Mood & Depression
Depression can feel heavy, sapping your energy, clouding your thoughts, and diminishing your sense of joy.
It’s more than just feeling “sad” — it can change how you perceive yourself, others, and your future. Mood struggles may vary, from persistent low feelings to periods of deep hopelessness, irritability, or emotional overwhelm.
At Navesink Wellness Center, we recognize that depression often reflects deeper experiences—unmet needs, unspoken grief, or unresolved stress. Our approach helps bring awareness to these underlying patterns, supporting you in regaining clarity, strength, and direction without judgment.
You don’t have to face this alone. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space where healing begins and new possibilities can take shape.
