Rachel Honaker, Depth Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Working through depression is challenging. It's a delicate balance of learning kindness towards yourself, being gentle when things are hard, and challenging yourself to make meaningful change. With depression, it takes small steps, but they accumulate! I'm here to help keep track and celebrate the change and validate when making a change is too much for right now. An important part of change is acknowledging what has come before. We will explore your experiences and feelings to make connections that can help us find the way towards health and well-being.

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.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
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.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Depression can feel like a heaviness that’s hard to shake—low mood, loss of interest, fatigue, or a sense of disconnection from yourself and others. In therapy, we take the time to understand what’s beneath these experiences rather than pushing them aside. By exploring patterns, emotions, and the context around them, our work can help you reconnect with yourself, find more steadiness, and gradually re-engage with life in a way that feels more meaningful and sustainable.
