Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.
I understand the social stigmas that come with the label of being depressed and thus aim to help clients sort out their environmental, biological, and circumstantial factors while offering support and care through a very dark time in their lives.
If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today for a free consultation.

Depression
Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Depression can show up in subtle ways for high-functioning people. You may continue leading, creating, or meeting responsibilities while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. For founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals, depression often develops alongside chronic stress, burnout, and pressure to keep performing. Through trauma-informed therapy, narrative work, and nervous system regulation, we address the deeper patterns contributing to depression so you can reconnect with meaning, emotional steadiness, and a greater sense of vitality.

Depression
Dr. Ellen Brackup

Rather than thinking of depression as just a condition to get rid of, it can help to explore what the depression is trying to tell you at a deep level. That way, the pain of depression can be the doorway to transformation in your life.

Depression
Dr. Millie C. Astin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Depression can be disruptive to your life. Feeling down, not finding joy in the things you use to, overwhelming fatigue, not wanting to get out of bed, not sleeping (or sleeping too much) takes a toll. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for depression, I will help you fight the depression by identifying behaviors that increase (or decrease) depression and will teach you how to identify and modify thinking patterns that lead to and maintain depression.

Depression
Kelly Baez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
EMDR has been shown to be an effective intervention for depression. By addressing past traumas and/or negative experiences, EMDR helps you process your emotions and reframe negative beliefs so you can create a more positive outlook that lasts. While we will absolutely talk about strategies to support well being, EMDR may be a valuable tool in your journey towards healing and recovery.

Depression
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I view depression from a systemic perspective, looking at the client's entire life to establish what may be causing or exacerbating the client's depression symptoms. Then the client and I collaborate on goals to improve the client's mood and overall wellness. Treating depression I will always be using integrative therapy techniques because no one therapy is right for every aspect of a person's depression.

Depression

Depression
Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
f depression makes it hard to get out of bed, focus, or feel any joy—or even if it’s a quieter, persistent low—I understand how exhausting it can be. I work with teens and adults to create a supportive space where you can start to lift that heaviness, reconnect with your energy, and take small, manageable steps toward feeling steadier, more grounded, and more like yourself again.

Matthew Reeves
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CRC, NCC
We all cope with pain. When coping becomes destructive, we need to break the cycle of depression that feeds upon itself. I can help you address the cycle by understanding it, offering alternatives, and interrupting the painful patterns.

Depression can be very debilitating, however, there are ways to pull yourself out of the darkness and they don't necessarily need to be medications. I work to help clients learn coping and how to get out of the darkness without relying on meds beyond stabilization.
