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.

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.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I know depression. I know its pain. I know the feeling of desperation and feeling totally disempowered and frightened that often comes with depression.
I became a clinical psychologist precisely because I wanted to learn how to help people who suffer with depression as I have in the past. It is black and it is lonely. But it does not have to be allowed to take over your life. You CAN take your life back by taking your mood back. I can show you how to begin to do it.
People too frequently say "I am depressed" when what they really mean is "I feel sad". "Depression" is a clinical disorder, and it is only appropriate to say someone is "depressed" if they meet all the criteria for depression.
Assessments of depression will measure the clinical symptoms of depression but what does it FEEL like on a daily basis? When you feel depressed, you are not thinking about the clinical symptoms, you are thinking and feeling more along the lines of just being "stuck".
In fact the experience of depression is feeling "stuck in present pain." The pain is NOW, the feeling of not being able to get out of it is NOW, and the stuck "I can't get out of this" feeling produces discouragement, frustration, sadness, very negative views of ourselves, and hopelessness--all emotions that seem to cause us to sink a little deeper every day.
I can help you get unstuck--contact me and let's begin to work to get you feeling more empowered, unstuck, moving forward again, and happier.

Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in treating depression, helping individuals navigate the profound weight of low mood, loss of interest, and feelings of hopelessness through a compassionate, evidence-based lens.

Furthermore, my extensive training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) allows me to go beyond traditional talk therapy by equipping you with a practical, skills-based toolkit for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Together, we will actively work to replace depressive patterns with intentional strategies, rebuilding your engagement with life and restoring a sense of purpose and well-being.

Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
Feeling down and blue is a normal, healthy, human experience. Having clinical depression is another thing and requires a trained professional to help you understand the difference. Basically, clinical depression is normal depression that goes to an extreme level and gets stuck there. Most people need assistance of one sort or the other to get back to normal functioning once they reach this point.
br>I will help you first determine where you are along the spectrum from feeling somewhere down and actually being stuck in depression. We'll then look at options available to you to help you feel better and begin enjoying life again.
