Depression
Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Depression rarely shows up alone. For many of my clients, it's tangled up with grief, a relationship that's shifted, or a version of themselves they've lost along the way. I work to understand what's underneath, not just the symptoms, so we can find a way back to connection, with yourself and with others.

Depression
Dr. Connie Stomper
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, EdD, DSS
I have approached depression in a multi-dimensional way, and am aware of different types of depression and different ways of working with those. Often it is what is beneath the depression that needs too be addressed as well as living through depression in self nurturing and caring ways.

Depression
Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics, Somatic Counseling & Bodywork
Counselor/Therapist, MS, CCST, HE, LMT
Depression is not a personal failure but rather a result from uncontrollable events and circumstances over time. We explore together slowly and gently so that nervous system regulation and safety can be strengthened. The body digests emotional overwhelm and burnout - two causes of depression - in small steps. Rest is a sacred act, and we explore ways to honor your need for rest and self-care.
Sessions explore the circumstances that may be influencing depression such as nutrition, microbiome, sleep, viral, mold, and environmental influences, so changes can be addressed to help improve your quality of life.

Depression
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.

Depression
Elnaz Mayeh (WellBeCounseling)
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, EMDR Trained
I support people struggling with depression, low motivation, and that heavy sense of disconnection that can make life feel stuck. My approach is both compassionate and action-oriented. Together, we’ll explore what’s weighing you down while finding small, meaningful steps to help you re-engage with life. I often use behavioral activation, a powerful approach that helps you rebuild energy and purpose through intentional action, even when it feels impossible to start. You don’t have to face the darkness alone, change begins with one small move forward, and I’m here to help you take it.

Depression
Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Depression is not simply sadness. It can emerge when grief has nowhere to go, anger has been turned inward, hope has repeatedly been disappointed, or a person has spent too long living disconnected from their needs, relationships, and sense of meaning. Treatment involves understanding what the depression may be communicating while restoring movement, connection, agency, and the capacity to experience life as something more than an obligation to endure.
