Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Depression is not just sadness. It is the absence of motivation, pleasure, and hope. It is canceling plans you actually wanted to keep, going through the motions at work or school, and feeling like a version of yourself you do not recognize. For teens, it can look like irritability, withdrawal, or declining grades. For adults, it often hides behind functionality - you keep going, but nothing feels like it means anything. Therapy creates a space to understand what is underneath the depression and start building a path toward feeling like yourself again.

Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression can feel like a loss of energy, motivation, or interest in things you used to enjoy. It might show up as feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or hard on yourself. I work with teens and young adults to better understand what they’re experiencing and develop realistic, supportive ways to cope. Together, we focus on small, meaningful steps to help you feel more engaged, hopeful, and reduce the emotional weight that it can feel like you are carrying.

Ashton Burdick
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, NCC, LCMHC
Depression makes it hard to do every day things like getting out of the bed, putting on makeup, & going to work or class. Progress towards long term goals can feel impossible. Feeling down, and not knowing how to change it can get in the way of building the life you want. Together we can practice skills that can help you break the cycle of depression, improve your mood, question negative thoughts and self talk, and create the life you want. I enjoy helping women in their 20-40s & animal care professionals learn skills to manage depression & creating the life they want.

Joel Schmidt
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor
Depression can make even the smallest tasks feel heavy and disconnect you from the things you care about. I help clients gently reconnect with meaning, motivation, and self-compassion—without forcing toxic positivity or quick fixes. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we focus on small, purposeful steps that help you move through the fog and back toward a life that feels worth showing up for.
