Chris Guthrey
Psychologist, PsyD
I assist individuals dealing with depression by helping them connect with their core values and sense of purpose. This process involves identifying personal beliefs and setting goals that resonate deeply, fostering a stronger sense of direction. Additionally, exploring one's past experiences and unconscious patterns can shed light on current emotional challenges, facilitating deeper self-understanding. I have found integrating these elements, along with mindfulness practices, empowers individuals to navigate depression more effectively and lead a more fulfilling life.

Symptoms of depression can manifest at any age. As a clinician, I offer adults a supportive opportunity to gain insight to their experience of depressive symptoms -- and to help each person develop unique strategies. It is often hard to have self-compassion for the ups and downs and to learn how to make meaningful changes to enhance coping. I collaborate with clients and as needed with psychiatrists.

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.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
According to research we have upwards of 70,000 thoughts a day. Most of them pass through us without so much as a “second thought”, but all are informing a sense of how we feel about ourselves, about the world we live in, about the abundance or the scarcity in our lives.
Our thoughts create our feelings and vice versa. For so many of us, “feelings” become an overwhelming, incapacitating part of our existence. What if you didn’t fear feelings? What if you had a clearer understanding of what thoughts had informed those feelings? These feelings and thoughts, which create anxiety, depression, worries, concerns or obsessions etc., can and must be dissected and understood. With insight and understanding comes relief. Situational pressures, breakups, job loss or confusion, a sense of purposelessness, become existential crisis.
In my work with individuals we closely examine the myriad of thoughts that pass through you daily. How do they make you feel? How do they inform your behaviors? It can occur in opposite as well. “I got a feeling he didn’t like me”. The feeling set up thought patterns of insecurity. Which comes first? How? Why? With empathy, insight and understanding, I work with clients to intervene in this process so that you are not just a firestorm of thoughts and feelings, but rather a mindful creation of what you want to feel. Making choices of what you want to think. What do you choose to believe about yourself? What is the narrative you have created for your life and is it accurate? Unpacking childhood memories and life experiences, understanding attachment complexities and desensitizing traumatic events that occur within our lives become primary objectives in the work. Processing in a more adaptive, healthy response with these relationships, traumas and experiences follow.
Together, with love, compassion and understanding, I gently help my clients discover how to live their best and fullest life, expressing the most authentic representation of self that one can be.

Veronica Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is a negative view of self, others, and the world. Many of my clients experience relief from their mild to moderate depression just by connecting with another person and revealing their thought process. I recognize that depression can take a great deal of effort and the benefits of that effort.

Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Depression can feel heavy and draining, making it hard to find motivation, joy, or a sense of meaning. You may feel disconnected from yourself or others, stuck in cycles of self-criticism or guilt, or exhausted no matter how much you rest. Over time, depression can shrink your world and make it difficult to believe that things can truly change.
In therapy with me, we’ll work to understand what’s contributing to your depression and gently reconnect you with yourself and your life. You’ll gain practical tools to help lift the weight day to day, while also working through the patterns, beliefs, and emotional pain beneath the surface. Together, we’ll move toward greater stability, self-compassion, and a life that feels more alive and aligned.

Yukiko K Hartman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LPCC, LMHC
We all get depressed sometime in our lives, which is normal, but if you are depressed for more than two weeks, then you might want to pay closer attention to it. It's because your depressed mood starts to interfere with your daily-life; often people experience a change of appetite or sleep, difficulty making decisions or concentrating. Are you experiencing any of these signs? When you are deeply depressed, you almost feel as if there was no way out and that you were stuck there forever... I know depression is powerful, but it is not true; there Are ways that help you get out of there! I have worked with many clients with depression and helped them out of the darkness to find a new pathway to live fully again. You don't need to be alone. Let's work together.

Depression tells you that nothing will help. Depression tells you to give up. Depression tells you to hide out. That no one will get it. Together, we will turn depression on its ugly head and take your life back, one tiny step at a time. A confident and experienced therapist like myself will sometimes hold your hand and other times give you a nudge you when you need it. I have seen real improvement in the toughest situations.
