Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Depression is often misunderstood, thought to be the same as sadness or grief. While there are certainly similarities, depression has a different quality to it. Depression can make you feel like you have no life spark. It can make you feel like time has stopped. It can feel like it is taking over your life. Depression may be primarily organic, due to a chemical imbalance, or it may be primarily situational, or it can be a combination of both. Therapy can be very helpful for a person experiencing depression. It provides a place where things that are hard to talk about can be worked through. Many times, past trauma, as well as current situations, contribute to depression. Over time, we may get into habits of thought, feeling, and behavior that also contribute to depression. Even dietary habits can contribute. I use a holistic approach with psychodynamic underpinnings to look at past history, past trauma, beliefs, thoughts, feelings and behavioral patterns, and health and self-care habits to help clients address their depression.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals experiencing depression in its many forms, from persistent low mood and loss of motivation to more complex, longstanding patterns of disconnection and hopelessness. Depression often impacts not just how someone feels, but how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future.
My approach is both compassionate and active. I focus on understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to depression, while also helping clients re-engage with their lives in meaningful, manageable ways. Together, we work to identify what may be keeping them stuck, build greater emotional awareness, and gradually restore a sense of agency, connection, and vitality.
I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without being overwhelmed, and supported without being pushed too quickly—allowing change to unfold in a way that is both sustainable and deeply felt.

David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my psychotherapy for depression, I help you break the cycle of low energy and persistent sadness by identifying and reframing the automatic negative thoughts that weigh you down. I utilize evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and behavioral activation to support you in gradually re-engaging with rewarding activities and restoring your daily functioning. By teaching you practical coping skills, I work alongside you to build a sense of hope and increase your long-term resilience against future episodes.
