Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
I treat symptoms of depression with a through a therapy called, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is a unique form of psychotherapy that emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and embracing thoughts and feelings instead of attempting to control or avoid them. While the concept of accepting even the harshest experiences might appear counterintuitive, practicing radical acceptance can mitigate the additional suffering caused by avoidance strategies and can paradoxically diminish their intensity.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and difficult to put into words. In a culture that often encourages pushing feelings aside, it can be hard to make space for what’s really there. Together, we slow down and make room for your emotions by approaching them with curiosity rather than avoidance so they can be understood, processed, and begin to shift over time.

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.
