KT Glusac
Counselor/Therapist, AMFT, APCC
I bring a trauma-informed, depth-oriented approach to supporting clients living with depression. I offer ketamine-assisted therapy (KAT), which can be a powerful complement to talk therapy, as it helps clients access altered states of consciousness that often provide relief from entrenched depressive symptoms. In these expanded states, many people experience new insights, a softening of inner barriers, and the possibility of reconnecting with meaning, vitality, and self-compassion.

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.

Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression may be described as feeling sad, melancholy, dismal, unhappy, miserable, or down. Many individuals may feel periodic sadness during a distressing situation or transition. Clinical depression is a mood disorder in which feelings of sadness, loss, anger, or frustration affect one’s life for a couple of weeks or longer. Anyone can develop depression, even kids. Clinical depression tends to manifest differently in children and adolescents than in adults.
Depression can appear as anger, irritation and discouragement, rather than feelings of sadness.
If depression is very severe, there may also be psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions.
Treatment for depression may include psychotherapy and/or medication. Either way, seek assistance from a professional psychologist immediately if you or someone you know may be suffering from depression. Hope is available.

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.

Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Depression in the context of a challenging family member makes so much sense. This is different from the kind of depression that is organic and arises out of nowhere. Instead, this is a normal response to an abnormal situation. When you feel chronically stressed, overwhelmed, and stuck, your brain tries to protect you, kind of like a rolly-poly bug. You pull inward, lose interest in activities, need more sleep, and feel blah because your brain is conserving energy until you can find a solution. As you discover new ways to cope and feel less fear and guilt about taking care of your own needs, you may find your energy, enthusiasm, lightness, and joy gradually return.

Dr. Cristal Lopez
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families. I’m committed to guiding you, your child, or family to a more connected and fulfilling life. Invest in yourself!

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many people experience a deep, persistent depression with no apparent reason or when they think about global warming, war, injustice, or the inevitability of death—and you’re not alone in feeling weighed down by that awareness. Highly thoughtful, gifted, or intellectually curious people are especially vulnerable to this kind of existential heaviness. I help clients reconnect with meaning, steadiness, and small moments of joy without losing the depth and clarity that make their perspective so unique.

Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression can make life feel heavy—like you’re moving through the day with less energy, less hope, and less connection to yourself or others. It isn’t just sadness; depression can also involve numbness, shame, self-criticism, disconnection, and feeling stuck. Therapy can help you feel less alone, understand what you’re carrying, and begin to reconnect with motivation and meaning. Together, we work to understand the deeper emotional roots of depression and the patterns that keep it going, so you can build a more compassionate relationship with yourself and create lasting change.

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.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I work with adults and parents who are experiencing depression, low mood, or a loss of motivation and connection in their lives. Depression can often feel isolating and overwhelming, affecting energy, relationships, self-esteem, and the ability to engage in daily life. In therapy, we create a supportive space to explore the underlying experiences, patterns, and stressors that may be contributing to these feelings.
My approach integrates relational therapy, attachment-based work, and neuroscience-informed practices to help clients better understand both the emotional and nervous system components of depression. Together, we focus on building insight, strengthening emotional regulation, and reconnecting clients with a sense of meaning, resilience, and connection in their lives.
