Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.
I understand the social stigmas that come with the label of being depressed and thus aim to help clients sort out their environmental, biological, and circumstantial factors while offering support and care through a very dark time in their lives.
If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today for a free consultation.

Depression: Navigating the Deep Stillness
From Systemic Shutdown to Vitality
Depression is often described as "sadness," but for many, it feels more like a shut down—a heavy, gray fog that disconnects you from your vitality, your relationships, and your sense of self. It is a state of chronic burnout where the nervous system has opted for "freeze" because "fight or flight" no longer feels possible. In my practice, we approach depression with radical curiosity, looking for the light that still exists beneath the weight.
Understanding the Layers of the "Fog"
Depression is rarely a solo traveler; it is influenced by the systems we live in and the attachments we hold. We explore:
The Weight of the Mask: Addressing the exhaustion of "performing" wellness while feeling a profound internal overwhelm.
Systemic Despair: Using Systems Theory to acknowledge how social inequities, power imbalances, and environmental stressors contribute to a sense of hopelessness.
The Attachment Gap: Identifying the "emotional isolation" that often fuels depressive cycles, even when you are surrounded by people.
A Multidimensional Path to Recovery
With over 20 years of experience, I integrate deep-reaching modalities to help you gently re-engage with life:
EMDR for the "Core Beliefs": We use EMDR to target the "stuck" memories and negative self-narratives—like "I am a burden" or "It will never get better"—that keep the depressive cycle in motion.
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "depressed part" of your system. Often, this part is trying to protect you from further pain by keeping you small and still. We work to build safety so this part can finally rest.
Nutrition-Informed Therapy: We look at the "gut-brain axis" and how physical nourishment and lifestyle rhythms impact your neurochemistry and mood.
Holding the Hope Until You Can
Whether you are experiencing a "situational dip" due to a life transition or have struggled with a "persistent low" for years, I provide a courageous space to do the heavy lifting. My goal is not just the absence of symptoms, but the presence of connection, agency, and joy.

Jenn Zatopek
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDR
I'm trained in DBT which is cognitive behavioral skills + mindfulness, but it's also fantastic life skills training, and really helps with depression reduction. Together I'll teach you the necessary skills to help accept yourself, find ways to settle your nervous system when you're triggered, develop a different relationship to your emotions, and ask for what you want in relationships, which will help create a positive change for your future. These skills will help get you out of your funk so you can feel good again.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Depression is so painful and can be so debilitating. It takes the joy out of life, the sleep out of our nights, and the hope out of our future. I help my clients better both identify and work through the roots to their depression. I incorporate CBT techniques, psychodynamic work, and EMDR therapy. I apply the approaches that are most effective with the presenting concerns.

Depression
Heather Champion
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Court Mediator
Depression can be such a difficult thing to understand and to accept when we are experiencing it. We want so badly to feel better that we get angry at ourselves for the lack of motivation and fatigue that gets in the way of being as productive as we would like to be. Everyone around seems okay and few of the people around seem to understand that these barriers are not just in my head. Working through depression, accepting what it is doing and taking steps to begin to alleviate the symptoms is a hard step to take, but we can take them together.

Depression
Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Depression has a way of making everything feel distant, including the parts of yourself that used to feel most alive. If you've tried therapy before and found yourself gaining insight without actually feeling better, you're not alone, and it's not a reflection of how hard you're trying. I'm Sarah, and I specialize in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy for people whose depression has felt stuck, heavy, or resistant to traditional approaches. KAP works differently than talk therapy. It creates real neurological space for new patterns to form, especially when combined with thoughtful preparation and integration. I work especially with queer, neurodivergent, and non-monogamous folks whose depression is tangled up with years of navigating spaces that didn't fully see them. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself!

Inspirational couples & relationship counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I chose to treat depression because within the scope of dysfunctional relationship depression is one of the symptoms that immensely affect the relationship. Often depression tends to make people feel hopeless and helpless and it impacts our mind in a severe negative way. Together we will try and remove these barriers.

Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
Depression can feel like moving through life with a weight you can’t put down. Even simple things — getting out of bed, making decisions, finding motivation — can feel overwhelming. Many of my clients push themselves to achieve and hold everything together on the outside, but inside they feel empty, numb, or deeply tired. In therapy, we slow down and explore not just the symptoms, but the hidden roots of your pain. Over time, you can begin to feel lighter, more connected to yourself, and able to experience real joy again.

Depression
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Depression can feel like a dense, dark, and heavy blanket that weighs us down, sucks the joy out of life, impairs concentration and focus, leads us to question why we are living and if the hardship is worth it, makes us feel stuck, and confuses our brains into believing that we are worthless and that the negative feelings will last forever. Therapy can be essential in reducing symptoms, shifting the "stories" we tell ourselves about ourselves, more effectively coping with loss and upset, learning self-care, managing and healing from trauma, and shifting perspective so that we can feel better and develop lasting changes.
