Depression
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Depression can feel like a dense, dark, and heavy blanket that weighs us down, sucks the joy out of life, impairs concentration and focus, leads us to question why we are living and if the hardship is worth it, makes us feel stuck, and confuses our brains into believing that we are worthless and that the negative feelings will last forever. Therapy can be essential in reducing symptoms, shifting the "stories" we tell ourselves about ourselves, more effectively coping with loss and upset, learning self-care, managing and healing from trauma, and shifting perspective so that we can feel better and develop lasting changes.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my therapeutic approach to helping individuals heal from depression, I draw upon my expertise as a licensed psychologist and neuropsychologist to provide a comprehensive and holistic path towards recovery. One of the core techniques I utilize is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is highly effective in reshaping the way negative memories are stored in the brain. As a neuropsychologist, I focus on rewiring the brain to release the grip of negative thought patterns and facilitate the creation of new neuropathways centered around self-love, gratitude, and empowerment.
Recognizing the significant impact of repetitive thought patterns on mental well-being, I emphasize thought conditioning as a cornerstone of my approach. I empower individuals to rewire their brains for more adaptive thinking by teaching them techniques and strategies that lead to positive and constructive thought patterns. At the heart of my methodology is the cultivation of self-love, a fundamental component of mental and emotional healing.
To achieve these transformative goals, I integrate various therapeutic tools and practices, including affirmations, meditation, journaling, and self-care routines. Additionally, I possess the skills necessary to assist individuals in uncovering and addressing blind spots and underlying core beliefs that may be contributing to their depression. By guiding my clients through this comprehensive process, I aim to empower them to take control of their mental health, embrace self-love, and ultimately find their path towards a brighter, more fulfilling life.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in depression, my treatment approach is comprehensive and tailored to each individual's needs. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy (IPT), and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), I work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors contributing to their depression. By exploring underlying factors such as past traumas, life stressors, and interpersonal conflicts, we develop coping strategies and problem-solving skills to manage symptoms effectively. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, including regular exercise, healthy sleep habits, and social support networks, to promote overall well-being. My goal is to empower individuals to regain a sense of control over their lives, enhance resilience, and experience greater fulfillment and joy.

Strides in Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PSY.D.
veryone has times when they are sad or overwhelmed. Many people choose tocome to therapy even when they are not Clinically Depressed to prevent the downward spiral of negative thoughts and emotions. Therapy provides a way of looking at stressors and losses from a new perspective. It offers a place to organize your life and thoughts, as well as a venue for expressing your emotions. This often prevents the loss of relationships and productivity that can come with being clinically depressed. It can also prevent making choices, while feeling depressed, that are later regretted.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships that are not meeting our needs, the stressors of life, and feeling stuck or unsatisfied professionally can lead to prolonged feelings of sadness. Perhaps your childhood experiences did not give you the opportunity to develop a strong sense of who you are or that you matter. Therapy can help you regulate the intensity of depression and make a pivot in how you respond to its presence, making way for less struggle and more opportunities for choosing how you want to live.

All therapists are trained to treat depression. Depression can be a primary problem or can be secondary to other problems. Treatment begins with a thorough review of the individual's life history and current circumstances along with consideration of physical conditions that may be contributing to the state of mind. The focus of treatment grows out of these discussions.
