Depression
Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I know depression. I know its pain. I know the feeling of desperation and feeling totally disempowered and frightened that often comes with depression.
I became a clinical psychologist precisely because I wanted to learn how to help people who suffer with depression as I have in the past. It is black and it is lonely. But it does not have to be allowed to take over your life. You CAN take your life back by taking your mood back. I can show you how to begin to do it.
People too frequently say "I am depressed" when what they really mean is "I feel sad". "Depression" is a clinical disorder, and it is only appropriate to say someone is "depressed" if they meet all the criteria for depression.
Assessments of depression will measure the clinical symptoms of depression but what does it FEEL like on a daily basis? When you feel depressed, you are not thinking about the clinical symptoms, you are thinking and feeling more along the lines of just being "stuck".
In fact the experience of depression is feeling "stuck in present pain." The pain is NOW, the feeling of not being able to get out of it is NOW, and the stuck "I can't get out of this" feeling produces discouragement, frustration, sadness, very negative views of ourselves, and hopelessness--all emotions that seem to cause us to sink a little deeper every day.
I can help you get unstuck--contact me and let's begin to work to get you feeling more empowered, unstuck, moving forward again, and happier.

Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
There's feeling depressed and then there's DEPRESSION. While neither is fun, it is important to get a proper diagnosis so treatment can begin and a resolution to the Major Depressive Episode can happen. Interventions for chronic, low grade depression are different than for acute, Major Depressive Episodes. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon to have both! Behavioral activation is an important CBT intervention to start chipping away at the block of ice that is MDD.

Depression
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I approach depression initially by exploring your life circumstances and/or the thoughts going through your head that are trigging your mood. There are times when we may want to look at the old tape recordings playing through your head triggering depression. Once I have an idea of what is fueling your depression then we can target that. I teach your how to use thought strategies and behavior strategies to reduce depression and improve your mood. My goal is to teach you several tools so that in any given situation, you have a tool to use.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
While depression isn't my primary focus a recent meta-analysis (study combining many studies) proved that focusing on treating worry and anxiety relieves depression as much as targeting it directly. My unique and simple approach to cognitive therapy for anxiety applies equally well to depression. Nonetheless, when we used relaxation only, to target worry and anxiety, it lifted depression as much as those groups who used cognitive therapy. However, if you are so depressed that you have recently contemplated suicide, I suggest you see someone in a group practice or someone who is willing to take emergency calls 24/7 because I do not do that.

Chasity Goddard

Depression arises from avoiding, or having difficulty with, living in the present. Peace and calm are in the present instead of living in the past or the future. I use AAIT to help you fully experience the peace of the present.

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.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships that are not meeting our needs, the stressors of life, and feeling stuck or unsatisfied professionally can lead to prolonged feelings of sadness. Perhaps your childhood experiences did not give you the opportunity to develop a strong sense of who you are or that you matter. Therapy can help you regulate the intensity of depression and make a pivot in how you respond to its presence, making way for less struggle and more opportunities for choosing how you want to live.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Are you a high-functioning, self-reliant woman who cycles through periods of emotional pain that you keep hidden from others? Perfectly hidden depression is a term for appearing successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing severe emotional pain. Coined by psychologist Dr. Margaret Rutherford, perfectly hidden depression hides behind anxious perfectionism that is trying to compensate for unhealed shame and a fear of emotional vulnerability. I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.

Depression
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Depression can feel like a dense, dark, and heavy blanket that weighs us down, sucks the joy out of life, impairs concentration and focus, leads us to question why we are living and if the hardship is worth it, makes us feel stuck, and confuses our brains into believing that we are worthless and that the negative feelings will last forever. Therapy can be essential in reducing symptoms, shifting the "stories" we tell ourselves about ourselves, more effectively coping with loss and upset, learning self-care, managing and healing from trauma, and shifting perspective so that we can feel better and develop lasting changes.

Memphis has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime in the United States, and its therapists frequently specialize in trauma, PTSD, and the psychological effects of chronic community-level violence and economic stress. The city's African American community — which comprises a majority of the population and carries a rich cultural heritage rooted in blues, soul, and civil rights history — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. Regional One Health and Baptist Memorial Health Care provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of community clinics. Memphis's deep musical identity sustains a creative community with its own distinctive mental health needs around artistic expression, economic precarity, and the weight of legacy.
