Shannon Mick
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.

Michael Bernstein
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
While brief periods of low mood are a normal part of life, persistent depression lasts for weeks or months and can significantly disrupt daily functioning, manifesting through symptoms like loss of interest, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and feelings of worthlessness. Though its causes are often a complex mix of genetics, environment, and personality, depression is highly treatable. I offer a path to recovery through evidence-based psychotherapies—including CBT, Interpersonal Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy—combined with lifestyle changes or referrals for medication management when necessary.
