Are you looking for a Denton Therapist?

Deep Growth Counseling is honored to serve the Denton community. Whether you’re a UNT student, a young professional, or a Denton-area resident experiencing depression or anxiety, we can help.

As a city packed with students and recent graduates, Denton is full of people experiencing major life changes. Life transitions can cause you to question who you are, how you fit into a new environment, and wonder about your ability to live the life you want to live. They can magnify current insecurities, or bring up past emotional vulnerabilities that haven’t been experienced in years.

Counseling can help you understand yourself more deeply, make sense of the current way you feel, and help you grow in healing ways that can make lasting changes in your life. See below for more about how Deep Growth Counseling can help.

Counseling in Denton

Whether there are clear reasons for your current difficulties, or whether the way you feel is a complete mystery to you, the process of therapy can help you make lasting changes within yourself and in your life.

There are many clinical studies demonstrating the efficacy of individual therapy. The below link from the APA page “Recognition of Psychotherapy Effectiveness” is a helpful summary, though in no way exhaustive: https://www.apa.org/about/policy/resolution-psychotherapy#

Counseling can help you:

Develop a deeper understanding of yourself. This can lead to a change in relationship with yourself, allowing for both self-acceptance and growth.
Improve relationships with others by discovering and exploring your habitual ways of relating.
Work through internal and external obstacles you consistently experience, and gaining inner capacities to change these dynamics if you desire to do so.
Develop more harmony between conflicting parts of yourself. This conflict can often be the root of the distressing symptoms you are experiencing.
Experience your life as more meaningful and fulfilling.

Anxiety Counseling in Denton

Anxiety counseling can help you:

Begin to rewire your nervous system in a way that allows your anxiety to work for you instead of against you.
Develop a different relationship with your anxiety, allowing you to more effectively tolerate it.
Grow in your ability to more effectively release the things in life you do not have control over.
Feel more comfortable in your own skin in a wider range of life situations.
Speak and express yourself more freely, without second-guessing yourself every step of the way.
Identify and work towards a deeper resolution of core experiences that seem to have influenced the current anxious patterns you are suffering from.

Depression Counseling in Denton

Depression can be a confusing and lonely experience. It tends to make you feel disconnected from others and the world, and can make it incredibly difficult to make yourself be present and engaged. A common experience is noticing how others around you are able to “live life”, and find yourself unable to do so. This makes it all the more painful.

There can be many factors contributing to depression including current life circumstances, trauma, unresolved emotional vulnerabilities from past experiences, genetic factors, feelings of loss, patterns of self-criticism, or a recent change that has caused you to lose previously meaningful aspects of your life.

Depression counseling can help you:

Identify and work through emotional vulnerabilities from the past that contribute to your depression.
Work towards a more helpful and healing relationship with yourself, reducing excessive self-criticism and guilt.
Become more conscious of patterns within yourself and with others that contribute to your depressive feelings, and work to change them as you see fit.
Identify ways you might undervalue your own needs, and/or have difficulty asserting them in a healthy way.
Re-establish feelings of meaning and purpose in your life.
