Karen Petren
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Depression tells you that nothing will help. Depression tells you to give up. Depression tells you to hide out. That no one will get it. Together, we will turn depression on its ugly head and take your life back, one tiny step at a time. A confident and experienced therapist like myself will sometimes hold your hand and other times give you a nudge you when you need it. I have seen real improvement in the toughest situations. Life does get better.

Depression
Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is a space of contemplation, of deep rest, a space where the body, mind and spirit can hide from the loudly spinning world, and just take a break. And yet, it is the nature of life to grow, and we struggle to grow when in the stasis of depression. What purpose does our depression have? What is it trying to teach us? What is it protecting us from?

Depression
Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Do you feel like there is a dark cloud over you? Maybe you've tried to talk about your depression with friends or family. Maybe you've already tried therapy, and nothing seemed to work. Overtime, you start feeling bad for even talking about it. When it's shared, it can feel like you're causing people unneeded pain and suffering, so you keep it in and your isolate from others not because you don't love them or want to be around them but because you don't want to hurt them. If any of this resembles your experience, I want to start by acknowledging how hard this is and assure you it doesn't have to hurt this bad. For years now I've been helping client's shake their depression and rise above their "dark cloud." with a combination of inner frameworks and outer skills. Not only will I be giving you practical tools you can use today but we will also be working together to cultivate mindsets that lead to a happier more fulfilling life. Interested? Let's connect.

Depression
Christopher Schadt
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression is often a response to the emotion system being stifled or shut down. Many men experience depression in response to chronically repressed anger or other emotions that are not socially acceptable to express. Depression also arises out of a stifled desire for connection; once we understand the source of your depression, we can re-work those patterns that are keeping you stuck and help you to find more freedom in how you relate to yourself and others.
