Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel heavy. You might feel numb, hopeless, disconnected, or just not like yourself. It’s more than sadness — it’s a struggle that affects your energy, sleep, relationships, and self-worth.
In therapy, we’ll work together to gently explore what’s underneath the pain, and help you reconnect with yourself. You don’t have to go through this alone — healing is possible, and support is here.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many of the adults I work with are high‑functioning professionals and students, often in high‑responsibility or high‑pressure roles, who are not falling apart on the outside. They go to work, show up for others, and do what needs to be done. Inside, things may feel flat, heavy, or empty. What once mattered now feels distant. Getting through the day can take more effort than anyone around you realizes. Depression can look like sadness, but it can also look like numbness, irritability, withdrawal, or feeling disconnected from yourself and others. You might notice difficulty getting started even on things you care about, feeling tired all the time or both on edge and drained, pulling away from friends or activities, harsh self‑criticism or a sense of worthlessness, or thoughts that life will never really feel different. In our work together, we take your experience seriously without rushing to fix it. We look at how depression shows up in your body, thoughts, and relationships, and at the contexts that may be shaping it, such as trauma, identity stress, chronic pain or illness, caregiving, or high‑pressure work and school environments. I offer a stable, non‑pressuring space where you do not have to pretend you are okay. From there, we begin to notice what lightens things even slightly, what still matters to you, and what small shifts are possible at a pace that respects your nervous system and your life.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
Depression is the second most common issue I treat in my practice - ranging from grief and loss, to adjustment issues with a new job or new baby, to full blown clinical depression requiring adjuvant medication. The goal is to help you understand the underlying cause (which affects the course of treatment), while also empowering you to make changes and cope differently. At its root, depression is a feeling of helplessness and powerlessness, and we play to your strengths and supports to dig you out of that feeling toward one of choice and control.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Courtesy of PsychCentral: "CBT works by helping you change any unhelpful thought processes that may be contributing to your depression. Through various techniques, CBT aims to do the following:
Identify and challenge negative thoughts: CBT teaches you to spot and challenge automatic negative thoughts linked to depression, like feeling helpless, hopeless, or worthless.
Restructure cognitive patterns: A therapist will work with you to reframe your interpretation of life events, altering any core beliefs that contribute to depressive symptoms.
Develop coping strategies: CBT teaches effective coping skills and problem-solving techniques to handle challenging situations.
Behavioral activation: Your CBT therapist will encourage you to do enjoyable things to fight against feeling withdrawn and inactive, common feelings in depression.
Relapse prevention: CBT not only treats current symptoms but also focuses on preventing future relapses by teaching strategies to maintain healthier thoughts and behavior patterns..."
