Mishel Cowart
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA
I work with clients who experience depressive symptoms. People experiencing depression can feel a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest in daily activities. It affects how you feel, think and behave. It may also lead to emotional and physical problems. Day to day activities may feel difficult to initiate and complete. Exploring your inner life with the help of a skilled clinician like myself, will provide you with a better understanding of your unique qualities, thereby helping to alleviate or diminish your symptoms of depression. My goal is to work with your depression, assess these deep valid feelings and use them as a guide to lead you toward a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
If life has no joy, if life feels lonely, or if life seems meaningless, then we would say you feel depressed. Depression is more than a mindset, but it has the power to grip your mind and body in fear and shame. I take a holistic approach to depression. We will explore the power of the body to help the mind while also helping the mind support the body. It is a ying-yang relationship. I am now offering Virtual Reality therapy to help with depressive symptoms.

Fuller Life Concepts
Marriage and Family Therapist
Teen depression is more than occasional moodiness—it can affect sleep, motivation, school performance, friendships, and family relationships. Teens may appear withdrawn, irritable, overly tired, or lose interest in activities they once enjoyed. Some struggle silently with feelings of hopelessness, low self-worth, or overwhelming pressure.
At Fuller Life Concepts, we offer 10 session Mood Modifier program that supports compassionate, trauma-informed virtual therapy to help teens understand their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and regain confidence. Our goal is to create a safe space where teens feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with resilience and hope.

Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Depression in teens often doesn't look like sadness. It looks like irritability, a kid who sleeps constantly or not at all, grades slipping, headphones on and door closed, dropping the sport or the friend group or the thing they used to love. From the outside it can read as attitude or laziness. From the inside it usually feels like nothing is worth the effort.
I work with teens to understand what's underneath it, what's happened, what they're carrying, what they believe about themselves that isn't true. We look at the thought patterns that keep the weight in place, and build practical ways to move through a hard day rather than just wait it out.
My approach is warm and unhurried. Depression tends to convince a teen that no one really wants to hear it, so a lot of the early work is simply being someone who does. Over time, the aim is that your teen reconnects with themselves — with energy, with the things they used to enjoy, with some sense that the future is theirs.
If you're worried about your teen, that instinct is worth acting on. Reaching out doesn't mean things have gotten bad enough. It means you noticed.
