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
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.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
f you’ve been feeling low for a long time, struggling to enjoy things you once cared about, or finding it hard to get through the day, you’re not alone. Depression is a common and very real condition. It can stem from many different factors—genetic, biological, emotional, social, or environmental—and it affects each person differently.
The good news is: healing is possible.
Psychotherapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore what you’re going through. Together, we can begin to uncover the roots of your depression and gently work toward healthier ways of thinking and coping.
One important part of this process involves learning to recognize and reframe negative thought patterns that often come with depression. Over time, you can start to feel more in control, experience relief, and reconnect with the parts of life that bring you meaning and joy.
You don’t have to face this alone. Change is possible—and it can start with a single conversation.

Depression
Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating depression in therapy helps people identify negative thoughts and behaviors that contribute to feelings of sadness or hopelessness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is commonly used to change these thoughts into healthier ones. Therapy also provides a space to explore the causes of depression, like past trauma or stress, and learn coping skills such as mindfulness or relaxation techniques. The goal is to improve emotional well-being, build resilience, and teach practical ways to manage and reduce depression over time.

Depression
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I assist individuals dealing with depression by using a blend of psychodynamic insights, evidence based practices and a strength-based approach. Fundamentally, I use a psychodynamic lens to help the client explore underlying emotional conflicts and past experiences that may contribute to their current struggles, fostering deeper self-awareness and insight. Regarding evidence based practices, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)to help to address negative thought patterns and behaviors, providing clients with practical tools to manage their symptoms effectively. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can also be helpful to incorporate into treatment given that depression often involves avoiding situations, people, or activities that could trigger negative emotions. ACT helps individuals confront and engage with these avoided aspects of life in a mindful and values-driven manner, reducing avoidance and increasing overall life engagement. By focusing on clients’ inherent strengths, passions and past successes, I also help them re-build a sense of self-efficacy, confidence and resilience which can impact and improve depressive symptoms. Lastly, I commonly develop collaborative relationships with clients physicians in order to offer a more integrated treatment plan that supports the clients healing.

Aguib Diop
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
Depression is often maintained by a cycle of negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Once this cycle is identified, we start the challenging but rewarding process of replacing negative thoughts and behaviors with those that change how we feel about ourselves, our situations and our futures.
