Depression
Grace Akopyan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #145795
Have you ever felt as if you had a mental block? This block prevents you from moving forward, thinking about something else and most of all changing your emotions. When someone gets in a negative downward spiral and find it very difficult to get out of it is probably because you don’t know how to. This might sound crazy, but most people who suffer with anxiety and depression start out in this same mental state that I just described. As a california marriage and family therapist and professor, I teach psychotherapists how to help clients who are in this exact mental state. There’s a cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach known as CBT that touches on something called distortions. The best way that I can explain the distortions is by having you think of those disgusting negative messages that replays in your head. This message often makes you feel horrible, worthless, stuck and like there’s no point. CBT allows you to take back control of those distortions in order to help you change your mindset to reduce or get rid of that anxiety. Feel free to schedule a session with me to see if I will be a good fit for you.

Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Depression is normal. We all get depressed. It's our body's way of saying something is wrong. We're either living with something that no longer serves us, or we're yearning for something that has been missing. For a long time now, the psychology and psychiatric communities have treated depression as something to get rid of, something to treat. And while nobody wants to be depressed, efforts to get rid of it, or diminish its symptoms, tend to make things worse. Luckily, there are new and much more effective ways to work with depression. Therapies that include the body (somatic psychology), mindfulness (MBSR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and neuro-science have a much better success rate in treating depression. When we approach depression as a messenger and listen to what it is telling us, it tends to go away! So, what is your depression telling you? What is in your life that shouldn't be? What is missing? For over 25 years I have been helping my clients overcome depression blending the best from the worlds of somatic psychology, mindfulness, and neuroscience.

Depression often carries unspoken grief, anger, or disconnection. Our work goes beyond symptom relief to understand its deeper meaning while building practical tools for resilience and renewed aliveness.

Depression
Ryan Muldoon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For depression, many therapists recommend quickly getting into action with exercise, meditation, socializing, etc. These are certainly effective! But sometimes it's best to honor your depression. It’s possible that healing may begin by doing things society unfairly shames us for, like sleeping in, closing the curtain, or indulging in that pint of ice cream. My clients have reported feeling instant relief from the shame that’s lifted when they hear this. And from there, the healing continues.

Depression can seem impossible to overcome, due to its dark and enveloping nature. However, turning within and healing the wounds that cause depression is an immensely liberating component of psycho-therapy.
