Depression
Molly Schmidt
Therapist
Depression is more than just feeling sad; it's a complex mental health condition that affects thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can manifest as persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, changes in appetite or sleep patterns, fatigue, feelings of worthlessness or guilt, difficulty concentrating, and even physical aches and pains. In our work together, we will focus on learning coping skills, gaining emotional insight, and developing strategies to manage symptoms and work towards reclaiming a sense of fulfillment and purpose in your life.

Vanessa Wolter Holistic Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I also have a lot of experience working with depression. I look at depression as not just a symptom but as a functional mechanism of the nervous system. I help clients follow their depression story to it’s roots to understand why depression became necessary to manage their experience. Depression can often be a way humans numb out because of loss, pain, or hyperarousal. If we can understand the underlying cause we can then focus on how to support those needs and sensitivities so that depression’s job becomes obsolete.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Often when painful feelings have become too overwhelming to process and we're having recurring negative thoughts about ourselves or the world, we become depressed. Sometimes it takes the hope and guidance of another to navigate the way through.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a human is hard. Who doesn't get depressed now and again? But what if it is more than that? You've been feeling a little down, then the day comes when you just cannot get out of bed, nothing sounds fun (not even the things that usually do), and you just can't quite get yourself to make that call or take that walk, even though you know it might help you to feel better. Then the day stretches to two days, then three, and it starts to feel like you will never feel "normal" again. These feelings are intense, and painful, and you do not have to suffer them alone. Call or email me today.
