New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Depression can feel heavy and isolating—draining your energy, dulling your joy, and making even simple tasks feel overwhelming. Often, it is connected to unresolved grief, trauma, chronic stress, or deeply rooted beliefs of hopelessness or inadequacy. In therapy, we compassionately explore the underlying causes of your depression while building practical tools to restore motivation, emotional balance, and hope. Through evidence-based care and Christ-centered support, you’ll have a safe space to process your pain, reconnect with purpose, and move toward renewed strength and light.

Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Are your thoughts making you miserable? For some people, beginning to notice their thoughts is a revelation, and when they realize that misery is directly connected with what they are thinking, and how much credence they are giving the thoughts, and what the thoughts are, they find themselves empowered against depression, often for the first time in their lives.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Rather than seeing depression as merely a biochemical disfunction or mindset problem, I aim to explore how depression functions in the body and soul. From a somatic (body-centered) perspective, depression can be understood as freeze state that inhibits expression. From a soul-centered perspective, depression can be a valuable signpost that tells us that something needs to be seen and heard so that a more aligned and full life can be lived. Together we will journey to discover how depression can transform into purposeful expression.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Depression is often a symptom of unresolved feelings. It can be a reaction to anxiety that has exhausted itself, or anger turned inward. Some people are perfectionistic to a fault and constantly beat up on themselves for failing to attain an impossible standard of living. As a psychodynamic clinician, I help depressed people find the roots of their depression, rather than just addressing the symptoms.

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.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
Depression is almost always rooted in the past -- thinking about the past, obsessing about the past, regretting the past. Learning how to live in the moment, in the here and now, can reduce most depression. I'm a strong believer that exercise also can play a significant role in reducing the severity and frequency of depressive episodes. Lifestyle management is crucial for success in this area.

Ryan Muldoon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For depression, many therapists recommend quickly getting into action with exercise, meditation, socializing, etc. These are certainly effective! But sometimes it's best to honor your depression. It’s possible that healing may begin by doing things society unfairly shames us for, like sleeping in, closing the curtain, or indulging in that pint of ice cream. My clients have reported feeling instant relief from the shame that’s lifted when they hear this. And from there, the healing continues.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Depression is largely caused by isolation. The more connections you have and the more activities you do, the less depression symptoms you have. Low energy is a hallmark of depression and typically we don't have the energy to do the above, so we get into a negative spiral. Therapy can provide you with the support and encouragement you need so you can do the unnatural things we all need to do to stay out of that darkness. Some people try medication and if they want to, I can work closely with the doctor to monitor the effects of medication.

Karen Petren
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
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. Life does get better.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is not a weakness, it is often the weight of unprocessed pain, loss, or chronic stress. Sometimes it is the body's way of shutting down after being in survival mode for too long. Together, we approach depression with compassion, curiosity, and nervous system awareness. Our work focuses on gently reconnecting you to your emotions and your sense of meaning.

Jean-Marie Bottequin
Life Coach, WAPP
Depression is the ability to react to conflicts with deep emotionality.
I research the causes, what is the basic problem, with different questionnaires. We let the past be the past and rebuild the soul.

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.

Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT
There is beauty in showing up for yourself, and bravery in turning towards struggle. When we deny our struggle, we deny a part of us that is longing to be seen.
