Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and exhausting, and for many people it begins to color how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future. While diagnostic labels can sometimes be useful for describing symptoms, I believe they are only a starting point. What often matters more is understanding why the depression is present and what emotional, psychological, or relational factors may be contributing to it.
In my work with depression, I focus on helping clients explore the underlying drivers rather than treating depression as a fixed condition that simply needs to be managed. Depression often develops in response to loss, unmet needs, long-standing patterns of self-criticism, emotional suppression, trauma, or a sense of disconnection from meaning or purpose. Gaining insight into these factors can open space for compassion, understanding, and change.
I see my role as a collaborative partner — a kind of copilot — as clients begin to make sense of their experience and identify paths toward feeling better. When the roots of depression become clearer, hope often follows, along with a growing sense that there are steps that can be taken to improve how life feels. The goal is not just relief from symptoms, but a deeper understanding that supports lasting emotional well-being.

Colin Pickles
Psychologist, PsyD
Sometimes the hardest part of feeling depressed isn't just feeling sad, but also feeling exhausted and disconnected from the things you usually enjoy. I specialize in helping others to understand how their histories and internal narratives lead impact the ways that they feel and behave, as well as teaching strategies to change these patterns. We can also end sessions with specific ideas to try between sessions. Call me for a free phone consultation so we can decide if I'm the right fit for you!

Christopher McClendon
Counselor/Therapist, APC, NCC
Depression can result from unfinished business in the past, which seems to threaten current and future success. Sometimes we need someone to just listen to our experiences from our vantage point, without being too eager to fix the issue without first listening to the experience. Catharsis is a powerful tool when employed correctly.
