Depression
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.

I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy as a first-line approach to the treatment of depression. Often mindfulness is incorporated into depression treatment, as are DBT skills.

Depression
Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression is a dark, crushing weight. When we’re lost in the darkness it’s difficult to find the light or even trust that it’s there. But it is. The darkness is scary for sure, and yet even depression is trying to help us in some way, like for example, trying to keep us safe. It doesn’t realize we don’t need protection in that way or to that degree. We will explore where and why these thoughts and feelings are stuck, and challenge, rework and update them to bring more light into your life.

Depression
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.

Depression
Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Feeling weighed down by sadness, loss of interest, or a sense of disconnection leads to feeling less fulfilled day to day. I will help you create a path forward by focusing not on eliminating difficult feelings, but on learning to accept them while actively committing to actions that align with your values and create a rich and meaningful life. My approach is rooted in the principles of ACT, helping you to break free from the cycle of avoidance and move towards a life filled with purpose and engagement.
