Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Depression is often described as sadness, but for many people, it feels more like disconnection—low energy, numbness, irritability, lack of motivation, or just moving through the day on autopilot. Things that used to feel manageable can start to feel heavy or pointless. And in a culture that pushes productivity and “pushing through,” depression is often misunderstood or minimized, especially when you’re still showing up on the outside. For many, there are also deeper layers—burnout, grief, chronic stress, identity struggles, or the impact of living in systems that feel depleting or invalidating.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t reduce depression to a checklist of symptoms. We work with you to understand how it’s showing up in your life and what’s contributing to it—emotionally, relationally, and contextually. From there, we take an active approach to building momentum in ways that are realistic and sustainable. This might include small, structured shifts in daily routines, reconnecting with parts of your life that feel meaningful, addressing thought patterns, and creating support systems that actually work for you. We also make space for the cultural and systemic factors shaping your experience, so you’re not carrying that weight alone. This is about helping you feel more connected, more supported, and gradually more like yourself again.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
Depression presents in many forms be it situational, seasonal, persistent or major. We will work to identify the triggers, reframe any faulty thinking that may be keeping you stuck and establish boundaries where necessary to limit the intensity of your symptoms. We will work to build up coping skills you are able to engage in most regularly at this time. If necessary we will thoughtfully process a combined approach of seeking out medication management.

Dr. Cierra Listermann
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSP-P
Depression can sometimes develop after prolonged stress, traumatic experiences, loss, or years of feeling disconnected from your own needs. It can impact your sense of identity, relationships, motivation, and hope for the future. I help clients explore the experiences and beliefs contributing to feelings of sadness, numbness, shame, or feeling stuck while processing the impact of trauma and developing new ways to reconnect with themselves.

Jourdan Brickey Self-Reclamation After Survival
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Depression often affects more than mood. It can impact your relationships, motivation, and sense of self. Therapy can provide a space to process what you're carrying and reconnect with hope, meaning, and the parts of yourself that may feel distant.

Cary is one of the most affluent suburbs in the Research Triangle, home to a high concentration of technology and pharmaceutical workers drawn by employers like SAS Institute and the broader Research Triangle Park economy, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by the particular stresses of high-achievement professional culture and a large transplant population navigating relocation. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, perfectionism, work-life balance, relationship difficulties, and the identity challenges of building a life in a community where many residents are far from extended family and long-term social networks. A well-developed private therapy sector serves Cary, and the proximity to Raleigh's larger market gives residents access to a wide range of specialties and modalities. The city's highly educated and professionally successful population tends toward an open and pragmatic attitude toward therapy.
