Depression is one of the most common reasons people enter therapy. Stress, tragedy, long periods of overwork, and lack of self-care can all prompt depression. It can happen during life’s happiest moments too. From the birth of a child to new jobs or relationships, life transitions and change can bring about feelings of depression. Depression can feel confusing and hopeless. Luckily, there are excellent treatments for depression that can create real and lasting change.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

Faye Williams
Therapist, Associate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Depression can feel like a dark cloud. I tend to see it as a pile-up of grief that is too much to process at once. Your body may need rest while you're still expected to work. Working this through with a therapist can be key to creating the life you want without feeling held back.

Reginald K. Riggins
Psychologist, PhD
Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions diagnosed. In my experience, cognitive-behavioral therapy has been the most effective approach to treating depression symptoms. This would entail address thinking errors, altering maladaptive behaviors and increases one's level of mindfulness to reduce depression symptoms.

Sometimes we don't want people to tell us about how everything will be o.k. Sometimes we just want them to hold our hand in the darkness.

Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has proved revolutionary for me and many clients I have worked with on reshaping our relationship to sadness and despair from one of trying to avoid or control it OR be overwhelmed and drowned by it to one of acceptance and management of it. This latter way of relating to any unpleasant thought or feeling allows us to continue to thrive and be present for life even while we are experiencing it.
