Depression
Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
Much of my practice focuses on persons suffering from depression. Clients include college age students, young and middle-aged adults as well as the elderly. I engage a number of beneficial therapy modalities including: crisis intervention, psychoeducation, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic narrative, guided imagery and critical stress debriefing. Due to the high prevalance of cooccurence specifically anxiety, sleep disturbance and depression, integrative therapy modalities are employed. Every session utilizes Carl Rogers' famous client centered model and places priority on establishing a warm, safe, empathic environment conducive to achieving favorable outcomes and restoration.

Depression
Marcy Miller
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ph.D.
Depression can feel like a heaviness that settles into both mind and body—draining energy, narrowing perspective, and making even simple tasks feel difficult. Alongside this, many people carry a quiet but persistent sense of self-doubt or not being “enough,” often shaped by earlier experiences of criticism, loss, or disconnection.
Rather than viewing these experiences as signs of weakness, we’ll work to understand them as meaningful responses to what you’ve lived through. In therapy, we slow down and gently explore the emotional patterns, beliefs, and relational experiences that contribute to feeling stuck or disconnected.
Drawing from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and other evidence-based approaches, I support clients in reconnecting with underlying emotions, developing greater self-compassion, and building a more stable and affirming sense of self. Over time, this work can help you feel more engaged in your life, more connected to others, and more grounded in your own worth.

Depression
Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You may notice yourself feeling more sad and tearful than usual. Or, perhaps you feel numb and indifferent. Maybe you’re tired all the time, it’s difficult to enjoy things you used to, or completing everyday tasks feels insurmountable. Depression can look a little different for each person but one thing is probably clear: you want to feel better. Our work will involve identifying attainable steps toward revitalization so that you can begin tackling current challenges with a sense of direction and clarity. And perhaps more importantly, so that you can get in touch with the parts of your life that make it all worthwhile.

Lakeland is a central Florida city between Tampa and Orlando in Polk County, home to Florida Southern College—notable for its large collection of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture—and serving as a significant logistics and distribution hub where Amazon, Publix, and other large employers have major operations, with a mental health landscape shaped by the economic pressures of both industrial work and rapidly rising costs of living in Florida's growing central corridor. The city has a diverse population with significant Black and Latino communities, and Lakeland Regional Health's behavioral health programs serve the community alongside a private therapy sector. The area's geography between two major metro areas means residents can access the larger therapy markets of Tampa and Orlando for more specialist care. Common therapy concerns include economic and workplace stress in a logistics and distribution economy, anxiety, family and relationship difficulties, and the mental health challenges of a rapidly growing central Florida city where housing costs are outpacing wages for many working residents.
