Therapists in Rutherford, NJ
When you are depressed, it is difficult to keep up with your day to day responsibilities like taking care of the family and working. In fact, just getting up and getting dressed can be a major hurdle. Depression is more than just a feeling for many people so if you have felt depressed for no obvious reason for more than a couple of weeks, you should talk to a therapist.
Rutherford has plenty of awesome therapists who specialize in depression as well as other mental illnesses. They also have some fun things to do that you have probably not felt like doing such as Sunset Park, the Meadowlands Museum, and Zelenka Park. Talk to a therapist today about getting some help.

I work primarily with young adults (college, 20-30 somethings) through various life changes and transitions, that include relationships and social issues, academic stress, and significant life changes like new jobs or location changes. Significant change is a normal part of young adulthood, but it can be a stressful and confusing time. I've also worked successfully with issues such as phobias & specific fears, intrusive thoughts, and health anxiety & serious medical illness diagnoses, and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
