Depression
The Joy of You
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
Depression causes persistent feelings of sadness and a loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable. In cognitive therapy, you’ll learn about symptoms like intrusive thoughts related to trauma. The focus is on processing the experience, questioning negative self-thinking, and reframing those thoughts.

Depression
Restoration Counseling Ministries
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
Depression can suck the life out of a person. It can take away motivation to do things that previously were very important. It is a lot like a heavy blanket that covers a person's whole body, making a darkness that can seem overwhelming. Fortunately, with effective counseling, the light begins to shine again and the weights can come off!

Depression
Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have been struggling with various symptoms of depression. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Depression
Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
The word "depression" is often used by most everyone in our culture. As such, many people tend to equate sadness or feeling blue with being "depressed." One of the chief preliminary understandings I bring to the table is skill in diagnosing Major Depressive Disorder from having worked as a mobile crisis counselor, having seen many clients with suicidal ideation over the years. I understand that Major Depression is no something one can easily will away by just doing a bit more exercise or trying to think positively. I realize that clients who live with depression often have people in their lives telling them to get over it, move on, pray it away etc. In addition to not using these platitudes with clients, I recognize that people living with MDD often need a combined approach of therapy and medication. If you have never tried meds or seen a psychiatrist, I will help you figure out whether you should explore this. Also, given my clinical background, I do not overreact to clients having suicidal thoughts or severe depression, so these topics can be talked about openly with me without fear of me operating from a reactive stance.
