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 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.

Rinat Kass
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Low mood is not something that can be fixed overnight. It takes time and work to figure out the best way to deal with it. In our work together, we will work to uncover likely causes of your low mood and find out whether they are circumstantial or whether they stem from something deeper. We will work together to help you manage the unpleasant emotions as well as take meaningful steps to finding joy and meaning in your life.

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
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.

Depression
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.

Kristin Robert

I work with depression by exploring how emotional exhaustion, loss, and long-standing patterns of disconnection have shaped a person’s inner world. Therapy supports understanding these experiences while helping clients reconnect with meaning, agency, and steadier engagement with daily life.

Depression
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.

Depression
Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
Depression feels overwhelming and affects how someone thinks about everything, often causing a since of hopelessness and helplessness. It can impact an individuals ability to work and interpersonal relationships. Usually there is no clear source of the mood shift which adds to the difficulty coming out of it. Although it is sometimes hard to imagine feeling better, treatment can be very helpful.
