Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
There's feeling depressed and then there's DEPRESSION. While neither is fun, it is important to get a proper diagnosis so treatment can begin and a resolution to the Major Depressive Episode can happen. Interventions for chronic, low grade depression are different than for acute, Major Depressive Episodes. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon to have both! Behavioral activation is an important CBT intervention to start chipping away at the block of ice that is MDD.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and depressive symptoms. You identity shouldn't be surrounded by your mental health state and I often work with clients to establish and work towards a new identity and lifestyle that focuses on freedom from their anxiety and depression. My style often is a mix of CBT or skill based therapy and a person-centered approach focusing on supporting you where you are at currently. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious and depressive thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
Depression can leave you feeling discouraged, isolated, and disconnected from the life you once enjoyed. From an Adlerian perspective, counseling is about more than reducing symptoms—it's about restoring hope, purpose, and a renewed sense of belonging. Together, we'll explore the life experiences, beliefs, and patterns that may be contributing to your depression while identifying your strengths and building the courage to move forward. My goal is to provide a compassionate, encouraging environment where you can rediscover meaning, strengthen relationships, and create lasting emotional well-being.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Depression can feel lonely and make daily tasks feel difficult to approach or complete. Symptoms of major depression may include sadness and withdrawal, irritability, loss of enjoyment, and changes with concentration, appetite and sleep. I help clients explore the challenges they are facing, identify goals, and develop a plan to reduce how depression impacts daily functioning.

Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Having treated hundreds of people struggling with depression and major depressive disorder, I would offer that I am an expert in helping roll back depression symptoms. I began my career as an art therapist in an outpatient center and the majority of my clients were young adults and teens with depression symptoms. A cornerstone of my graduate work was to use art therapy to help people with depression to express themselves in art media. Now as a seasoned experienced therapist, I have been educated with dozens of techniques to help eliminate feelings and symptoms of depression.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I approach depression initially by exploring your life circumstances and/or the thoughts going through your head that are trigging your mood. There are times when we may want to look at the old tape recordings playing through your head triggering depression. Once I have an idea of what is fueling your depression then we can target that. I teach your how to use thought strategies and behavior strategies to reduce depression and improve your mood. My goal is to teach you several tools so that in any given situation, you have a tool to use.

Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to gently break through the isolation of depression and rebuild a sense of purpose, vitality, and hope.
Anne’s integrative approach goes beyond standard talk therapy. By blending evidence-based depression protocols with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she gives clients alternative ways to process deep-seated emotions, especially when it feels impossible to put them into words. Whether your depression is tied to a difficult life transition, chronic illness, trauma, grief, or the unique hormonal and emotional shifts of the perinatal and postpartum journey, Anne is dedicated to helping you develop manageable, everyday coping strategies to reconnect with yourself and your life.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Everything takes more effort than it should. Getting out of bed. Returning texts. Caring about things you used to care about. From the outside your life might look fine, but inside you're running on empty and wondering when you started feeling so disconnected from yourself. Depression lies to you. It tells you nothing will help, that you've always been this way, that you're a burden for even talking about it. We know how to work with depression, how to help you find your way back to yourself without pretending it's as simple as thinking positive thoughts. This is slow, honest work, and we'll be with you for it. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
A common feature of depression is a pervasive sense of hopelessness, which aims to protect depressed individuals from working toward change, failing, and then being disappointed. My initial goal when working with depressed clients is to foster a sense of hope and a belief in their ability to change, such that clients will feel empowered to pursue their goals and live their lives to the fullest extent.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
While depression isn't my primary focus a recent meta-analysis (study combining many studies) proved that focusing on treating worry and anxiety relieves depression as much as targeting it directly. My unique and simple approach to cognitive therapy for anxiety applies equally well to depression. Nonetheless, when we used relaxation only, to target worry and anxiety, it lifted depression as much as those groups who used cognitive therapy. However, if you are so depressed that you have recently contemplated suicide, I suggest you see someone in a group practice or someone who is willing to take emergency calls 24/7 because I do not do that.

When families are in addictive situations with someone they love, they are generally feeling depressed and helpless. And when an addict thinks about letting go of an addictive behaviour, they feel depressed and hopeless. This is all addressed in the therapy with Love With Boundaries Addiction Family Counselling.
