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.

Josie Munroe, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist
Depression is not a sign of weakness, and a "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" approach often does more harm than good. It's been said that depression is "the brilliant stop sign of the soul." When you're ready to heed its messages, wonderful change can occur.

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.

Alexis Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LMHC, LPC
I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my California Licensure (c;) I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present. You are not alone.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
According to research we have upwards of 70,000 thoughts a day. Most of them pass through us without so much as a “second thought”, but all are informing a sense of how we feel about ourselves, about the world we live in, about the abundance or the scarcity in our lives.
Our thoughts create our feelings and vice versa. For so many of us, “feelings” become an overwhelming, incapacitating part of our existence. What if you didn’t fear feelings? What if you had a clearer understanding of what thoughts had informed those feelings? These feelings and thoughts, which create anxiety, depression, worries, concerns or obsessions etc., can and must be dissected and understood. With insight and understanding comes relief. Situational pressures, breakups, job loss or confusion, a sense of purposelessness, become existential crisis.
In my work with individuals we closely examine the myriad of thoughts that pass through you daily. How do they make you feel? How do they inform your behaviors? It can occur in opposite as well. “I got a feeling he didn’t like me”. The feeling set up thought patterns of insecurity. Which comes first? How? Why? With empathy, insight and understanding, I work with clients to intervene in this process so that you are not just a firestorm of thoughts and feelings, but rather a mindful creation of what you want to feel. Making choices of what you want to think. What do you choose to believe about yourself? What is the narrative you have created for your life and is it accurate? Unpacking childhood memories and life experiences, understanding attachment complexities and desensitizing traumatic events that occur within our lives become primary objectives in the work. Processing in a more adaptive, healthy response with these relationships, traumas and experiences follow.
Together, with love, compassion and understanding, I gently help my clients discover how to live their best and fullest life, expressing the most authentic representation of self that one can be.
