Depression
James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
Sadness and stuckness can color a person's life in a deeply intractable way. While medication can be helpful with this, I believe that psychological work can lead to the deepest and most long-lasting changes, and minimize the unhappy side effects that often accompany long medication use. Forming a collaborative understanding of the emotional binds and impasses that have developed in a person's way of living can deeply free up energy and possibility and bring pleasure and interest back to living.

Depression
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.

Kenny Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Struggling with depression? I offer a comprehensive approach rooted in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help you manage symptoms and improve overall well-being. By integrating cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, I provide practical tools to navigate the complex emotions and challenges of depression.
In our structured sessions, you will learn to identify and challenge negative thought patterns, regulate emotions, and cultivate greater self-awareness and acceptance. Manageable homework assignments reinforce these skills, helping you make meaningful progress between sessions.
My approach also emphasizes building meaningful connections and setting healthy boundaries in relationships, contributing to a greater sense of support and fulfillment. Let's work together to help you overcome depression and lead a more fulfilling life.
