Depression
Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Chronic low mood is not uncommon in our society. I help clients from a standpoint of radical authenticity and an understanding that those typically afflicted by depression have higher emotional and intelligence quotients. Given this, clients are often are able to do meaningful work in remitting and maintaining depressive symptoms and moving toward purpose and fulfillment.

Depression
Tara McGrath
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is often less about feeling sad and more about feeling numb or "blah." I've worked with folks with varying degrees of depression for as long as I have been a therapist. The way out is often a mixture of self-compassion, tiny action steps to build momentum, and getting distance from negative thinking and reducing its power.

Depression
Hayden Dover
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Depression is not something I approach as an isolated symptom list. It often involves disconnection from energy, pleasure, purpose, the body, relationships, or a sense of possibility. My work focuses on understanding what has contributed to that disconnection while also helping clients move toward more vitality, engagement, self-understanding, connection, meaning, and a life that feels more alive, satisfying, and worth participating in.

Depression
Matthew Weisskopf
Psychologist, PhD
I can assist clients with addressing depression with cognitive behavioral therapy. This includes assisting a client with shifting negative thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors in a more positive direction. When this positive shift occurs, this can have significant benefits for depression.

Depression
Claire Babbitt, LMFT, JD
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, J.D.
In some cases patients experience depression because of underlying unresolved conflict. It can be helpful to gain insight into some of the individual's struggles and fears, which in some cases may be unconscious and not are not always apparent to the patient. Insight gained in psychodynamic psychotherapy may help
patients gain clarity and understanding into patterns and reactions which have contributed to the patient's anxiety and in some cases difficulty in relationships.
In some cases referral for psychiatric evaluation or medication may be helpful , depending on whether this is something the patient wants to consider.

Depression
GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with clients experiencing depression through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens that explores the emotional, somatic, and relational roots of low mood. Using Compassionate Inquiry®, we gently uncover patterns shaped by early experiences and life stress, while building self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful coping strategies. For some clients, we also explore the supportive use of microdosing as an adjunct to therapy, helping enhance self-reflection and emotional regulation. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space to reconnect with your inner wisdom and reclaim a sense of hope and purpose.

Depression
Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Depression can feel heavy and draining, making it hard to find motivation, joy, or a sense of meaning. You may feel disconnected from yourself or others, stuck in cycles of self-criticism or guilt, or exhausted no matter how much you rest. Over time, depression can shrink your world and make it difficult to believe that things can truly change.
In therapy with me, we’ll work to understand what’s contributing to your depression and gently reconnect you with yourself and your life. You’ll gain practical tools to help lift the weight day to day, while also working through the patterns, beliefs, and emotional pain beneath the surface. Together, we’ll move toward greater stability, self-compassion, and a life that feels more alive and aligned.
