Depression takes over and saps us of our motivation and energy. Let's define those symptoms and get them under control so that you can live the life you want to live. I can help you identify negative thoughts and replace them with positive or constructive ones, find coping strategies, learn problem-solving techniques, set goals, understand the effects your life experiences have on your symptoms, and identify issues that contribute to your depression.

Daniel Lazar
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MBA
Men often don't like to admit they are depressed for fear of looking weak. In truth, asking for help is not shameful; it takes tremendous courage. That's the first thing I tell my clients. From there, we explore the forces behind one's depression, such as brain chemistry, upbringing, present circumstances, and unhealthy coping mechanisms. This lays the foundation for talk-therapy and skills building, two therapeutic elements that help my clients get back where they belong.

Marianne Albina
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
We embark on a thoughtful exploration of the stories that shape an individual’s experience of sadness and despair. This process involves examining broader societal messages and their impact on internalized beliefs about self-worth and failure. Clients are guided to externalize their depression, viewing it as distinct from their identity. This reduces self-blame and creates space to thoroughly explore how depression operates and how to effectively confront it.

Depression
Ryan Muldoon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
For depression, many therapists recommend quickly getting into action with exercise, meditation, socializing, etc. These are certainly effective! But sometimes it's best to honor your depression. It’s possible that healing may begin by doing things society unfairly shames us for, like sleeping in, closing the curtain, or indulging in that pint of ice cream. My clients have reported feeling instant relief from the shame that’s lifted when they hear this. And from there, the healing continues.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
You can “have it all” and still feel deeply depressed—an issue that can be very confusing and shameful. Depression is stigmatized in our society which adds to the level of shame we can feel when we are experiencing it. Together we can unlock what is happening under the surface of your depression and better understand what changes you want to make to feel better in your skin.

So, you are depressed. What does that mean to you? How do you define that? What does the weight of that depression feel like, and how does it influence you? There is no doubt that you have asked yourself these questions, perhaps alone or even aloud to someone else. I offer a supportive space where we can unpack these and other questions, as well as explore the structures beneath the depressive thoughts and feelings.

Depression
Susan Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
More than feeling a little down in the dumps, depression is the overwhelming emotional exhaustion that comes from losing hope, feeling there isn't a purpose, and feeling like your life or circumstances have gotten away from you. Change feels impossible - and like too much work if we even knew where to start. Psychotherapy for depression offers a safe space to explore circumstances, thoughts, behaviors, and options. Therapy is a place to identify and challenge negative thoughts, build healthy coping strategies, and enhance self-esteem. In therapy, you'll gain compassionate support and evidence-based interventions that give you tools to rebuild and get through things.
