Theo Kuczek
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
Depression literally means "De-Pressed" like something external is pressing on you and leaving you unable to function the way you want. Understanding the nuances of what may be de-pressing you brings light to how it may be able to shift. There is hope.

Depression has different ways of being approached. Depression and Alexithymia can be what is found suppressed with or without anxiety and other co-occurring expressions. We can offer parts work, functional support, distance TCM integration, application of an intersectional model to address ongoing depression from abusive/oppressive impacts or stored impacts...Sometimes the co-occuring condition needs care and compassionate meeting, e.g. in cases of chronic health challenges. Sometimes a more creative approach brings folks back on line from depression. Since our focus is CPTSD care, we often work with depression from a parts perspective for the last 14 years.

Major life stressors often trigger flare-ups of mental health challenges.
Are you surrounded by fears of catching COVID-19, disconnected from friends, or working a remote job you don't love?

Maybe you're feeling guilty for procrastinating? Finding it tough to relax or sleep restfully?
Is your inner critic getting louder? Do you keep wondering if you're doing enough, are loved enough, or will ever be good enough?
What if the links between trauma and achievement are playing out for you?
Life is tough, and so are you.

Depression
Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Depression can show up in subtle ways for high-functioning people. You may continue leading, creating, or meeting responsibilities while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. For founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals, depression often develops alongside chronic stress, burnout, and pressure to keep performing. Through trauma-informed therapy, narrative work, and nervous system regulation, we address the deeper patterns contributing to depression so you can reconnect with meaning, emotional steadiness, and a greater sense of vitality.

Dr. Lois Nightingale
Psychologist, MA, Ph.D.
I have worked with clients struggling with Clinical Depression since 1983. Depression can be devastation, not only to the client, but to their entire family. Research indicates that a combination of counseling and medication can help address Major Depression. I have written a book on Postpartum Depression titled: "Overcoming Postpartum Depression a Doctor's Own Story" available on Sound Cloud. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, in partnership with Journey Clinical for eligible clients.

Depression
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Depression can quietly reshape how one experiencex time, meaning, and connection, dulling what once felt so vibrant. In psychoanalytic work, we listen closely to what the depression may be holding, including unspoken losses, internal conflicts, and ways of relating to yourself that developed long ago. As these inner landscapes are explored, many people find a gradual reawakening of vitality, depth, and a sense of purpose that feels earned rather than forced.

Depression is a complicated experience that can be difficult to explain to those who haven't ever experienced it. Therapy will help to hold all the heaviness. I believe in taking things day by day and praising those small wins you will accomplish.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a human is hard. Who doesn't get depressed now and again? But what if it is more than that? You've been feeling a little down, then the day comes when you just cannot get out of bed, nothing sounds fun (not even the things that usually do), and you just can't quite get yourself to make that call or take that walk, even though you know it might help you to feel better. Then the day stretches to two days, then three, and it starts to feel like you will never feel "normal" again. These feelings are intense, and painful, and you do not have to suffer them alone. Call or email me today.

Depression
David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Pain and sadness about our past or hopelessness about our future is normal at times. Rumination is like watching the same clip of a mistake over and over and over, going beyond learning from our past into shaming ourselves. I work extensively with shame, which is often related to depression, disavowing you from shame narratives that have likely been present for many years.

Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work together to reframe unhelpful thinking, develop healthier coping strategies, and build emotional resilience. Through structured and collaborative sessions, my goal is to empower you to regain control of your mood and behavior, enabling you to make lasting changes and live life according to your values.

Depression
Cindy Lee Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression, low mood, lack of motivation, and emotional numbness. Depression doesn’t always look like sadness. It can show up as feeling disconnected, exhausted, unmotivated, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to shift, even when you understand them intellectually.
My approach goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) to address the underlying causes of depression, including unresolved trauma, loss, and long-standing relational patterns. These therapies work at the level of the brain and nervous system to help create meaningful, lasting change rather than short-term relief.
I also integrate nervous system regulation and attachment-focused work, which can be especially helpful if you tend to withdraw, shut down emotionally, or feel disconnected from yourself or others. Therapy is paced carefully to support engagement without overwhelm, particularly when motivation and energy are low.
Many clients come in feeling stuck or discouraged after trying to “push through” depression on their own. Through this work, clients often experience increased energy, improved mood, and a stronger sense of connection to themselves and their lives.

Depression
Arielle Grossman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is the invisible baggage that often is unseen but deeply felt. I believe that just because you have depression, doesn't mean your life can't be full of meaning and love. Working actively on finding that inner strength within you, we will begin to work on making healthier choices, stop negative thoughts and become more aware of the positive in your life or begin to create those moments together that feel connective to you.
