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.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression can take many forms from adjustment to a new life situation to Major Depressive Disorder. I have found that the majority of people are able to recover from depression with a combination of therapy and medication.

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.

Chris Karcher
Psychologist, PsyD
Some research suggests that one in ten people currently have clinical depression and in a lifetime one out of five people will have depression. Although this is referred to as the 'common cold' of mental health issues, it can involve immense suffering. I draw from ACT, CBT and other modalities to help. For some people being listened to and understood by another person helps recovery from depression.

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.

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
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.

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..."

Kristen Jackson Banister

Depression can feel like heaviness, disconnection, low motivation, or a loss of meaning. It’s not just “in your head." It often lives in the body as fatigue, numbness, or shutdown. Together, we gently work with both the emotional and physical layers of depression, helping you reconnect with vitality, access small moments of movement, and rebuild a sense of possibility at a pace that respects where you are.

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.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, aren't enjoying life, or feel down, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats mood and related issues typically using Behavioral Activation and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

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.
