Welcome
If you are feeling drab, without energy, and you cannot seem to get out of it, call for a free consultation. Depression appears in many different forms.
DEPRESSION
- Clinically, depression is a disruptive consistent mood disorder which may manifest in varying levels of intensity and duration. An accurate up-to-date explanation of depression can be found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). To determine the clinical level of your depression, a diagnosis is available by referral to our licensed Psychologist or licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. At CIC, we focus on breaking the immobilizing effects of depression which may appear as lethargy, irritability, sadness, forced happiness, diminished concentration, lost sex drive, or the inability to carry on with your daily life. It can be detected in the very language you use. Depression permeates our global society. You are not alone. The causes are as numerous as the symptoms, and most importantly, you are not at fault.
Anxiety
Anxiety and depression often occur together. According to the US Census Bureau, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the rates of anxiety and depression have tripled in less than a year. General anxiety can be related to separations, social phobias, medications, and misperceptions. Most common today is a hypervigilant anxiety associated with fear of Covid-19. This can occur in increasing intensity culminating in hopelessness therefore diagnosis can play an important role in life coaching strategies. At CIC, coaching is integrated with psychotherapeutic considerations since we are trained therapists as well. Particularly with anxiety, a focus on future behavior (coaching) may benefit from considering elements of your past which is the work of psychotherapy.
