Depressive disorders and mood disorders are addressed by therapists through evidenced based treatments such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
Using Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavorial Therapy, Psychodynamic approach, and Narrative Therapy, I help you alleviate depressive symptoms, develop a healthy, happy sense of self, and create a new life narrative of joy and meaning.
Depression can be debilitating, impacting all areas of our life. As part of your treatment team I will utilize evidence based interventions to help reduce symptoms and help you improve your ability to cope.
Depression can be a debilitating and overwhelming experience, but it is treatable. As a therapist, I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and interpersonal therapy (IPT) which have been proven to be effective in treating depression.
CBT is a form of therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to their depression. IPT, on the other hand, focuses on addressing and resolving interpersonal relationship problems that may be contributing to the depression.
In therapy sessions, we will work together to understand the underlying causes of your depression and develop strategies to manage your symptoms. I will provide a safe and supportive environment for you to share your thoughts and feelings, and help you gain a better understanding of yourself.
If you or someone you know is struggling with depression, I encourage you to reach out for help. Together, we can work towards improving your mental health and overall well-being.
Whether you're dealing with depression or postpartum depression, I'm here to support you in identifying the patterns that contribute to your feelings and help you feel unstuck. Together, we can work towards renewed hope, change your thinking patterns, and develop effective behavioral strategies. I offer evidence-based techniques to improve your mood, enhance coping skills, and foster resilience. Let’s join forces to address depressive symptoms and illuminate a brighter tomorrow together.
From the first counseling session, we will work together to address and begin to understand together the source of your specific concerns and issues in order for you to deal with your depressive, anxious or confusing emotional feelings.
Anyone can become depressed. It does not matter on age, socioeconomic status, job/career, or stage of life. Depression is curable, and we need to find the root cause.
Marriage and Family Therapist, D.Min., LMFT, AAMFT-S, CT, CFS, CEAP
In my 8 years in a psychiatric hospital, I worked with numerous patients who were admitted for major depression and participated regularly with other therapists in our two-week depression group program. I have also worked with numerous clients in an outpatient setting who presented with depression, including some who also had PTSD & anxiety disorders.
Depression can be challenging to overcome, especially by oneself. In fact, we know that depression is never meant to be tackled alone, which is why we come alongside all of our clients battling depression and help them finally start to become victorious over this struggle because they have a team of caring and dedicated professionals to walk with them through it.

The cycle of depression ebbs and flows and can feel overwhelming at times. It is completely natural to seek the help and support of a professional to develop skills that can aid in managing such in healthy ways. I also offer support to family members of loved ones experiencing depression.
