Chicago, Illinois therapist: Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC, psychologist
Depression

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC

Psychologist, LP, PhD
We approach depression as a complex, multifaceted experience that cannot be reduced to a single cause or treated with a one-size-fits-all method. Each person’s depression is shaped by a unique interplay of biological, psychological, relational, and environmental factors, and we tailor our work accordingly. Our approach is integrative and draws from several evidence-based therapeutic orientations. From Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that may be maintaining depressive symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) informs our focus on helping clients develop psychological flexibility, build a different relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings, and reconnect with what matters most to them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical skills for managing intense emotions, increasing distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Schema Therapy allows us to explore and work through deeper, longstanding patterns rooted in early life experiences that often underlie chronic or recurring depression. Rather than applying these approaches rigidly, we integrate them in a way that fits each individual’s needs, goals, and values. Our aim is not only to reduce symptoms, but to support clients in building a more meaningful, resilient, and self-compassionate way of living.

Chicago, Illinois therapist: Dr. Daniel Cantor, psychologist
Depression

Dr. Daniel Cantor

Psychologist, Psy. D.
Depression can be harrowing because the energy of life feels inaccessible and the joy of even basic activities is so faint that everything becomes meaningless. In therapy the lost energy can be regained and activities of life will regain their dynamic quality. Sometimes its a powerful act to let a therapist into the view of life your depression is creating. Even a small step toward seeking help can empower you to complete the whole journey of restoration.

Evanston, Illinois therapist: Mariko Roberts, counselor/therapist
Depression

Mariko Roberts

Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCPC
Depression is more than just sadness — it can quietly erode your motivation, strain your relationships, and make even small tasks feel impossible. I help clients move beyond simply surviving to understanding the patterns driving their depression and building real tools for lasting emotional balance. My goal is to help you reclaim a sense of hope, clarity, and to start feeling like yourself again.

Depression

Margo Tirado MA LCPC

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Depression can feel like a silent, heavy weight—but having someone who can hold space and hope for you can be profoundly healing. I combine insight therapy, journaling, light therapy, and other supportive practices to help my clients gently explore their inner world, process emotions, and find moments of relief and renewed hope.
