Bruce Clark
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Depression can make everything feel heavier; maybe motivation fades, joy feels impossible, and even small tasks can seem overwhelming. You might feel stuck in self-criticism or like you’re just going through the motions. I offer therapy that meets you with warmth, curiosity, and respect, helping you understand what’s underneath the sadness and gently reconnect with purpose, energy, and hope.

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.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Depression is a common word now but there's so much to it. You may feel hopeless and sad, scared, gloomy, and more. Maybe there is stigma in your culture or family. Maybe you have been told that depression is a "choice." It isn't your fault. I am here to help you take steps to manage your depression. But you are enough. And you do not need to be "fixed."

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Everything takes more effort than it should. Getting out of bed. Returning texts. Caring about things you used to care about. From the outside your life might look fine, but inside you're running on empty and wondering when you started feeling so disconnected from yourself. Depression lies to you. It tells you nothing will help, that you've always been this way, that you're a burden for even talking about it. We know how to work with depression, how to help you find your way back to yourself without pretending it's as simple as thinking positive thoughts. This is slow, honest work, and we'll be with you for it. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

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.

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.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Are you a high-functioning, self-reliant woman who cycles through periods of emotional pain that you keep hidden from others? Perfectly hidden depression is a term for appearing successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing severe emotional pain. Coined by psychologist Dr. Margaret Rutherford, perfectly hidden depression hides behind anxious perfectionism that is trying to compensate for unhealed shame and a fear of emotional vulnerability. I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.

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.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression sometimes may feel like a mud pile, that we struggle to escape from. You may be experiencing sadness, loss of appetite, hopelessness, or loss of interest in activities or social interactions. You may struggle to find the motivation to change but you know you can benefit from a little transformation. Depression is a presenting symptom, it is not the root of the issue. Discovering and treating the root of the issue, so the symptom would not occur or repeat again is my goal as your therapist.
