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.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Since I am not a licensed therapist, I'm not allowed to diagnose conditions such as Depression. This is a term that is often thrown around quite readily and clients often state they suffer from depression, whether or not they have been formally diagnosed by a therapist in the past. Generally, it is a rather broad diagnosis covering a wide range of behaviors. For hypnotists, many of these behaviors are simply a negative habit of mind that we can change, neutralizing many of the past traumas that have led to their problems. I have worked with many such clients, however. In many cases my clients have been in therapy for years, even decades, and while they understood the roots of their feelings, they got no relief. One of my earliest clients was a woman who suffered tremendous emotional abuse as a child and grew up with a crushing feeling of worthlessness. She became grossly overweight and worked at menial jobs her whole life, unable to form any successful and satisfying relationships. Through hypnosis, she was able to lose 170 pounds and after one session focused on her past trauma, she was so lightened of her lifelong burden of self loathing that she practically floated out of my office and she insisted on paying me double my fee. She has been free of her burdens now for 5 years and comes in once a year for a refresher session. I have had many such results in my practice.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with depression by helping them understand and manage their symptoms. Through evidence-based approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and behavioral activation, I help people challenge negative thought patterns, improve their mood, and develop healthy coping strategies. My goal is to support individuals in finding ways to increase their motivation, reconnect with activities they enjoy, and build a stronger sense of well-being. Referrals for medication management, if desired, are made to local prescribing providers. Treatment resistant depression, although rare, is referred to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), ketamine therapy, and/or other psychedelic psychotherapy options if locally available.

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.

Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re struggling with depression, you may feel weighed down by a constant sense of heaviness, low motivation, or a loss of interest in things you used to enjoy. Even simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and you may find yourself stuck in patterns of negative thinking, self-doubt, or emotional numbness. From the outside, it might look like you’re functioning—but inside, it can feel like you’re just getting through the day.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that keep depression in place—both mentally and emotionally. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to identify and shift the negative thought cycles that reinforce feelings of hopelessness or discouragement. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we address the deeper emotional patterns and help re-engage your mind and body in a more responsive, energized way. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you take meaningful action, reconnect with what matters to you, and begin moving forward—even when motivation is low.
What’s often missing isn’t effort—you may already be trying to “push through” or think more positively. What’s missing is a structured way to shift the underlying patterns that keep pulling you back into the same emotional state. Without that, depression can continue to feel stuck, regardless of how much you try to change it on your own.
The fact that you’re reading this suggests a part of you is still looking for something different. If you’re willing to take that next step, I can help you begin to feel more like yourself again—more engaged, more hopeful, and more in control of your direction.
