Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Although historically I have helped people with severe Depression, my current practice tends to help people overcome more moderate levels of Depression, or at least Depressions that are in at least partial remission. In many ways this relates to my practice being conducted online. In general, I use a biopsychosocial model in how I approach helping people to gain mastery over Depression. I try to help my clients to replace patterns that increase Depression with patterns that will counteract it related to their thoughts, feelings, behavior, relationships, and context. Toward this end, I support my Depressed clients in evaluating how they are doing in each of these areas, to consider the results they are getting with the strategies they are using in each of these areas and then to find alternatives that will serve them better. One guiding premise I use is that Depression focuses on the past. So, much of what I strive to assist Depressed clients in doing is to shift to considering what they would ideally like in the future and then to assist them in moving toward that future collaboratively. As with other areas, the specific techniques and strategies used will vary for each client, and most often a combination of interventions are used in a sequence based upon the particular needs and preference of each particular client.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Depression is often a symptom of unresolved feelings. It can be a reaction to anxiety that has exhausted itself, or anger turned inward. Some people are perfectionistic to a fault and constantly beat up on themselves for failing to attain an impossible standard of living. As a psychodynamic clinician, I help depressed people find the roots of their depression, rather than just addressing the symptoms.
