Depression
Depression is more than feeling sad, It causes severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working.
Psychotherapy such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Medications can help but this approach requires that your Therapist has an understanding of psychopharmacology and works closely with your prescribing Psychiatrist.
Anxiety and OCD
General Anxiety as well as specific anxiety conditions such as Social or Performance Anxiety and even OCD (Obsessive-compulsive Disorder) can be extremely difficult to cope with and quite challenging to treat. A combination of Specialized psychotherapies and medicine can make a dramatic difference but requires close collaboration between your Therapist and prescribing Psychiatrist.

We all experience it - life events can become overwhelming. Thats when taking extra care of yourself becomes really important. Get enough rest, eat well, engage in activities that bring you joy.

A mental health expert can provide valuable perspective and guidance
