Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
With depression, things can feel incredibly exhausting - and most steps to take towards getting out of a depressive episode can feel forced. I work with people to find realistic steps in decreasing the intensity of their depression, and find a path towards relief. This often includes a collaboration between building coping skills, and exploring the triggers to your depression. I have gotten feedback that my space provides a nice balance of processing and finding sustainable steps in reducing depression.

Gemstone Wellness, Inc.
Psychologist, PsyD, LCPC, LCSW, LPC
At Gemstone Wellness, depression is not approached as a flaw to be corrected, but as a meaningful experience that deserves to be understood in context. We recognize that depression often carries layers—emotional, relational, cultural, and physiological—and cannot be reduced to a single cause or quick solution. Instead of pushing for immediate change, therapy begins by creating space to gently explore what has led to the heaviness, disconnection, or loss of meaning you may be feeling.
Our work is grounded in trauma-informed, insight-oriented care. Depression can show up as exhaustion, numbness, hopelessness, or a sense that even simple tasks feel overwhelming. We move at a pace that respects your nervous system, helping you reconnect with yourself gradually rather than forcing momentum before it’s possible. Over time, this allows for increased emotional clarity, regulation, and a renewed sense of internal steadiness.
We do not rely on a rigid or one-size-fits-all model. Therapy may include a blend of relational work, cognitive and behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and deeper exploration of identity, loss, or past experiences—always tailored to your needs. Some sessions may focus on building energy and structure; others may hold space for grief, reflection, or simply being where you are.
Importantly, we understand that depression is often rooted in more than biology alone. Experiences such as trauma, chronic stress, identity-based marginalization, grief, or disconnection from purpose can all contribute. Therapy at Gemstone Wellness makes room for these deeper layers, helping you not only feel better, but understand yourself more fully.
The goal is not to force positivity, but to restore connection—connection to your emotions, your relationships, and your sense of meaning. As that connection strengthens, many clients begin to experience a return of energy, motivation, and hope—not as something imposed, but as something that emerges naturally from being more fully seen and understood.

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.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and difficult to put into words. In a culture that often encourages pushing feelings aside, it can be hard to make space for what’s really there. Together, we slow down and make room for your emotions by approaching them with curiosity rather than avoidance so they can be understood, processed, and begin to shift over time.

Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
Feeling down and blue is a normal, healthy, human experience. Having clinical depression is another thing and requires a trained professional to help you understand the difference. Basically, clinical depression is normal depression that goes to an extreme level and gets stuck there. Most people need assistance of one sort or the other to get back to normal functioning once they reach this point.
br>I will help you first determine where you are along the spectrum from feeling somewhere down and actually being stuck in depression. We'll then look at options available to you to help you feel better and begin enjoying life again.

Depression can feel like a disconnection from yourself, others, and the parts of life that once felt meaningful. I support clients in gently exploring what sits beneath feelings of sadness, numbness, or low motivation while also working to reduce the heaviness that can make daily life feel difficult. In our work together, we focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and reconnecting with a sense of purpose and self-compassion. My goal is to help you feel less alone in what you’re experiencing and to support you in gradually rebuilding energy, hope, and emotional balance.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing depression by helping them understand patterns such as low motivation, withdrawal, and negative self-talk that can keep them feeling stuck. Depression can impact mood, energy, relationships, and your sense of purpose. In therapy, we focus on building small, meaningful changes in daily life while also addressing the thoughts and beliefs that contribute to feeling hopeless or disconnected. I use CBT-based strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and support clients in re-engaging with activities and values that bring a greater sense of purpose and direction.
