I am passionate about working with anyone who has experienced depression or anxiety and who wants to take a deeper look at how these painful thoughts and feelings developed, and how they shape their daily lives.

Depression
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Depression can feel like a dense, dark, and heavy blanket that weighs us down, sucks the joy out of life, impairs concentration and focus, leads us to question why we are living and if the hardship is worth it, makes us feel stuck, and confuses our brains into believing that we are worthless and that the negative feelings will last forever. Therapy can be essential in reducing symptoms, shifting the "stories" we tell ourselves about ourselves, more effectively coping with loss and upset, learning self-care, managing and healing from trauma, and shifting perspective so that we can feel better and develop lasting changes.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, aren't enjoying life, or feel down, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats mood and related issues typically using Behavioral Activation and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Michelle Peacock

Depression, at a minimum, involves feeling sad and loosing interest in things and activities once found pleasurable. Depression impacts eating, sleeping, thought processes, and often negatively impacts self esteem, relationships, and work/school functioning. CBT is very effective in treating depression.

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.

Depression
Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has proved revolutionary for me and many clients I have worked with on reshaping our relationship to sadness and despair from one of trying to avoid or control it OR be overwhelmed and drowned by it to one of acceptance and management of it. This latter way of relating to any unpleasant thought or feeling allows us to continue to thrive and be present for life even while we are experiencing it.

Depression
Reginald K. Riggins
Psychologist, PhD
Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions diagnosed. In my experience, cognitive-behavioral therapy has been the most effective approach to treating depression symptoms. This would entail address thinking errors, altering maladaptive behaviors and increases one's level of mindfulness to reduce depression symptoms.

Mariko Roberts
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCPC
Depression is more than just sadness — it can quietly erode your motivation, strain your relationships, and make even small tasks feel impossible. I help clients move beyond simply surviving to understanding the patterns driving their depression and building real tools for lasting emotional balance. My goal is to help you reclaim a sense of hope, clarity, and to start feeling like yourself again.
