Depression
David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Depression can make everything feel heavier, from getting through the day to finding motivation or enjoyment in things you used to care about. You may feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. In therapy we will focus on understanding what is contributing to these feelings while building small, manageable steps toward change. The goal is to help you feel more engaged, more hopeful, and more connected to your life again.

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.

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.

34 Years Experience
In-Person in Irvine, CA 92606
Irvine is one of the wealthiest and most planned cities in the United States — anchored by UC Irvine and home to the regional headquarters of dozens of major corporations — with a therapy community shaped by the intersection of high-achievement academic culture, tech and finance sector burnout, and a large East Asian population that brings distinct cultural dimensions to help-seeking and mental health. The city's majority-minority population — with Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Iranian communities among the most prominent — drives strong demand for multilingual therapists who can work across multiple cultural frameworks. Hoag Hospital and the UCI Health system provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-established private practice community serving Irvine's planned residential villages. UCI's clinical psychology training program supplies a significant number of therapists to the broader Orange County ecosystem.
