Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, aren't enjoying life, or feel down, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats mood and related issues typically using Behavioral Activation and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Depression can make everything feel incredibly heavy—even simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and things you once enjoyed might not feel the same anymore (often known as anhedonia). Dr. Jenny Shields specializes in helping driven professionals move through depression, using evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and behavioral activation. Her approach is warm, highly personalized, and grounded in what research tells us really works. Dr. Shields partners with you to uncover what’s keeping you stuck, helping you reconnect to your values, rebuild your energy, and ultimately rediscover joy, clarity, and motivation in your life again.

Cheryl S Rubenstein
Psychologist, PhD
Depression has been referred to as, “The Black Dog.” It can be all consuming and requires a compassionate approach. Sometimes it is helpful to involve a psychiatrist to see if medication might be useful, but this is not always the case.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals experiencing depression in its many forms, from persistent low mood and loss of motivation to more complex, longstanding patterns of disconnection and hopelessness. Depression often impacts not just how someone feels, but how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future.
My approach is both compassionate and active. I focus on understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to depression, while also helping clients re-engage with their lives in meaningful, manageable ways. Together, we work to identify what may be keeping them stuck, build greater emotional awareness, and gradually restore a sense of agency, connection, and vitality.
I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without being overwhelmed, and supported without being pushed too quickly—allowing change to unfold in a way that is both sustainable and deeply felt.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Low mood that does not lift, loss of motivation, the heaviness of getting through the day. Depression has many causes and is best supported by a team that may include a medical doctor and a licensed mental health professional. Within that picture, RTT can be a powerful complement. It works at the subconscious level to find and update the beliefs that often sit underneath low mood, things like "I am not enough", "I do not matter" or "nothing I do will change anything". When those root beliefs shift, many clients describe feeling lighter and more able to engage with life again. If you are currently under medical care, please continue to work with your provider. I am happy to work alongside them.
