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Behavioral activation: Your CBT therapist will encourage you to do enjoyable things to fight against feeling withdrawn and inactive, common feelings in depression.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..."

Shelly Melroe
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Through the lens of mind-body therapies, depression is understood as pattern of symptoms that develops as protective features from early childhood experiences that compromised neuro development. The good news about the mind-body connections, is that they can be healed, restores, and shaped to function for health at any age and stage of life. Shelly uses neural interventions that can lift the halo of negativity and the felt sense of stuckness or numbness that can make it impossible to step into the changes that you want to make and just can't.

Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions diagnosed. In my experience, cognitive-behavioral therapy has been the most effective approach to treating depression symptoms. This would entail address thinking errors, altering maladaptive behaviors and increases one's level of mindfulness to reduce depression symptoms.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Depression is often misunderstood, thought to be the same as sadness or grief. While there are certainly similarities, depression has a different quality to it. Depression can make you feel like you have no life spark. It can make you feel like time has stopped. It can feel like it is taking over your life. Depression may be primarily organic, due to a chemical imbalance, or it may be primarily situational, or it can be a combination of both. Therapy can be very helpful for a person experiencing depression. It provides a place where things that are hard to talk about can be worked through. Many times, past trauma, as well as current situations, contribute to depression. Over time, we may get into habits of thought, feeling, and behavior that also contribute to depression. Even dietary habits can contribute. I use a holistic approach with psychodynamic underpinnings to look at past history, past trauma, beliefs, thoughts, feelings and behavioral patterns, and health and self-care habits to help clients address their depression.
