Anxiety and depression go together. Anxiety makes us stuck and we become unable to act. This leads to depression as we are not able to have the life we want. Identifying activities that will rejuvenate us will be the work in therapy.

Brian Swope

Therapy and medication are shown to have the greatest results in overcoming depression. Many times a period of sadness or feeling depressed are more about the circumstances a person finds themself in. With an eye to potential needs beyond the scope of therapy, uncovering the root of the issue and making changes to the system you find yourself in will be our focus.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Depression can feel like a dense, dark, and heavy blanket that weighs us down, sucks the joy out of life, impairs concentration and focus, leads us to question why we are living and if the hardship is worth it, makes us feel stuck, and confuses our brains into believing that we are worthless and that the negative feelings will last forever. Therapy can be essential in reducing symptoms, shifting the "stories" we tell ourselves about ourselves, more effectively coping with loss and upset, learning self-care, managing and healing from trauma, and shifting perspective so that we can feel better and develop lasting changes.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
This isn’t just sadness. This is what happens when emotional abuse, chronic stress, and toxic relationships wear down your nervous system, your spirit, and your sense of self.
If you’re feeling exhausted, anxious, emotionally numb, or stuck in a fog you can’t seem to shake—you're not alone. I specialize in helping high-functioning women who are navigating narcissistic abuse, emotional manipulation, or covert domestic violence. You may be parenting with a narcissist, going through a high-conflict divorce, managing post-separation abuse, or living with someone who controls, gaslights, or isolates you while the outside world sees “a nice guy.” You might be parallel parenting, walking on eggshells, or trying to hold it all together for your kids and your career—but inside, you feel like you’re slowly disappearing.
Depression in this context often doesn’t look like staying in bed. It looks like over-functioning. Pushing through. Smiling when you're silently breaking.
It looks like feeling guilty for being angry. Questioning your reality. Mourning a version of your life that never happened.
This is emotional abuse. It’s a form of domestic violence that doesn’t always leave visible bruises—but it leaves deep, lasting pain. And it’s not just affecting your mood—it’s affecting your mind, body, and ability to parent, work, and feel anything at all.
If you’ve been searching for terms like:
high-functioning depression
burnout from narcissistic abuse
co-parenting with a narcissist
divorcing a narcissist
emotional abuse in relationships
post-separation abuse
parallel parenting after domestic violence
gaslighting and depression
…this is where it starts to make sense.
You don’t need to prove your pain to get help. You don’t need a diagnosis to deserve support.
You need a safe space to exhale, unpack the invisible wounds, and begin the slow, steady work of healing.
I’m here to walk with you—step by step—as you move from surviving to thriving.

Philadelphia Art Therapy Associates
Art Therapist, MA, ATR-BC, LPC
It's natural to feel sad and have negative thoughts! When we lose control of negative thoughts, there can be devastating impacts on relationships and careers, not to mention your own health and safety. There are many reasons why you may grapple with depression, not the least of which may be your family of origin, your wiring, or present day triggers like relationship or employment problems, loss/grief, loss of control, or stress, among a myriad of other things. For the client who is motivated to feel and live better, our approach can be a powerful process. First, we explore with you the origins of your depression. We identify your common patterns and predictable triggers. Longstanding depression and family issues or trauma may need psychotherapy to work them though and gain resolution. Simultaneously, we utilize CBT coping skills instruction to develop new resilient perspectives, thought patterns, and coping skills. You will also learn positive replacement actions you can use to baby-step yourself to a sense of wellness. Our therapists have been treating depression for decades. We know that initiating an action step to get help for depression can be hard. We're here for you. If you muster energy for one small bit of self-care today, give us a call or email! We'd love to help.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression can be episodic or chronic. We need to understand what your depression is built out of. What memories, thoughts, and feelings contribute to a narrative in your life and what daily routines support the ongoing feeling of depression.
