Depression Therapist Fort Worth, TX
It almost seems like we belong to a culture that throws around expressions like “I’m depressed!” so casually, as easily as it were a minor complaint, like a sore muscle or not finding the right outfit to wear. We even catch ourselves laughing about being depressed when we’re in mixed company. The sad fact is, depression is more than a minor ailment that quickly goes away. It’s not a laughing matter.
Have you been sad for long periods? Have you lost your ability to feel pleasure? Do you feel a sense of hopelessness or guilt? Have you experienced changes in your appetite or sleep?
Depression is a real condition, a disease of the mind that can be painful and persistent, affecting every aspect of your life and the ability to cope with life, enjoy it, and fully savor it.
Here’s the good news. An important thing to understand is that depression doesn’t mean you are permanently flawed. Nothing is lacking in you. You haven’t done something wrong. It doesn’t mean you or were raised improperly and must suffer the consequences. Most importantly, you don’t have to continue suffering.
Depression can be debilitating if ignored, but with therapy, you’ll learn to find your way out of the negative mind-track you’re circling around. You’ll learn to identify, process, and regulate your thoughts and emotions in constructive ways. With my help and your willingness to work on yourself, you will recover from depression and restart your life a fulfilled, happier person.
Hi There!
My name is Paula Lenard
I am a Native Texan and proud of it! :-), but I do also love to travel and explore the world beyond these Texas borders as often as possible.
It was while studying abroad in London to complete my degree at Texas Wesleyan University-Fort Worth that I learned how important it was to concentrate on hope; to look at possibilities not back at problems. There’s nothing we can do about the past, but we can change what we’re doing now, and that also affects our future. That Solution Focused-based approach completely changed my view about mental health.
There are two things that I adore in life: meeting new people and laughter. I don't think I could live without either. I love connecting with people. The power of connection starts at infancy. I can honestly say, I was served an extra dose of it. I have never met a stranger and never intend to. I'm sure this has something to do with my lifelong desire to be a therapist.
When I'm not in the office other ways I love to spend my time is being with my family and friends. I have two sons: one adult, the other a pre-teen, but I can't deny the love for my "me" time, which usually consists of a Chai Tea Latte (with vanilla), an overstuffed chair, a blanket, and a good book.
