Depression
TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
I understand Depression and Depressive Disorders (including Psychotic Depression) as the result of loss. It is the mind/body's response to a normal but difficult aspect of all of our lives. Things get depressed and depressing when we all experience loss. This can be any kind of loss: relationships, family, work, dreams, friendships, school achievements, and/or something special to us. At times Depression can overwhelm any of us. I treat Depression and Depressive Disorders with both mind and body: analysis one or twice per week, supplements for the brain, diet and exercise, and the creation of "flow experiences" for the patient. Connection, attachment, and trust are very important here in the therapeutic relationship as part of the healing process. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Depression
Tanya Samuelian
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Even when life looks successful on the outside, you can still feel empty, numb, or weighed down on the inside. Many high-functioning individuals push through the day but feel disconnected from joy, purpose, or themselves. In therapy, we’ll explore the emotional patterns behind the heaviness and work toward renewed connection, self-compassion, and meaning—on your terms.

Depression
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Depression can quietly reshape how one experiencex time, meaning, and connection, dulling what once felt so vibrant. In psychoanalytic work, we listen closely to what the depression may be holding, including unspoken losses, internal conflicts, and ways of relating to yourself that developed long ago. As these inner landscapes are explored, many people find a gradual reawakening of vitality, depth, and a sense of purpose that feels earned rather than forced.

Depression
Dana Fogel-Stark
Therapist, M.S., LMFT
Depression is a very common struggle for many. It is my belief that Depression is best treated using both psychodynamic as well as cognitive Behavioral therapy. CBT is effective in helping clients identify the relationship between their thoughts and negative mood therefore learning to modify their thought process in order to improve feel better and improve their mood. Psychodynamic therapy helps clients explore their emotions and identify feelings that they may not be aware of. The combination of both orientations tends to be very effective in treating Depression.

Santa Clarita is a large suburban city north of Los Angeles in the Santa Clarita Valley — one of the primary bedroom communities for the entertainment industry, with a significant population of production workers, crew members, and support staff whose careers are tied to the cycles of film and television production. The city's family-oriented, relatively conservative character contrasts with the precarious employment reality of many of its entertainment-connected residents, and therapists frequently address creative career anxiety, the boom-bust psychology of production employment, and the identity challenges of supporting roles in an industry that prizes visibility. Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Santa Clarita's suburban sprawl and car-dependent layout contribute to social isolation themes that therapists encounter frequently.
