Depression Therapy in Colorado

If low mood persists for weeks and affects sleep, appetite, energy, concentration, or interest in activities, therapy can help. Colorado's altitude and seasonal changes can intensify symptoms.

CBT and Behavioral Activation are the most evidence-based treatments. We also use ACT and interpersonal therapy tailored to your specific symptoms.

Combining therapy with medication is often more effective than either alone. Therapy builds coping skills and resilience that persist long-term.

While Colorado has 300+ days of sunshine, high altitude, dry air, and shorter winter days can contribute to Seasonal Affective Disorder and worsen existing depression.

Many clients experience noticeable improvement within 8-12 sessions of CBT. Moderate to severe depression may require 16-20 sessions.
