Donald Glenn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
Depression is common in today's world, but also surprisingly easy for both clients and therapists to miss in its more subtle presentations. With decades of experience treating depression, both medically and with therapy, I understand the more nuanced presentations of depression that are often misdiagnosed as other conditions. Similarly, many medical and mental health conditions are often missed due to being confused with a diagnosis of depression. Once identified and understood, depression can be effectively managed through a variety of therapeutic techniques.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Depression can feel like a disconnection from yourself, others, and the parts of life that once felt meaningful. I support clients in gently exploring what sits beneath feelings of sadness, numbness, or low motivation while also working to reduce the heaviness that can make daily life feel difficult. In our work together, we focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and reconnecting with a sense of purpose and self-compassion. My goal is to help you feel less alone in what you’re experiencing and to support you in gradually rebuilding energy, hope, and emotional balance.
