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.

Ben Leddick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression can feel like a pit that requires every ounce of strength to do simple tasks. Depression is often about looking back at life and feeling hopeless that anything could be different in the future. Taking the first step to address this overwhelming cloud and move towards a possibility of hope can create movement towards something new.

Barbara Jaurequi Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT, MAC
There are a lot of misunderstandings about depression. Depression is not sadness. Sadness may or may not be a component of your depression. There are many different symptoms of depression and not everyone experiences depression in the same way. One thing that is the same for everyone is that you just can't seem to work yourself out of it on your own. Therapy can help. I use a combination of insight-oriented therapy and behavioral interventions to help you get you to the other side of your depression. It's very important to get help as soon as you can because, left untreated, depression tends to get worse over time. You do not have to suffer - depression is very common but it's also very treatable.

Lancaster is the largest city of the Antelope Valley, a high-desert community north of Los Angeles shaped by aerospace employment tied to Edwards Air Force Base and the region's flight-test heritage, alongside families drawn by affordability. Geographic isolation from the LA basin, extreme summer heat, and long commutes for many workers contribute to stress, and the valley has historically had fewer providers than its population needs. Antelope Valley Medical Center and regional clinics anchor care, with telehealth increasingly bridging the distance to LA's larger therapy market.
