Santa Barbara, California therapist: Allie Michie, MS, marriage and family therapist
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.

Santa Barbara, California therapist: Dr. Trevor Alleman, psychologist
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.

Santa Fe, New Mexico therapist: Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling, counselor/therapist
Depression

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling

Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
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.
