Depression Therapy

Marisol Achirica is an English-speaking psychotherapist in Mérida, Yucatán, with 25+ years of experience and 70 five-star Google reviews. She offers depression therapy in Mérida, both in person and online via Zoom, for people living with low mood, exhaustion, and a loss of interest in life.

Depression isn’t weakness, and it isn’t laziness. It’s a real condition that affects how you think, sleep, and feel, and it responds well to treatment. In therapy we look at what keeps you low, and we work, step by step, toward feeling like yourself again.

How Depression Can Feel

Everyone experiences it differently. These are some of the common ways it shows up:

How We Work With Depression

My approach blends cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with a humanistic and psychodynamic perspective. You learn practical ways to rebuild energy and motivation in daily life, and together we understand the deeper roots of your depression, so the change holds.

I work especially well with sensitive, thoughtful people who carry more than they show. Depression can run deeper when you’re far from home, building a life in a new country without the support network you grew up with. As an English-speaking therapist, I offer a space where you can put all of that into words.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about depression

Therapy gives you a steady place to understand what’s pulling you down and what keeps it going. We combine practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy with deeper work on the patterns underneath, so you can rebuild energy, motivation, and a sense of meaning. The work is tailored to you, never a fixed formula.
Sadness comes and goes with what’s happening in your life, and it lifts. Depression settles in and stays, often for weeks or months, draining your energy, sleep, and interest in things you used to enjoy. When low mood starts affecting your daily life, it’s worth talking to someone.
Not always. Many people work through depression with therapy alone. In some cases medication helps, and it’s always prescribed by a doctor or psychiatrist, never by me. If you might benefit from it, I’ll help you find the right support.
It depends on you and how long you’ve felt this way. Many people notice some relief in the first few weeks. Deeper, lasting change usually takes a few months of steady work. I can’t promise a fixed timeline, and I won’t pretend depression has a quick cure.
Yes. I work in both English and Spanish, with in-person sessions in Mérida, Yucatán, and online sessions via Zoom anywhere in the world. Online therapy for depression works with the same depth as meeting in person.
