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.

Online Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & Life Transitions -AZ, IL, OH
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC
Depression can make even the simplest parts of life feel heavy getting out of bed, staying focused, or feeling connected to the people you love. I provide a warm, steady, and non‑judgmental space to help you understand what’s beneath the sadness, numbness, or exhaustion you’ve been carrying. Using evidence‑based approaches like CBT and mindfulness based strategies, we work together to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, rebuild motivation, and strengthen emotional resilience. For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian based support to offer hope, grounding, and meaning during difficult seasons. You don’t have to navigate depression alone healing is possible, and support is here.

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.
