Depression
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Depression isn’t just sadness—it can feel like a fog that dulls your motivation, isolates you from others, and makes even simple tasks feel insurmountable. Whether you're experiencing persistent low mood, burnout, or a loss of purpose, I offer a structured, evidence-based approach to help you reconnect with meaning and momentum.
My treatment integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral Activation, and Schema Therapy to address both the symptoms and the underlying patterns that sustain depression. We’ll explore how your thoughts, behaviors, and core beliefs interact—and develop practical strategies to restore energy, engagement, and emotional clarity. For clients navigating complex transitions or existential concerns, I also incorporate Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and values-based decision tools.
Therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly struggling behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that supports both immediate relief and long-term resilience.

Everlight recovery
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, spiritual certified, D.D.I.V, D.H.L
Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel heavy. You might feel numb, hopeless, disconnected, or just not like yourself. It’s more than sadness — it’s a struggle that affects your energy, sleep, relationships, and self-worth.
In therapy, we’ll work together to gently explore what’s underneath the pain, and help you reconnect with yourself. You don’t have to go through this alone — healing is possible, and support is here.

Depression
Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
A common feature of depression is a pervasive sense of hopelessness, which aims to protect depressed individuals from working toward change, failing, and then being disappointed. My initial goal when working with depressed clients is to foster a sense of hope and a belief in their ability to change, such that clients will feel empowered to pursue their goals and live their lives to the fullest extent.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting patients experiencing depression, I offer a compassionate and empathetic space for them to explore their feelings and experiences.

Depression
Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression often reflects more than sadness—it can signal unmet emotional needs, patterns in relationships, or early experiences that still shape your life. In our work, we gently explore what your feelings are communicating while offering a steady, supportive presence. By approaching depression with curiosity and care, it can become a doorway to understanding yourself more deeply and finding renewed connection and meaning.
