Marnie Kahn
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, HeartMath Certified Practitioner
Depression is a crippling disorder that does not discriminate. The loss of light, joy and hope creates a darkness that can seem like their is no way out of. When I work with individuals who are suffering with depression, I help them to discover the light that is within them that has been covered up by the difficulties of life and from the external searching for happiness. I help them to shift from searching outside of themselves to opening to what is on the inside.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often impact how clients have learned to operate and survive in relationships. Many have learned to defer to others, feeling like a burden if they consider and try to communicate their needs or limits. These folks have learned to betray themselves in order to preserve their attachments, often leading to resentment, burnout and deep depression.

Karen J. Osterle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSSA, LICSW
Depression--particularly anxious depression--can feel so hopeless and crazy-making. In many instances, depression results from the protective mechanisms failing to work for us, like they used to. This work invites you to come forward in the spirit of 100% honesty, awareness, and openness to engage the healthier aspects of your will and arrive at acceptance of a fuller range of your emotional self-expression. When we are in a better, more authentic relationship with ourselves, we free up a lot of inadvertently squandered or eddying energy in order to reengage with our goals once again.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression often feels like being weighed down by hopelessness or self-criticism. My work integrates IFS to uncover the shame and pain beneath these feelings, combined with approaches like meditation/mindfulness, somatic sensing, and interpersonal neurobiology, and existential therapies to support healing and re-engagement with life. I frequently work alongside prescribers for medication support and use thorough differential diagnosis to distinguish depression from trauma responses, bipolar disorder, or grief.

Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Depression can show up in subtle ways for high-functioning people. You may continue leading, creating, or meeting responsibilities while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. For founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals, depression often develops alongside chronic stress, burnout, and pressure to keep performing. Through trauma-informed therapy, narrative work, and nervous system regulation, we address the deeper patterns contributing to depression so you can reconnect with meaning, emotional steadiness, and a greater sense of vitality.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Depression can feel like walking through mud—everything takes more effort, joy feels out of reach, and even small tasks can seem overwhelming. Whether you're feeling numb, hopeless, exhausted, or just not like yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to go through it without support.
With nearly 20 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help people navigate depression using evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based strategies, along with Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work, and compassion-focused therapy. We’ll work together to gently uncover what’s underneath the heaviness, and find ways to reconnect you with purpose, meaning, and a sense of possibility.
You don’t have to pretend you’re fine here. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where your experience is honored, your story matters, and even small wins are worth celebrating. And yes, we might even find a few moments to laugh—because even in dark times, light still gets in.
If you're tired of feeling stuck, let’s talk. There’s a way forward, and I’d be honored to help you find it.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression can be heavy, overwhelming, and isolating. It can be short-term or it may be something that feels ever-present. In our work together, we can walk through your experiences with depression, while working to identifying factors that may be contributing to how you're feeling, as well as supports and resources that can help you to begin to feel unstuck. With depression, self-compassion is key: you didn't choose this and you didn't make this happen. Together, we can take the steps at your pace to help you take the steps that are meaningful to you.
