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.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with clients experiencing depression through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens that explores the emotional, somatic, and relational roots of low mood. Using Compassionate Inquiry®, we gently uncover patterns shaped by early experiences and life stress, while building self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful coping strategies. For some clients, we also explore the supportive use of microdosing as an adjunct to therapy, helping enhance self-reflection and emotional regulation. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space to reconnect with your inner wisdom and reclaim a sense of hope and purpose.

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.

Hider Shaaban
Psychologist, PsyD
With depression, my approach integrates skills and understanding where it comes from, if there is an environmental origin to it. Understanding the thoughts and behaviors that shape your feelings of depression is crucial to changing such feelings.

Rachel J Fischer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a warm, welcoming psychologist who uses an insight-oriented (“psychodynamic”) and relational approach to therapy. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for my clients to explore their concerns, develop greater insight into themselves and feel more confident and "on top of" their depression so that they can embrace a more fulfilling life.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships that are not meeting our needs, the stressors of life, and feeling stuck or unsatisfied professionally can lead to prolonged feelings of sadness. Perhaps your childhood experiences did not give you the opportunity to develop a strong sense of who you are or that you matter. Therapy can help you regulate the intensity of depression and make a pivot in how you respond to its presence, making way for less struggle and more opportunities for choosing how you want to live.

Carolynn Hanzal

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.

Chuck Gray, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR. I also offer counseling tools that I personally developed here in Houston.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression often reflects more than sadness—it can signal unmet emotional needs, patterns in relationships, or early experiences that still shape your life. In our work, we gently explore what your feelings are communicating while offering a steady, supportive presence. By approaching depression with curiosity and care, it can become a doorway to understanding yourself more deeply and finding renewed connection and meaning.

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.
