Depression
The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn
Life Coach, Certified Integrative Coach, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher
Depression has the sensation of being stuck and unable to lift ourselves out of that hole. With mindful self compassion we can begin to work with the feelings that come up that seem to keep us stuck and notice that in fact these feelings have a wide range of experience. We become more comfortable with moving through this range and the space grows to be able to move through the depression rather than feel stuck in it.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
I understand Depression and Depressive Disorders (including Psychotic Depression) as the result of loss. It is the mind/body's response to a normal but difficult aspect of all of our lives. Things get depressed and depressing when we all experience loss. This can be any kind of loss: relationships, family, work, dreams, friendships, school achievements, and/or something special to us. At times Depression can overwhelm any of us. I treat Depression and Depressive Disorders with both mind and body: analysis one or twice per week, supplements for the brain, diet and exercise, and the creation of "flow experiences" for the patient. Connection, attachment, and trust are very important here in the therapeutic relationship as part of the healing process. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Depression
Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression can feel like a loss of energy, motivation, and connection to yourself and others. Rather than only addressing symptoms, I work with individuals to understand the underlying emotional and relational factors contributing to these experiences. Therapy focuses on increasing awareness, processing difficult feelings, and gradually rebuilding a sense of meaning, connection, and engagement in life.

Depression
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Depression rarely looks the same in every person — for many adults it shows up as persistent exhaustion, emotional numbness, loss of motivation, or a quiet sense that something is fundamentally wrong. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults and couples navigate depression, major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, and chronic low mood using a personalized, evidence-based approach. Treatment integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care to address both the symptoms and the deeper patterns driving them. Telehealth therapy for depression available across 40+ states.

Depression
Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Depression can make us feel broken, like we have lost ourselves. It can make us question our self-worth and whether we can be saved or are worth saving. I have been humbled to help move individuals and couples from feeling like they are unloveable or unworthy because of their depression and towards a place of loving themselves more because of it. Light shines much brighter once we have known darkness.
