Are you struggling with feelings of hopelessness, fatigue, and a lack of motivation? Depression is both common and debilitating, often making it hard to see a way out.

Together, we will explore the root causes of your depression and work on healing from within. Using a blend of holistic and synergistic techniques, we will create a personalized plan to help you regain your energy and rediscover your sense of hope.

We will uncover your inner strengths, build emotional resilience, and develop practical strategies to manage and alleviate depressive symptoms. My goal is to support you in finding relief and helping you move towards a more balanced, fulfilling, and joyful life.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression often feels like being weighed down by hopelessness or self-criticism. My work integrates IFS to uncover the shame and pain beneath these feelings, combined with approaches like meditation/mindfulness, somatic sensing, and interpersonal neurobiology, and existential therapies to support healing and re-engagement with life. I frequently work alongside prescribers for medication support and use thorough differential diagnosis to distinguish depression from trauma responses, bipolar disorder, or grief.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I assist individuals dealing with depression by using a blend of psychodynamic insights, evidence based practices and a strength-based approach. Fundamentally, I use a psychodynamic lens to help the client explore underlying emotional conflicts and past experiences that may contribute to their current struggles, fostering deeper self-awareness and insight. Regarding evidence based practices, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)to help to address negative thought patterns and behaviors, providing clients with practical tools to manage their symptoms effectively. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can also be helpful to incorporate into treatment given that depression often involves avoiding situations, people, or activities that could trigger negative emotions. ACT helps individuals confront and engage with these avoided aspects of life in a mindful and values-driven manner, reducing avoidance and increasing overall life engagement. By focusing on clients’ inherent strengths, passions and past successes, I also help them re-build a sense of self-efficacy, confidence and resilience which can impact and improve depressive symptoms. Lastly, I commonly develop collaborative relationships with clients physicians in order to offer a more integrated treatment plan that supports the clients healing.

Dr. Steven J. Hanley
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sadness is part of the human condition. The causes of it are often more complicated than it sometimes seems at face value. Sometimes we don't have any clue why we are sad or depressed. I am here to help you talk about these feelings in a safe, empathic environment.
