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.

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.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Depression can leave you feeling exhausted, disconnected, hopeless, or unlike yourself. Even ordinary responsibilities may feel overwhelming, while self-criticism and painful thoughts make it difficult to imagine that life could feel different.
I provide a compassionate space to explore the experiences and patterns beneath your depression without judgment. Together, we work to reduce emotional pain, challenge negative beliefs, rebuild motivation, and reconnect you with your strengths, relationships, and sense of purpose. You do not have to face depression alone; healing can begin with one supported step forward.

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.
