Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression can make life feel heavy—like you’re moving through the day with less energy, less hope, and less connection to yourself or others. It isn’t just sadness; depression can also involve numbness, shame, self-criticism, disconnection, and feeling stuck. Therapy can help you feel less alone, understand what you’re carrying, and begin to reconnect with motivation and meaning. Together, we work to understand the deeper emotional roots of depression and the patterns that keep it going, so you can build a more compassionate relationship with yourself and create lasting change.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression is so much more than just feelings of sadness. Sometimes it's emptiness, anger (rage even), and grief. It's like the world around us is still moving, but we have a dark cloud over us. If you are experiencing depression, know that you did nothing wrong. Depression consists of intense and painful feelings that often communicate something to us that something isn't right. Whether you're learning to understand your depression, figuring out if there are ways to manage it, and/or wanting to make some changes to feel better, I'm here to support you.

Dr. Maxwell Rappoport
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When working with depression, I integrate Behavioral Activation, CBT, and elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to address low mood, hopelessness, and loss of motivation. Treatment focuses on restoring balance, rebuilding meaning, and reconnecting with activities and relationships that bring fulfillment.

Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Depression can show up in subtle ways for high-functioning people. You may continue leading, creating, or meeting responsibilities while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. For founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals, depression often develops alongside chronic stress, burnout, and pressure to keep performing. Through trauma-informed therapy, narrative work, and nervous system regulation, we address the deeper patterns contributing to depression so you can reconnect with meaning, emotional steadiness, and a greater sense of vitality.
