Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals experiencing depression in its many forms, from persistent low mood and loss of motivation to more complex, longstanding patterns of disconnection and hopelessness. Depression often impacts not just how someone feels, but how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future.
My approach is both compassionate and active. I focus on understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to depression, while also helping clients re-engage with their lives in meaningful, manageable ways. Together, we work to identify what may be keeping them stuck, build greater emotional awareness, and gradually restore a sense of agency, connection, and vitality.
I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without being overwhelmed, and supported without being pushed too quickly—allowing change to unfold in a way that is both sustainable and deeply felt.

Silvina Falcon - Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW
At times you may view yourself negatively and experience the world around you as a desolate place. In those moments, you struggle with feelings of sadness, devastating guilt, and despair. There is nothing positive in your life and joy is elusive. You have a difficult time finding the energy and motivation to accomplish even simple everyday tasks. Feeling of hopeless and helpless persist almost every day.
If these descriptions resonate with your experience, you may be struggling with clinical depression. Depression can arise as a temporary response to overwhelming life events or it can be a constant state that makes joy and optimism impossible to reach. Regardless of its type, there is effective treatment for these symptoms. I have extensive experience in helping clients improve their mood and the quality of their life. I believe that evidence-based methods are the key to alleviate symptoms and relieve emotional pain. The systematic use of cognitive, behavioral, and motivational methods, as well as mindfulness and relapse prevention, can help you manage your symptoms, and begin experience greater freedom and joy. These treatment approaches can allow you to improve your connection with yourself and others and experience more fulfillment in your daily life.

I am well-versed in evidence-based treatment modalities that have been shown to be effective in managing depression. These may include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns and develop coping strategies; interpersonal therapy (IPT), which focuses on improving relationships and communication skills; and behavioral activation, which involves increasing engagement in positive, rewarding activities.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
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.

I have been treating depression symptoms and related disorders for many years such that it is an area in which I have particular experience.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Depression can manifest in many different ways for different people. Some are struggling to recover from a loss or setback and just can't find a way to get back to their old selves. Others may have struggled with shifting mood, confidence, energy, self-esteem, etc. for what seems like their whole lives and very few things seem to work. Many individuals used to have a full life with many rewarding relationships and activities but, at some point, what used to bring them happiness no longer does it for them. Finally, some people experience depressive "episodes" beginning in their late teens or early adulthood that appear to come and go without any trigger and feel more like a traditional "chemical imbalance." My approach to depression offers something different for individuals who have not had much success with traditional CBT and/or "talk" therapies. I utilized a combination evidence-based behavioral activities and emotion regulation skills to first restore positive experiences in your day to day life. Once short-term strategies for increasing wellbeing have been established, we will explore and process the impact depression has had across your life to further build your resilience against future recurrences of unhelpful mood fluctuations.
