Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and depression are both emotional disorders that you may suffer from at any time in your life. Still, symptoms of both disorders can be exacerbated if you are experiencing discord in your relationship. It is important to sort out if your dissatisfaction and hopelessness are due to underlying emotional conflicts, a chronic disorder that presented early in life, such as Generalized Anxiety or Depressive Disorder, or if these are mostly a result of the ongoing discord in your relationship.

During the consultation appointment, I will give this question considerable attention to develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs. If the anxiety and/or depression are particularly severe and disabling, individual treatment may be indicated before couples therapy can begin.
