Rick Brodsky
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Depression is very common, yet the origins and its presentation can be variable. We can explore what methodologies are a best fit for you. Typically, I find psychodynamic talk therapy to be useful as we work collaboratively to develop insight and understanding. Cognitive behavioral therapy can provide us many strategies and new perspectives. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps us to think flexibly and make choices that are aligned with our values.

Chris Karcher
Psychologist, PsyD
Some research suggests that one in ten people currently have clinical depression and in a lifetime one out of five people will have depression. Although this is referred to as the 'common cold' of mental health issues, it can involve immense suffering. I draw from ACT, CBT and other modalities to help. For some people being listened to and understood by another person helps recovery from 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.

Amy L. Holdbrooks, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, ALC, BSW
Even fleeting feelings of depression must not be minimized or dismissed. When depression sets in, it can feel ominous and dark, leaving one with an overwhelming sense of despair. Just as humans are complex, so are their reactions to the unpleasant onset of emotion. Depression is idiosyncratic. [One’s response to it is resolute, distinctive, and characteristic of only their composition.]

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
We approach depression as a complex, multifaceted experience that cannot be reduced to a single cause or treated with a one-size-fits-all method. Each person’s depression is shaped by a unique interplay of biological, psychological, relational, and environmental factors, and we tailor our work accordingly. Our approach is integrative and draws from several evidence-based therapeutic orientations. From Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that may be maintaining depressive symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) informs our focus on helping clients develop psychological flexibility, build a different relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings, and reconnect with what matters most to them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical skills for managing intense emotions, increasing distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Schema Therapy allows us to explore and work through deeper, longstanding patterns rooted in early life experiences that often underlie chronic or recurring depression. Rather than applying these approaches rigidly, we integrate them in a way that fits each individual’s needs, goals, and values. Our aim is not only to reduce symptoms, but to support clients in building a more meaningful, resilient, and self-compassionate way of living.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I know depression. I know its pain. I know the feeling of desperation and feeling totally disempowered and frightened that often comes with depression.
I became a clinical psychologist precisely because I wanted to learn how to help people who suffer with depression as I have in the past. It is black and it is lonely. But it does not have to be allowed to take over your life. You CAN take your life back by taking your mood back. I can show you how to begin to do it.
People too frequently say "I am depressed" when what they really mean is "I feel sad". "Depression" is a clinical disorder, and it is only appropriate to say someone is "depressed" if they meet all the criteria for depression.
Assessments of depression will measure the clinical symptoms of depression but what does it FEEL like on a daily basis? When you feel depressed, you are not thinking about the clinical symptoms, you are thinking and feeling more along the lines of just being "stuck".
In fact the experience of depression is feeling "stuck in present pain." The pain is NOW, the feeling of not being able to get out of it is NOW, and the stuck "I can't get out of this" feeling produces discouragement, frustration, sadness, very negative views of ourselves, and hopelessness--all emotions that seem to cause us to sink a little deeper every day.
I can help you get unstuck--contact me and let's begin to work to get you feeling more empowered, unstuck, moving forward again, and happier.

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.

Sadness is part of the human condition. The causes of it are often more complicated than it sometimes seems at face value. Sometimes we don't have any clue why we are sad or depressed. I am here to help you talk about these feelings in a safe, empathic environment.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It's important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.
