Dr. Felicia Jackson
Psychologist, PhD
When you're struggling with depression, even everyday tasks can feel exhausting. You may find yourself withdrawing from activities, losing motivation, or feeling disconnected from the things that once brought you joy. Therapy can help you understand the patterns contributing to how you're feeling, rebuild momentum through manageable steps, and reconnect with activities, relationships, and goals that bring meaning to your life.

Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
Deep sadness and the 'heaviness' of depression are frequently the shadows cast by unresolved grief. My practice provides a clinical sanctuary for those navigating the profound emptiness that follows loss. By integrating Dr.-level psychotherapy with specialized Grief Recovery techniques, I help you move through the fog of clinical depression toward a place of meaning and renewal. We don't just talk about the pain; we use evidence-based tools to help your mind and body find their way back to the light.

Jenelle N. Ashley
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP, CCTP
Depression is more than simply feeling sad. The thoughts and feelings that can go along with depression can significantly impact our livelihood. Our sessions will focus on weakening the fusion with some of these negative thoughts that fuel depression while focusing on what's important, our values and committed action.
