Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel exhausting. You may feel numb, hopeless, disconnected, or stuck in a cycle you can't seem to break. Whether you're experiencing persistent sadness, lack of motivation, or just don’t feel like yourself anymore, you're not alone—and there is a way forward. I provide a compassionate, supportive space to explore the roots of your depression, challenge negative thought patterns, and help you reconnect with meaning, motivation, and hope. Healing is possible, and it starts with not having to face it alone.

Peter Hoistad
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LADC
Working through depression is something I have lots of experience with. The biggest thing to remember is that it takes a long time to change the way something has affected someone, so keeping in mind that it is a marathon and not a sprint helps build the foundations to overcoming the depressive symptoms.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
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. I strive to give my patients a myriad of coping skills and therapeutic tools that will allow them to deftly navigate the world’s everyday stressors, and ask them to look introspectively at their own expectations and biases as together we resist heteronormative patriachal structures.

Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee
Often depression results from our environment or from faulty beliefs about ourselves or the world that we learned as a child. Subconsciously those work on us in a negative way. Finding the faulty subconscious thinking and retraining ourselves can often make a significant difference in our mood.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
A common feature of depression is a pervasive sense of hopelessness, which aims to protect depressed individuals from working toward change, failing, and then being disappointed. My initial goal when working with depressed clients is to foster a sense of hope and a belief in their ability to change, such that clients will feel empowered to pursue their goals and live their lives to the fullest extent.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, where I work with adults experiencing depression, low mood, and a loss of vitality or meaning in daily life. Depression often involves more than sadness alone; it may include feelings of emptiness, self-criticism, withdrawal, or a sense of being disconnected from oneself or others.
My work is grounded in the belief that emotional difficulties often have meanings that are not immediately apparent. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers a space to slow down and explore the emotional experiences, relationships, and internal expectations that contribute to depressive states. Through careful attention to one’s inner life over time, it becomes possible to understand how depression has taken shape and to develop new ways of relating to oneself and others.
I also work with couples who wish to understand how depression may affect communication, intimacy, and emotional connection within relationships.

Dr. Paul Daanen
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression is nearly always the result of exposure to some form of trauma, whether that is a single catastrophic incident or long term exposure to abuse or neglect. I specialize in working with the role that a person's inner self plays in provoking depression. Specifically, are you someone who has an inner voice that attacks you, or runs you down, or has expectations that are too high to meet? I can help you to transform the way you think and talk to yourself and thereby help to reduce your depression.

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.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It's important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Depression can feel like you’re carrying a weight that never lifts—no matter how much you push through, you still feel exhausted, disconnected, and empty. You might find yourself withdrawing from loved ones, feeling numb, or struggling to find motivation for even the simplest tasks. Maybe you tell yourself you “should” be fine, that other people have it worse, but deep down, you feel stuck in a cycle you can’t break. Even when things in your life seem objectively “okay,” you might still battle feelings of unworthiness, guilt, or hopelessness. This isn’t just sadness—it’s the result of unresolved pain, self-doubt, and a nervous system that has learned to shut down instead of feeling safe and engaged. If you grew up in an environment where your emotions weren’t validated, where you had to suppress your needs to avoid conflict or rejection, it makes sense that your mind and body adapted by numbing out and disconnecting.
But depression doesn’t have to define you. Healing isn’t about forcing yourself to “think positive” or just “try harder”—it’s about getting to the root of what’s keeping you stuck. Using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help clients release stored trauma, reprocess painful memories, and rebuild self-worth. Instead of just managing symptoms, therapy helps you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels authentic, hopeful, and sustainable. You deserve to feel alive, engaged, and at peace in your own life—and you don’t have to get there alone.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Depression is more than sadness — it's a heaviness that can quietly disconnect you from yourself, your relationships, and the things that once brought you joy. At Restored, we look beneath the surface to understand what's feeding it, using attachment-based therapy and EMDR to address the subconscious beliefs and patterns that keep depression entrenched. We also collaborate with our naturopathic doctors for clients who want to explore integrative, root-cause approaches to support their mental wellness.

Carolynn Hanzal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Depression can keep us caged in. It likes to isolate us and tell us so much negative. I help clients to break through the cage by helping to identify values and then commit to taking actions towards those values to lead a more meaningful life.

Navigating the Path Out of Depression
We believe that depression is not a personal failure, but a complex clinical condition that requires a comprehensive approach. We combine deep empathy with modern tools to help you find your footing again.
Our Clinical Approach
We use a variety of "gold-standard" therapies to address the biological, emotional, and cognitive layers of depression:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To identify and shift the "automatic negative thoughts" that fuel a depressed mood.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): To help you move toward your values even when motivation is low.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): To understand the "parts" of you that may be using withdrawal or numbness as a way to cope with deep pain.
Brainspotting & EMDR: To process underlying trauma that may be manifesting as chronic depression.
For Youth (Ages 10+): We use specialized interactive software to help younger clients express feelings of "heaviness" or "emptiness" through engaging, visual mediums.
Your Collaborative Treatment Journey
We believe you are the expert on your own experience. Our process ensures you are an active partner in your recovery:
Full Clinical Assessment: We meet with you to determine your current needs—looking at sleep, energy, mood, and any life factors contributing to how you feel.
Setting Treatment Goals: Together, we define what "thriving" looks like for you. It might be returning to a hobby, improving work performance, or simply feeling a sense of hope again.
A Shared Plan: We discuss and agree upon a treatment plan that fits your pace. We regularly check in to see how you are progressing toward your goals.
Accessibility & Ease of Care
We know that when you are struggling with depression, navigating healthcare can feel overwhelming. We’ve streamlined our process to support you:
Support Staff: Our team is available to help you find the right therapist match so you don't have to do the research alone.
Free Consultations: Meet with a therapist first to ensure you feel a sense of comfort and "fit."
Flexible Access: We offer online therapy, online booking, and are available 7 days a week to fit your energy levels and schedule.
Fully Covered: We accept all Minnesota insurance groups, ensuring that cost isn't a barrier to your healing.
