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.

Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to treat depression can help you learn new ways to manage your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty about them. ACT encourages commit to actions aligned with your values, in hopes of creating a sense of purpose and direction. By emphasizing mindfulness and psychological flexibility, ACT helps individuals to live more fully in the present moment and to navigate depressive symptoms with greater resilience. This approach can reduce the impact of depression on daily life and improve overall mental health.

Dr. Steven J. Hanley
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sadness is part of the human condition. The causes of it are often more complicated than it sometimes seems at face value. Sometimes we don't have any clue why we are sad or depressed. I am here to help you talk about these feelings in a safe, empathic environment.

Depression can be such a debilitating and hopeless feeling. Often when we're depressed it can feel as if we are in a hole and there is no way out. And it can seem like any other view of things, other than the 'depressed' view, is not accurate, not real. So it can sometimes get to a point where we feel like there is no use in even trying to get better. This is where talking to a therapist who specializes in depression can help. I work with depression from several approaches, including: helping clients resolve the situation(s) that are contributing to their depression - teaching clients numerous ways to relieve the depressive negative thoughts that increase the depression - helping clients clear their uncomfortable body sensations and feelings that go along with depression - helping clients take do-able action steps, which help overcome the depression and isolation.
