Be Heard Live Well
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
If you are experiencing the weight of depression, seeking psychotherapy can be a crucial step toward healing and recovery. Depression often brings about a persistent feeling of sadness, hopelessness, and a loss of interest in activities. In therapy, you will have a safe and confidential space to explore the roots of your depression, understand the contributing factors, and develop coping strategies. A skilled therapist can provide support, offer tools to manage negative thought patterns, and help you establish a personalized plan for moving forward. Psychotherapy can empower you to regain a sense of control, build resilience, and work towards a more fulfilling and emotionally balanced life. Taking this step acknowledges your strength and determination to overcome the challenges of depression, offering a pathway to renewed hope and well-being.

Shauna Pollard
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Do you feel overwhelmed? Are you stuck in the same cycle just trying to get from day to day? Are you experiencing a transition that never seems to end?
You may have noticed that you are not coping in the healthiest of ways. Perhaps you’re starting to disconnect and distance yourself from others— avoiding invites from friends or family, letting calls go to voicemail and ignoring texts for weeks. Not to mention, you also feel worn out and no amount of sleep seems to help.
There’s still time to make some changes. You’ve always been there for other people, but now it’s time to show up for yourself.
I’ve worked with hundreds of clients on major to minor life issues to provide clarity, relief, and understanding that allows for a way forward. I would love to join you on your journey.
Being depressed sucks, and you are probably reading this because you suspect that there's a way to feel much better than you currently feel. Whether you've been depressed for years and years or this is your first time, I can help.
Big changes don’t happen all at once, but in a short time you can take action towards building the life that you want. Therapy can help you start to understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck and take steps to help you feel happier and more content.
Trained in research supported therapies and yet down-to-earth and relatable, I use the tools and strategies that are right for you based on your unique needs. Schedule an appointment today.

Eric Weinstein
Life Coach, Hypnosis and NLP, shamanic healing, Energy Psychology (including "tapping"), Voice Dialogue
As a non-licensed practitioner, I cannot legally claim to work with depression (because it’s a diagnosable condition). That said, I’ve successfully helped a number of depressed clients (officially diagnosed or not) who’ve been in conventional treatment for years. I also speak from personal experience, as a guy whose family was affected by undiagnosed depression.
I believe the “chemical imbalance” model that the pharmaceutical companies use is simplistic. It reflects our society’s love of easy answers, how little therapy insurance companies want to pay for, and the over-specialization of health care, which results in practitioners who don’t understand how mind, body, and spirit fit together.
A holistic long-term solution can be as simple as diet, herbs, and supplements (some as effective as prescriptions, without the side-effects). Or it might include coaching to develop healthy relationships and solve problems that are getting you down, improving self-esteem, learning healthy habits and positive coping mechanisms, and healing and energy treatments to change the negative messages you’ve absorbed through life.

Hypnosis Silver Spring
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapist certified by International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association
I will be interested in exactly what you are experiencing - sadness, a sense of doom, overwhelm, fatalism, listlessness and lack of motivation - rather than a diagnosis. Then we work directly with the thoughts and feelings that are troubling you and resolve them at the emotional, unconscious level.
