What an honor it is to be a supportive companion on your path to deeper wellness!

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting patients experiencing depression, I offer a compassionate and empathetic space for them to explore their feelings and experiences. Through therapy, we work together to identify the underlying factors contributing to their depression, which may include biological, psychological, and social factors. I provide evidence-based techniques and strategies to help manage their symptoms, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and lifestyle modifications. Additionally, I assist in developing coping skills, building resilience, and fostering social support networks. My goal is to empower patients to overcome depression, regain a sense of hope and purpose, and live fulfilling lives.

Paulina Birgiolaite
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CMNCS
Depression can make everything feel heavier—your thoughts, your energy, even simple daily tasks. You might feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. Therapy provides a space to begin rebuilding momentum, reconnecting with yourself, and finding small, meaningful ways to move toward feeling better.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
When you are living with depression, even the smallest daily tasks can feel like a heavy uphill climb. Anne provides a warm, non-judgmental, and deeply collaborative space to help you safely explore those feelings of exhaustion, disconnect, and low self-esteem. 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.

Depression can make everything feel incredibly heavy—even simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and things you once enjoyed might not feel the same anymore (often known as anhedonia).

Her approach is warm, highly personalized, and grounded in what research tells us really works.

Online Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & Life Transitions -AZ, IL, OH
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC
Depression can make even the simplest parts of life feel heavy getting out of bed, staying focused, or feeling connected to the people you love. I provide a warm, steady, and non‑judgmental space to help you understand what’s beneath the sadness, numbness, or exhaustion you’ve been carrying. Using evidence‑based approaches like CBT and mindfulness based strategies, we work together to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, rebuild motivation, and strengthen emotional resilience.
