Wayne Ayers
Psychologist, PhD
When people are depressed they often have over focused on a few key details of their life and have forgotten about the larger picture of who they are. Often the very act of trying to understand "what is wrong with me" maintains the depressive thinking, keeping the negative hamster wheel going. We will bring cognitive skills and mindfulness interventions to work on your mood and thinking. We will take a holistic approach to understanding what function the depression plays in your life and what is being overlooked that keeps the depression in place. Through patience and compassion we will reach an understand ing of what causes and maintains the depressive mood.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Depression can make life feel muted - relationships grow distant, motivation fades, and the world loses color. My approach looks beyond symptoms to the emotional and relational patterns that keep you feeling stuck or alone. Together, we uncover how attachment, self-criticism, and unmet needs shape your experience of sadness and disconnection. Whether depression has followed loss, betrayal, or chronic stress, therapy offers a path back to clarity, steadiness, and genuine connection - with yourself and with those you love.

Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Depression can make life feel heavy, disconnected, or as though you're simply going through the motions. It often leaves people feeling isolated, hopeless, or like they've lost touch with themselves. Therapy provides a space to gently reconnect with your emotions, understand what may be keeping you stuck, and rediscover a greater sense of vitality, meaning, and possibility.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Depression can feel like disconnection—from yourself, from others, or from the life you once imagined. You may feel emotionally numb, hopeless, exhausted, self-critical, unmotivated, or stuck in painful patterns that no longer feel workable. Together, we will explore not only symptom relief, but also the deeper emotional, relational, and life experiences contributing to your suffering. Therapy offers an opportunity to better understand these patterns while creating greater self-awareness, relief, and possibility. For some clients, I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), thoughtfully integrated with ongoing therapy, preparation, and integration work.

Marina Rozenberg, MD
Therapist, MD
Episodes of depression are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, the loss of ability to experience pleasure from activities or social connections, and feelings of guilt and low self-esteem. These can be triggered by painful life events or can occur as a recurring pattern from early in life. Although genetics can contribute to your vulnerability toward developing depression, painful early relationships and unprocessed emotional pain are frequently uncovered when treating depression with psychotherapy. From a somatic point of view, restricted breathing and held-back aggression can often be seen. Together we will explore some of these root causes and bodily patterns that perpetuate the sadness, low energy and hopelessness that can underlie and contribute to depression.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with depression, I take a compassionate and integrative approach that meets you where you are. We explore how depressive patterns may be rooted in early experiences, unspoken emotions, or questions of purpose and meaning. I draw from psychodynamic and parts work to help you understand how different parts of you may be coping or protecting you, even when you feel stuck. Through somatic practices, we tune into the body to gently reconnect with vitality and internal cues. Alongside this deeper work, we also develop practical strategies to support your system—bringing in care, structure, and maintenance during times when motivation or energy is low. The goal isn’t to fix you, but to build a more compassionate and supportive relationship with yourself and your experience.

Staten Island's suburban character and strong Italian-American and Eastern European heritage shape a therapy culture that has historically carried some skepticism about mental health treatment, even as demand has grown substantially. The borough was among the hardest hit in New York City by the opioid epidemic, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery, grief, and trauma from loss remain a central part of the community's mental health infrastructure. Staten Island University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while private practices are concentrated in Stapleton, Todt Hill, and the North Shore. Many residents also access therapy in New Jersey or Manhattan, reflecting the borough's geographic position at the outer edge of the city.
