Depression
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.

Depression can impact every aspect of life, making even simple tasks feel overwhelming. For some, it may stem from loss, trauma, chronic stress, or difficult life circumstances; for others, it can feel difficult to explain. We work collaboratively with clients to understand their experiences, reconnect with their strengths, and create pathways toward healing, meaning, and hope while honoring the cultural and personal contexts that shape their lives.

Depression
Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Having treated hundreds of people struggling with depression and major depressive disorder, I would offer that I am an expert in helping roll back depression symptoms. I began my career as an art therapist in an outpatient center and the majority of my clients were young adults and teens with depression symptoms. A cornerstone of my graduate work was to use art therapy to help people with depression to express themselves in art media. Now as a seasoned experienced therapist, I have been educated with dozens of techniques to help eliminate feelings and symptoms of depression.

Depression
Summer Stewart, PsyD
Pre-Licensed Professional, PsyD
Feeling numb, tired, or just not like yourself? Depression can feel like a heavy fog—making it hard to get through the day, connect with others, or find joy in the things you used to love. If you're feeling stuck, unmotivated, or overwhelmed by sadness, you're not alone. Therapy can help you make sense of what you're feeling, find relief, and slowly reconnect with hope and yourself again. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone.

Joliet is a city southwest of Chicago in Will County with a complex character that blends post-industrial working-class heritage, significant suburban growth, and a disproportionate association with the correctional system—the Stateville Correctional Center and Joliet's former prison are among the most prominent landmarks, and the city has a large population connected to criminal justice employment, incarceration, and reentry. The city's population is racially diverse, with significant Black and Latino communities, and economic inequality creates meaningful variation in access to mental health care across different neighborhoods. Local hospitals and community providers offer behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those with the means to access it. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, trauma, family stress, and the particular challenges of reentry and the psychological weight of living in a community shaped by its proximity to mass incarceration.
