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.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I assist individuals dealing with depression by using a blend of psychodynamic insights, evidence based practices and a strength-based approach. Fundamentally, I use a psychodynamic lens to help the client explore underlying emotional conflicts and past experiences that may contribute to their current struggles, fostering deeper self-awareness and insight. Regarding evidence based practices, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)to help to address negative thought patterns and behaviors, providing clients with practical tools to manage their symptoms effectively. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can also be helpful to incorporate into treatment given that depression often involves avoiding situations, people, or activities that could trigger negative emotions. ACT helps individuals confront and engage with these avoided aspects of life in a mindful and values-driven manner, reducing avoidance and increasing overall life engagement. By focusing on clients’ inherent strengths, passions and past successes, I also help them re-build a sense of self-efficacy, confidence and resilience which can impact and improve depressive symptoms. Lastly, I commonly develop collaborative relationships with clients physicians in order to offer a more integrated treatment plan that supports the clients healing.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views depression not as a permanent flaw, but as a complex emotional state often linked to "stuck" grief, lost purpose, or silenced parts of the self.
Depression can feel like a heavy fog that disconnects you from your vitality and sense of meaning. With over 35 years of expertise, Michael looks beyond the surface symptoms of fatigue and low mood to explore the deeper relational and developmental roots of this "stuckness." Often, depression is a signal of unresolved loss or internal conflicts that have been pushed out of conscious awareness. By working within a psychodynamic and Jungian framework, he helps you reconnect with your authentic self and rediscover purpose, moving from a state of mere survival toward a life that feels genuinely lived.
