Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Mood disorders, including major depressive disorder, impact a significant portion of the adult population. Sometimes stressful life events contribute to depression and other times it's a longstanding illness without a clear direct cause. We will create a plan for managing the thoughts and behaviors mitigating your symptoms.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression doesn't always look like sadness. Sometimes it's numbness where feelings used to be, a fog that makes small tasks enormous, or going through the motions of a life that no longer feels like yours. And sometimes it has a trigger no one acknowledges like a loss, a birth, infertility, a diagnosis, or a hormonal shift, that can make you feel stuck. You don't have to stay here. Using CBT, ACT, and narrative work, we'll untangle the thoughts that keep you low, reconnect you with what matters, and rebuild your days at a pace that respects where you're starting from. Depression is treatable, including yours.

Be Authentic Family Therapy Services, Inc. Michele Putini, Director
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
You are not alone, even if you feel like it right now. If you feel like you don't have the energy to do what you need to do and don't really have the desire either, we can help you find your way back. If there is one thing you can do it would be to ask for help. I know that it takes a massive amount of courage to ask for help but I know from personal experience, it does help. We will meet you where you are and help you face the challenges you have and help you manage your symptoms with some practical coping strategies, a safe compassion filled environment for you to process your feelings and the opportunity to learn and discover the barriers that prevent you from wellness and from being your most authentic self . I know it may feel like you will never feel better again but it is not true. Feelings last a very short time (about 20 minutes) They change and when we learn to lean into them and not avoid them, we learn that we can manage sadness, loneliness, even despair. It is not easy to do but it is possible. If you can trust in the process, ask for help and attend treatment, it will get better. We can help walk alongside you and help you heal. We encourage you to come exactly as you are right now. We are here to help. Take the first step and make an appointment. We can sit with your suffering and help you on to the path of healing.

Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
If life has no joy, if life feels lonely, or if life seems meaningless, then we would say you feel depressed. Depression is more than a mindset, but it has the power to grip your mind and body in fear and shame. I take a holistic approach to depression. We will explore the power of the body to help the mind while also helping the mind support the body. It is a ying-yang relationship. I am now offering Virtual Reality therapy to help with depressive symptoms.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Depression is often less about brain chemistry and more about a nervous system that has been through too much and learned to shut down. The flatness, the fog, the inability to feel much of anything — these are not character flaws or permanent states. They are often the body's last-resort response to pain that hasn't had a place to go.
I work with depression from a trauma-informed lens, treating the root rather than just the symptoms — using EMDR, Flash Technique, and when appropriate ketamine-assisted EMDR to help a system that has gone quiet begin to come back online. Skills and support along the way, and intensives available for those ready to move through it more deeply.
You may have been living like this for so long it feels like just who you are. Let's find out who you are when you're not carrying all of this.

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.
