Depression
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Depression can place significant strain on a relationship, often leading to disconnection, communication challenges, increased conflict, or feelings of isolation for both partners. This is exactly at a time when people are actually needing greater connection. Through the Gottman Method, couples therapy helps partners better understand how depression impacts the relationship dynamic while strengthening emotional support, communication, and support. Therapy focuses on creating a secure and compassionate partnership, helping couples navigate difficult emotions together rather than feeling alone in them. By building healthier patterns of interaction and emotional responsiveness, couples are more resilient.

Depression
Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you're feeling exhausted, discouraged, down, and sluggish, adding something else to the list of things to do is likely the last thing that you'd want. Even if it is "supposed to be helpful", finding a the right therapist and starting the process of therapy can be overwhelming. I work to reduce that barrier as much as possible by using EMDR and Internal Family Systems to help you feel like yourself and to build the skills and strengths to buffer you against depression in the future. In working together you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and an abundance of metaphors. Reach out for a free consultation and lets see how we can move forward together.

Dr. L. Pittman
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have worked throughout my career to help individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) manage aspects of depression that are significantly impacting their functioning and well-being. I further help them identify strengths and skills that can help them best manage their depression. This sometimes involves referral to and/or collaboration with a medication prescriber for comprehensive care and maximization of management of symptoms.

Depression
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.

Augustin Kendall
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
The numbness, self-criticism, and loss of joy or interest that are hallmarks of depression can be debilitating. I work with you to identify root causes of depression (whether they are neurochemical or experiential), explore the ways depression might be related to past experiences and how you can resolve the emotions remaining from them, learn how to maintain relationships even when you feel a strong desire to isolate, and develop daily routines that help keep you going. I also offer a supportive, validating space for you to express the pain and other emotions that can be associated with 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.

Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LICSW, LMFT, LPCC
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.

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.

Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Feeling weighed down by sadness, loss of interest, or a sense of disconnection leads to feeling less fulfilled day to day. I will help you create a path forward by focusing not on eliminating difficult feelings, but on learning to accept them while actively committing to actions that align with your values and create a rich and meaningful life. My approach is rooted in the principles of ACT, helping you to break free from the cycle of avoidance and move towards a life filled with purpose and engagement.

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.

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. Nelson uses Integrative mental health that addresses brain health which is directly influenced by biological factors, psychological factors, social factors, and spiritual factors. Dr. Nelson will help you explore these four areas and ways to improve your brain health.

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.

Dr. Mike Lee

I help individuals meet depression with understanding rather than isolation, relieve distress, and rebuild a more livable rhythm. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening above and beneath the surface and turn that clarity into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less heaviness, more energy and choice, and the capacity to reengage with what matters.
