everything that once felt clear. It can make even the simplest moments feel distant, draining your energy and dimming your connection to the world around you. Depression doesn’t always look like sadness; often, it hides behind exhaustion, irritability, or a quiet disinterest in things that once brought joy.
Depression can make it difficult to connect with others, leading to withdrawal, communication struggles, and a deep sense of disconnection. Over time, this distance can grow into loneliness or isolation, making it hard to believe that relief is possible. Its impact often touches every corner of life—relationships, work, physical health, and your overall sense of well-being.
You might notice it in your mind and body:
Difficulty concentrating or staying present
Irritability or restlessness
Fatigue or low motivation
Feelings of hopelessness or helplessness
Sleep or appetite changes
Loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities
These responses aren’t signs of weakness—they’re signals from a body and mind that have been carrying too much for too long.
Depression therapy offers a space to lighten that weight and reconnect with the parts of you that still long for color, warmth, and meaning. Through EMDR, somatic work, and parts-based (IFS) therapy, we explore both the emotional and physical roots of your pain—helping you rebuild trust in yourself and rediscover your capacity for joy.
At Anne Giles Counseling, healing means remembering that you are not broken—you’re becoming whole.
Our Comprehensive Approach to Depression Therapy
At Anne Giles Counseling, we understand how depression can quietly affect every part of life—making it difficult to connect with others, communicate openly, or feel present in your own body. Over time, this disconnection can deepen into loneliness and a sense of emotional isolation, leaving you feeling detached from the people and things you love.
Depression often shows up in both the mind and body—through fatigue, irritability, changes in sleep or appetite, difficulty concentrating, or a loss of interest in activities that once brought joy. Its reach extends beyond mood alone, impacting relationships, work, physical health, and overall well-being.
Through EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic work, we explore the deeper patterns and experiences that contribute to depressive symptoms. These approaches help you reconnect to your body, process emotional blocks, and rebuild a sense of self-trust and purpose.
Our goal isn’t just symptom relief—it’s helping you rediscover vitality, connection, and meaning. Healing from depression means remembering that you’re not broken—you’re finding your way back to wholeness.

If these experiences feel familiar or persistent, therapy can help you explore what’s beneath them and find a path forward.
