Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Depression can make even the things you love—like running—feel heavy, pointless, or exhausting. You might wake up drained before the day begins, struggle with motivation on training runs, lose interest in races or goals that once excited you, or carry a quiet sense that nothing matters as much anymore. Whether it’s persistent low mood, fatigue that rest doesn’t fix, feelings of worthlessness, or the “why bother?” spiral that hits after setbacks like injury or DNFs, depression steals energy, joy, and forward momentum.
In our sessions, we work together to understand what’s contributing to your depression and gently rebuild a sense of purpose and possibility. Using CBT to shift unhelpful thought patterns, ACT to reconnect with your values, DBT skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and movement-informed strategies (including how running and exercise can support brain health and mood), we create practical tools that fit your life as an athlete.
Many clients notice meaningful changes such as:
Increased energy and motivation to get back out on the trails.
A kinder inner voice that celebrates small wins instead of criticizing.
Better ability to manage low days without spiraling.
Renewed sense of meaning, self-worth, and direction in both running and daily life.
Improved consistency with self-care, training, and the things that matter most.
I also share helpful resources like the Self-Care Assessment and tools for building healthy routines that we can personalize together.
You don’t have to stay stuck in the fog. Depression is treatable, and even small steps can lead to feeling like yourself again—stronger, more hopeful, and ready to finish stronger. If you’re ready to start moving forward, I’d be honored to walk (and run) alongside you.

Depression is more than a temporary feeling of sadness or grief and can show up as consuming sadness, loss of interest in activities and exhaustion.Depression is not a sign of weakness or failure. You may be doing the best you can but depression can make you feel like it isn't good enough and that you'll never feel better. In our work together we'll explore what is at the root of your depression and we'll figure out how to get back to your old self.

Together, we’ll find manageable ways to reintroduce activity and connection, focusing on building the self-compassion needed to treat yourself with kindness. Our work together can help you rediscover your sense of purpose and move toward a life that feels meaningful and full.

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Depression can feel like walking through mud—everything takes more effort, joy feels out of reach, and even small tasks can seem overwhelming. Whether you're feeling numb, hopeless, exhausted, or just not like yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to go through it without support.
With nearly 20 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help people navigate depression using evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based strategies, along with Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work, and compassion-focused therapy. We’ll work together to gently uncover what’s underneath the heaviness, and find ways to reconnect you with purpose, meaning, and a sense of possibility.
You don’t have to pretend you’re fine here. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where your experience is honored, your story matters, and even small wins are worth celebrating. And yes, we might even find a few moments to laugh—because even in dark times, light still gets in.
If you're tired of feeling stuck, let’s talk. There’s a way forward, and I’d be honored to help you find it.
