Depression
Reginald K. Riggins
Psychologist, PhD
Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions diagnosed. In my experience, cognitive-behavioral therapy has been the most effective approach to treating depression symptoms. This would entail address thinking errors, altering maladaptive behaviors and increases one's level of mindfulness to reduce depression symptoms.

Depression
Amy-Noelle Shih
Licensed Professional Counselor, Relationship Therapist and Life Coach, LPC, MA
Depression is a symptom of no longer feeling the feeling of you — what I call your diamond signature—your spark, life force, your very aliveness and vitality.
This healing work involves effective strategies and tools—the coaching aspect—to reset each day and gain more confidence and motivation to face life's challenges. And therapeutic interventions to identify what is getting in the way of you “yessing” into the life you want. My coaching and therapy combination allows action and healing to come together in an accelerated manner, helping you move beyond stuck layers and into beautiful possibilities.

A common feature of depression is a pervasive sense of hopelessness, which aims to protect depressed individuals from working toward change, failing, and then being disappointed. My initial goal when working with depressed clients is to foster a sense of hope and a belief in their ability to change, such that clients will feel empowered to pursue their goals and live their lives to the fullest extent.

I support individuals who are living with depression and feeling weighed down by persistent sadness, low motivation, fatigue, or a sense of disconnection from themselves and others.

In our work together, I provide a safe, compassionate space to explore the emotional, cognitive, and situational factors contributing to your depression. Using a blend of evidence-based strategies and person-centered support, we work toward restoring hope, reestablishing a sense of purpose, and building coping tools that feel empowering and sustainable. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it alone.

Houston is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the United States, and therapists here serve an extraordinarily wide range of cultural communities, with strong demand for bilingual and multicultural practitioners across its many distinct neighborhoods. The city's petrochemical industry and repeated major flooding events — including Hurricane Harvey — have made trauma, grief, and disaster recovery a persistent focus for many Houston therapists. Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, provides an extensive institutional backdrop, with a large independent therapy community spread across the Heights, Montrose, and the Energy Corridor. Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Hindi, and Urdu-speaking therapists are all well represented in the Houston metro.
