Depression
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression is not sadness. Sadness moves. Depression is what happens when a person has been cut off from the things that would allow them to feel anything at all — desire, anger, grief, want. It is a withdrawal from the full range of being alive, and it often began as protection. Something was too much, and the system shut down. The work is not to cheer you up. The work is to find out what got buried and whether it is safe, now, to feel it.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Depression therapy, also known as psychotherapy or talk therapy, is a highly effective treatment option for those with depressive symptoms. Depression is a mood disorder typified by persistent melancholy, hopelessness, and a loss of interest or delight in formerly pleasurable activities. Individuals can investigate the underlying causes of their depression, acquire coping skills, and make positive adjustments in a safe and confidential setting provided by therapy.
The choice of therapy depends on the individual's unique requirements, the severity of melancholy, and treatment objectives. Numerous clinicians may employ a combination of therapeutic approaches tailored to the unique circumstances of each patient.
It is critical to recognize that depression therapy is frequently a collaborative effort between the clinician and the client. The therapeutic relationship is essential for treatment efficacy. If you or someone you know is struggling with depression, it is recommended to seek assistance from a qualified mental health professional with experience treating depression in order to develop an individualized, comprehensive treatment plan.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression sometimes may feel like a mud pile, that we struggle to escape from. You may be experiencing sadness, loss of appetite, hopelessness, or loss of interest in activities or social interactions. You may struggle to find the motivation to change but you know you can benefit from a little transformation. Depression is a presenting symptom, it is not the root of the issue. Discovering and treating the root of the issue, so the symptom would not occur or repeat again is my goal as your therapist.

Depression
Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
While depression isn't my primary focus a recent meta-analysis (study combining many studies) proved that focusing on treating worry and anxiety relieves depression as much as targeting it directly. My unique and simple approach to cognitive therapy for anxiety applies equally well to depression. Nonetheless, when we used relaxation only, to target worry and anxiety, it lifted depression as much as those groups who used cognitive therapy. However, if you are so depressed that you have recently contemplated suicide, I suggest you see someone in a group practice or someone who is willing to take emergency calls 24/7 because I do not do that.

Depression
Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults experiencing depression, including persistent low mood, loss of motivation, emotional numbness, or a sense of disconnection from themselves and their lives. Depression often develops in response to long-standing patterns, life events, or internal pressures, and can narrow perspective over time.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how depressive states are organised internally and what they may be responding to. Rather than focusing on quick solutions or positive thinking, the work centres on making sense of experience and gently widening possibilities. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Depression
Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals experiencing depression in its many forms, from persistent low mood and loss of motivation to more complex, longstanding patterns of disconnection and hopelessness. Depression often impacts not just how someone feels, but how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future.
My approach is both compassionate and active. I focus on understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to depression, while also helping clients re-engage with their lives in meaningful, manageable ways. Together, we work to identify what may be keeping them stuck, build greater emotional awareness, and gradually restore a sense of agency, connection, and vitality.
I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without being overwhelmed, and supported without being pushed too quickly—allowing change to unfold in a way that is both sustainable and deeply felt.

Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
Depression can effect a person in many ways. My approach to treating depression attempts to find the original causes of the depression. Although depression can attack a person in several areas of life, there are usually certain reasons for them to be exhibiting depressive symptoms. Often therapy consists of prescribing a person an antidepressant and sending them on their way without ever addressing the reason they are depressed in the first place. I will work with you to find the underlying reasons why you are depressed.

Depression
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I view depression from a systemic perspective, looking at the client's entire life to establish what may be causing or exacerbating the client's depression symptoms. Then the client and I collaborate on goals to improve the client's mood and overall wellness. Treating depression I will always be using integrative therapy techniques because no one therapy is right for every aspect of a person's depression.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Depression can manifest in many different ways for different people. Some are struggling to recover from a loss or setback and just can't find a way to get back to their old selves. Others may have struggled with shifting mood, confidence, energy, self-esteem, etc. for what seems like their whole lives and very few things seem to work. Many individuals used to have a full life with many rewarding relationships and activities but, at some point, what used to bring them happiness no longer does it for them. Finally, some people experience depressive "episodes" beginning in their late teens or early adulthood that appear to come and go without any trigger and feel more like a traditional "chemical imbalance." My approach to depression offers something different for individuals who have not had much success with traditional CBT and/or "talk" therapies. I utilized a combination evidence-based behavioral activities and emotion regulation skills to first restore positive experiences in your day to day life. Once short-term strategies for increasing wellbeing have been established, we will explore and process the impact depression has had across your life to further build your resilience against future recurrences of unhelpful mood fluctuations.

Montgomery is Alabama's state capital and a city with profound civil rights significance — the birthplace of the bus boycott, home to the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, and site of the National Memorial for Peace and Justice — and this history creates a distinctive clinical context in which racial identity, community trauma, and intergenerational resilience are active themes. The city has a majority Black population and a state government workforce, generating therapy demand that spans from the particular stresses of public service careers to the cultural and emotional dimensions of living in a place where the history of racism is physically present. Baptist Health and Jackson Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Alabama State University and Faulkner University contribute to the local training ecosystem, and the city's strong faith community means spiritually integrated therapy is an important part of the local offering.
