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.

Depression can affect every aspect of life, leaving you feeling exhausted, disconnected, hopeless, or stuck. It may become difficult to find motivation, enjoy activities you once loved, or feel hopeful about the future. Together, we'll explore the factors contributing to your depression and develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your goals. Using evidence-based approaches, including EMDR when appropriate, I help clients process difficult experiences, strengthen coping strategies, and reconnect with a greater sense of purpose, resilience, and well-being.

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.

Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Depression isn't always just something that happened to you. Sometimes it is also doing something for you.
I sometimes think about the word “depression” like a tongue depressor—it pushes something down. For some people, what's been pushed down is anger, grief, desire, disappointment, or parts of themselves they learned long ago weren't safe to express. For others, depression develops after years of living according to who they thought they were supposed to be, gradually losing touch with what they actually want.
This is why depression doesn't always look like overwhelming sadness. It can feel like emptiness, disconnection, exhaustion, low motivation, or simply going through the motions of a life that no longer feels meaningful.
My approach to depression therapy is psychodynamic and depth-oriented. Of course we want you to feel better, but we're also interested in understanding why you're depressed. Together, we explore the emotions, experiences, relationship patterns, and internal conflicts beneath the symptoms so that change can happen at a deeper level.
The goal isn't simply to make depression disappear. It's to help you reconnect with parts of yourself that may have gone quiet—and begin feeling more present, engaged, and alive in your own life.

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.
