Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Depression can make it extremely difficult to move through the world. Maybe you are feeling down, questioning your worth, or struggling to find pleasure in things you usually enjoy. When people are depressed, it can be extremely difficult to engage in the world. Finding a therapist who specializes in treating depression is an important step that can help you to start re-engaging. I provide a supportive space to process your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we can work on helping you identify small steps you can take to gradually increase your energy and motivation over time. We can also focus on helping you to identify and challenge distorted ways of thinking that are likely worsening your depression. You don't have to stay stuck and isolated. I would be honored to help you work through this difficult season.

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.

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I approach depression by helping clients reconnect with meaning, values, and a sense of agency, rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction. Our work blends emotional processing with practical, values-aligned action to gently restore momentum, self-trust, and engagement with life. Therapy with a client experiencing depression is collaborative, paced, and centered on the whole person, not just the depression.

Mind Body Connections

If you are struggling with depression we will address this from a holistic perspective. We will help you determine if coping skills alone can manage the symptoms or if a consultation with an MD is more warranted. If your depression is severe then we will guide you to a higher level of care.

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.

Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Depression can feel like a silent, heavy weight—but having someone who can hold space and hope for you can be profoundly healing. I combine insight therapy, journaling, light therapy, and other supportive practices to help my clients gently explore their inner world, process emotions, and find moments of relief and renewed hope.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views depression not as a permanent flaw, but as a complex emotional state often linked to "stuck" grief, lost purpose, or silenced parts of the self.
Depression can feel like a heavy fog that disconnects you from your vitality and sense of meaning. With over 35 years of expertise, Michael looks beyond the surface symptoms of fatigue and low mood to explore the deeper relational and developmental roots of this "stuckness." Often, depression is a signal of unresolved loss or internal conflicts that have been pushed out of conscious awareness. By working within a psychodynamic and Jungian framework, he helps you reconnect with your authentic self and rediscover purpose, moving from a state of mere survival toward a life that feels genuinely lived.

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. For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian based support to offer hope, grounding, and meaning during difficult seasons. You don’t have to navigate depression alone healing is possible, and support is here.

Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression is a dark, crushing weight. When we’re lost in the darkness it’s difficult to find the light or even trust that it’s there. But it is. The darkness is scary for sure, and yet even depression is trying to help us in some way, like for example, trying to keep us safe. It doesn’t realize we don’t need protection in that way or to that degree. We will explore where and why these thoughts and feelings are stuck, and challenge, rework and update them to bring more light into your life.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships that are not meeting our needs, the stressors of life, and feeling stuck or unsatisfied professionally can lead to prolonged feelings of sadness. Perhaps your childhood experiences did not give you the opportunity to develop a strong sense of who you are or that you matter. Therapy can help you regulate the intensity of depression and make a pivot in how you respond to its presence, making way for less struggle and more opportunities for choosing how you want to live.
