Depression
Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Depression does not always look like sadness. More often it shows up as numbness or flatness — moving through the week competently while feeling almost nothing, losing interest in what used to matter, and suspecting you have no right to feel this way because your life is objectively fine. I approach depression from a depth-oriented perspective: rather than treating it only as a set of symptoms to reduce, we follow what it is pointing to. That includes the anger, grief, or disappointment that often sits underneath a depressed mood and has had nowhere to go. Naming those accurately tends to do more than pushing through.

Depression
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I approach depression initially by exploring your life circumstances and/or the thoughts going through your head that are trigging your mood. There are times when we may want to look at the old tape recordings playing through your head triggering depression. Once I have an idea of what is fueling your depression then we can target that. I teach your how to use thought strategies and behavior strategies to reduce depression and improve your mood. My goal is to teach you several tools so that in any given situation, you have a tool to use.

Depression
Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Depression is a way our body tells us that there are issues that we have not resolved reaching a place where we feel completely hopeless. There is, however, an inner energy, a spark towards growth and we need to find that. We will build on strengths to then go heal what hurt us so deeply.

People with Depression often believe there is something wrong with themselves, sometimes unable to identify that depression is coloring the way they see themselves and the world.

Depression can feel heavy, numbing, and isolating, like you've lost touch with yourself. I'll listen fully and sit with you in whatever you're carrying, and together we'll gently explore what's underneath, reconnect with your strengths, and help you re-connect with your fullest most alive self.

Depression
Dr. Diann Sanford
Psychologist, Psy.D, LP, LPC
Do you secretly hate yourself or your life? Are you tired of faking your smile? Are you ready to do something about the emptiness you are feeling inside? If so, together through uniquely designed therapeutic interventions we can help you genuinely smile again, from the inside- out. We will build gratitude and compassion, challenge cognitive distortions, build supports and community, and learn to naturally restore and produce life giving energies within our own body through heart rate variability biofeedback, balance, mindand intentional self-care.
Often individuals recover without using medication, sometimes some of my clients who are on medication management are able to seriously reduce the amount of psychotropic medication prescribed after our sessions together.

Depression
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce sadness and depression related symptoms - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients struggle with recurrent depression, often impacted by their anxiety and social rejection for being different in some way (racial/ethnic minority, growing up poor, queer, trans/nonbinary, non-monogamous, neurodivergent, etc.). It can be hard to have positive self-esteem when you get so much feedback from others that being different is a bad thing.
