Therapist
Depression is one of the most common reasons people enter therapy. Stress, tragedy, long periods of overwork, and lack of self-care can all prompt depression. It can happen during life’s happiest moments too. From the birth of a child to new jobs or relationships, life transitions and change can bring about feelings of depression. Depression can feel confusing and hopeless. Luckily, there are excellent treatments for depression that can create real and lasting change.

Mind Body Connections
Counselor/Therapist
If you are struggling with depression we will address this from a holistic perspective. We will help you determine if coping skills alone can manage the symptoms or if a consultation with an MD is more warranted. If your depression is severe then we will guide you to a higher level of care.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Depression can feel lonely and make daily tasks feel difficult to approach or complete. Symptoms of major depression may include sadness and withdrawal, irritability, loss of enjoyment, and changes with concentration, appetite and sleep. I help clients explore the challenges they are facing, identify goals, and develop a plan to reduce how depression impacts daily functioning.

Allison Lobel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with children, teens, and adults who are struggling with depression, whether it feels like persistent sadness, loss of motivation, or a sense of disconnection from daily life. My approach combines insight-oriented exploration with practical strategies, supporting clients in making sense of their experiences, easing self-criticism, and fostering greater resilience, self-compassion, and hope for the future.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Everything takes more effort than it should. Getting out of bed. Returning texts. Caring about things you used to care about. From the outside your life might look fine, but inside you're running on empty and wondering when you started feeling so disconnected from yourself. Depression lies to you. It tells you nothing will help, that you've always been this way, that you're a burden for even talking about it. We know how to work with depression, how to help you find your way back to yourself without pretending it's as simple as thinking positive thoughts. This is slow, honest work, and we'll be with you for it. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression is not sadness. Sadness moves. Depression is what happens when a person has been cut off from the things that would allow them to feel anything at all — desire, anger, grief, want. It is a withdrawal from the full range of being alive, and it often began as protection. Something was too much, and the system shut down. The work is not to cheer you up. The work is to find out what got buried and whether it is safe, now, to feel it.
