Depression Therapy in Peterborough
Understanding Depression
Depression can make the world feel muted... colours fade, motivation disappears, and it feels harder to find joy. In Peterborough, where community and nature blend together, many people hide their depression behind routines and responsibilities. Therapy can help you untangle your thoughts, process your emotions, and start feeling like yourself again.
If your low mood comes with anxious thoughts or overthinking, anxiety therapy might also be helpful to explore.
How Therapy Can Help
At Tiny Therapy Collective, we use evidence-based approaches designed to help you manage depression and build emotional strength:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy: To identify and reframe negative thinking.
-
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy: To balance emotions and build mindfulness.
-
Cognitive Processing Therapy: To process unresolved experiences or guilt.
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: To help you take meaningful, values-based steps toward wellbeing.
-
Behavioural Activation: To re-engage in daily activities that restore structure and joy.
You may also benefit from exploring therapy for self-esteem or life transitions, especially if recent changes have impacted your confidence or mood.
