Hello, I’m Bella Boroniec, LCSW, and at Long Island Therapy, we understand the profound impact that depression can have on your life. Our practice is committed to providing compassionate and effective support as you navigate the challenges of depression and embark on a path to healing

Depression is a complex and multifaceted condition that goes beyond mere sadness. It can feel like a heavy cloud that dims your outlook on life, drains your energy, and robs you of the ability to experience joy. At Long Island Therapy, we recognize the depth of this struggle, and we are here to help you find your way out of the darkness.

In the battle against depression, finding the motivation to take even the smallest steps can be a monumental task. We specialize in Behavioral Activation, an evidence-based approach that can help you regain your sense of purpose and motivation. Behavioral Activation involves planning and engaging in activities, even when it seems impossible or daunting.

Imagine waking up with the weight of depression pressing down on you, making it difficult to get out of bed or engage in daily life. Behavioral Activation encourages you to plan and participate in activities, no matter how small they may seem. It’s about breaking free from the cycle of avoidance and rediscovering the simple pleasures that life has to offer.

Overcoming depression often begins with the power of self-motivation. Just as going for a run can lift your spirits, engaging in activities, even when you lack the initial enthusiasm, can lead to positive changes in your emotional well-being. Believe that these actions can improve your mood, even if it feels challenging at first.

Depression can often be traced back to past traumatic experiences. Whether recent or deeply rooted in childhood, identifying these triggers is a vital step toward healing. At Long Island Therapy, we work with you to uncover these underlying causes and address them effectively.

Adjustment Disorder is a common diagnosis in our practice, often accompanied by symptoms of depression or anxiety. This disorder can be triggered by stressful or traumatic events, and our aim is to help you navigate and alleviate the symptoms associated with it.

I understand that depression can be a challenging topic and my commitment to your well-being is unwavering.

Depression can be an overwhelming journey, but you don’t have to walk it alone. Long Island Therapy is here to stand beside you, offering guidance, support, and the tools to reclaim your life from the clutches of depression.
