Faq
How can therapy and hypnosis help with depression?
Depression affects both the conscious and subconscious mind, which is why Dr. Kass takes a dual approach. Therapy helps you identify negative thought patterns, process emotions, and build coping strategies, while hypnosis works on a deeper level to help you understand the limiting beliefs and emotional responses that fuel depression.
How do I know if I have depression or if I’m just going through a tough time?
We all go through rough patches, but depression is more than just a bad week. If you’re experiencing persistent sadness, loss of motivation, trouble sleeping, or feeling emotionally drained for weeks or months, it may be time to seek support.
What if I don’t feel like talking about my feelings?
That’s totally okay. Therapy isn’t about forcing conversations you’re not ready to have. Dr. Kass will meet you where you are, using a mix of talk therapy, hypnosis, and practical strategies that focus on relief, not just rehashing the past.
Can depression go away on its own?
Sometimes depression can ease over time, but often it lingers or gets worse without the right tools and support. Ignoring it doesn’t make it disappear, it just makes it harder to manage.
Is hypnosis safe for depression?
Yes! Ericksonian Hypnosis is a gentle, approach that helps shift negative thought patterns, reduce emotional distress, and increase motivation. It’s not about “mind control” or making you do weird things, it’s simply a tool to help your mind work for you, not against you.
Will I need medication, or can I manage depression without it?
Medication is one option, but it’s not the only one. Many people manage depression through therapy, hypnosis, lifestyle changes, and emotional processing. If you’re already on medication, therapy can make it even more effective. If you’re unsure, Dr. Kass can help you find the best path forward.
