Depression can be episodic or chronic. We need to understand what your depression is built out of. What memories, thoughts, and feelings contribute to a narrative in your life and what daily routines support the ongoing feeling of depression.

Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Depression can feel like heaviness, disconnection, low motivation, or a loss of meaning. It’s not just “in your head." It often lives in the body as fatigue, numbness, or shutdown. Together, we gently work with both the emotional and physical layers of depression, helping you reconnect with vitality, access small moments of movement, and rebuild a sense of possibility at a pace that respects where you are.

New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Depression can feel heavy and isolating—draining your energy, dulling your joy, and making even simple tasks feel overwhelming. Often, it is connected to unresolved grief, trauma, chronic stress, or deeply rooted beliefs of hopelessness or inadequacy. In therapy, we compassionately explore the underlying causes of your depression while building practical tools to restore motivation, emotional balance, and hope. Through evidence-based care and Christ-centered support, you’ll have a safe space to process your pain, reconnect with purpose, and move toward renewed strength and light.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Low mood that does not lift, loss of motivation, the heaviness of getting through the day. Depression has many causes and is best supported by a team that may include a medical doctor and a licensed mental health professional. Within that picture, RTT can be a powerful complement. It works at the subconscious level to find and update the beliefs that often sit underneath low mood, things like "I am not enough", "I do not matter" or "nothing I do will change anything". When those root beliefs shift, many clients describe feeling lighter and more able to engage with life again. If you are currently under medical care, please continue to work with your provider. I am happy to work alongside them.

Sadness is part of the human condition. The causes of it are often more complicated than it sometimes seems at face value. Sometimes we don't have any clue why we are sad or depressed. I am here to help you talk about these feelings in a safe, empathic environment.

Depression can make even the simplest parts of life feel heavy getting out of bed, staying focused, or feeling connected to the people you love. I provide a warm, steady, and non‑judgmental space to help you understand what’s beneath the sadness, numbness, or exhaustion you’ve been carrying. Using evidence‑based approaches like CBT and mindfulness based strategies, we work together to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, rebuild motivation, and strengthen emotional resilience.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Depression, at a minimum, involves feeling sad and loosing interest in things and activities once found pleasurable. Depression impacts eating, sleeping, thought processes, and often negatively impacts self esteem, relationships, and work/school functioning. CBT is very effective in treating depression.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have been struggling with various symptoms of depression. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Her approach is warm, highly personalized, and grounded in what research tells us really works.

Cynthia A. Criss
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Depression and addiction often go hand in hand, creating a complex cycle that's challenging to break. Here are some key points to consider if you're addressing this topic for your website or audience:
The Connection Between Depression and Addiction:
Self-Medication: People with depression may turn to substances (alcohol, drugs, etc.) to cope with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or anxiety. Biological and Environmental Factors: Both conditions can stem from genetic predispositions, traumatic experiences, or chronic stress. Cycle of Worsening Symptoms: Addiction can intensify depressive symptoms, creating a vicious cycle that makes recovery more challenging.
How My Counseling Service Can Help:
Offer compassionate, tailored approaches to treat co-occurring disorders.
Provide a safe space for clients to explore their emotions and challenges.
Collaborate with other professionals, such as psychiatrists, to ensure holistic care.

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I work with children, adolescents, and adults with depression by considering with you how intensely hopeless or despairing feelings may affect your thoughts and beliefs about yourself, others, and the world around you; how to regulate feelings of hopelessness and worry, and which factor(s) may be contributing to your depression. I also work with you on behavioral activation for depression strategies to support motivation and self-care.
