Depression
Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression may be described as feeling sad, melancholy, dismal, unhappy, miserable, or down. Many individuals may feel periodic sadness during a distressing situation or transition. Clinical depression is a mood disorder in which feelings of sadness, loss, anger, or frustration affect one’s life for a couple of weeks or longer. Anyone can develop depression, even kids. Clinical depression tends to manifest differently in children and adolescents than in adults.
Depression can appear as anger, irritation and discouragement, rather than feelings of sadness.
If depression is very severe, there may also be psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions.
Treatment for depression may include psychotherapy and/or medication. Either way, seek assistance from a professional psychologist immediately if you or someone you know may be suffering from depression. Hope is available.

Depression
John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
Depression is different than sadness. A degree of sadness is healthy and keeps frame on the other aspects of life that provide joy and connection. Depression is a clinical term for overwhelm that affects your relationships and interaction with the world. If you're identifying with Depression it's imperative that we get you help immediately, get you some support and turn things around.

Depression
Anat Sideman
Marriage and Family Therapist, JD, MA, LMFT
Symptoms of depression are the smoke that alerts us to an underlying fire. You may have experienced a tragedy, or a traumatic event. Perhaps your relationship is triggering pain, your marriage is in trouble, or your child is suffering. You may notice a gradual decline in your sense of wellbeing, problems sleeping, changes in appetite, difficulty concentrating, body aches, a growing sense of hopelessness or feeling that things are out of control. Whatever is causing your distress, you don’t have to manage it alone. Together, we can find kindness and compassion, create a safe space for your feelings, better understand your needs, prioritize your self-care, and identify tools that will help you feel more empowered and hopeful again.

Depression
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Depression is largely caused by isolation. The more connections you have and the more activities you do, the less depression symptoms you have. Low energy is a hallmark of depression and typically we don't have the energy to do the above, so we get into a negative spiral. Therapy can provide you with the support and encouragement you need so you can do the unnatural things we all need to do to stay out of that darkness. Some people try medication and if they want to, I can work closely with the doctor to monitor the effects of medication.
