Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Being a human is hard. Who doesn't get depressed now and again? But what if it is more than that? You've been feeling a little down, then the day comes when you just cannot get out of bed, nothing sounds fun (not even the things that usually do), and you just can't quite get yourself to make that call or take that walk, even though you know it might help you to feel better. Then the day stretches to two days, then three, and it starts to feel like you will never feel "normal" again. These feelings are intense, and painful, and you do not have to suffer them alone. Call or email me today.

David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression is a challenging mental health condition that extends beyond momentary feelings of sadness, leading to a sustained sense of sorrow, disinterest in once-enjoyed activities, and difficulty with everyday tasks. It's not just an occasional down day; it's a continuous struggle that can persist. Symptoms can vary, potentially bringing about sleep or appetite changes, feelings of guilt, or even suicidal thoughts. As a therapist specializing in mindfulness and somatic-based interventions, I'm here to compassionately guide you. Depression is treatable, and through our therapeutic journey together, we'll harness the power of mindful awareness and body-centered techniques to foster resilience, self-compassion, and healing.

Fuller Life Concepts
Marriage and Family Therapist
Teen depression is more than occasional moodiness—it can affect sleep, motivation, school performance, friendships, and family relationships. Teens may appear withdrawn, irritable, overly tired, or lose interest in activities they once enjoyed. Some struggle silently with feelings of hopelessness, low self-worth, or overwhelming pressure.
At Fuller Life Concepts, we offer 10 session Mood Modifier program that supports compassionate, trauma-informed virtual therapy to help teens understand their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and regain confidence. Our goal is to create a safe space where teens feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with resilience and hope.
