Tam Nguyen-Louie
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I dedicate my practice to helping individuals navigate the heavy and exhausting landscape of depression. I work closely with my clients to uncover the root causes of their emotional pain while teaching them practical, evidence-based strategies to manage their symptoms. Together, we focus on breaking negative thought patterns, processing difficult emotions, and slowly rebuilding a sense of purpose and connection. My goal is to provide a compassionate, safe space where healing feels possible and you never have to carry the weight alone.

My approach to depression counseling is based on compassion, empathy, and a deep respect for you. I believe that every person is unique, and that your experiences and emotions are valid and deserving of attention and care.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
When navigating the "deep end" of Depression, we use somatic focusing to find the small, flickering pilot light of your own testimony. As a clinician who understands the weight of systemic harm, I don't just "fix" your mood; I partner with you to witness the history that brought you here. Together, we move toward a reclamation of hope that is grounded in reality, not platitudes.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I work with children, adolescents, and adults with depression by considering with you how intensely hopeless or despairing feelings may affect your thoughts and beliefs about yourself, others, and the world around you; how to regulate feelings of hopelessness and worry, and which factor(s) may be contributing to your depression. I also work with you on behavioral activation for depression strategies to support motivation and self-care.

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
Depression is highly treatable, with many of the techniques from therapies like CBT or IFS. Simply talking and processing depression makes it start to heal. Sometimes your depression may be situational instead of biological. Each persons depression is different, requiring a differing approach.
