Depression: Navigating the Deep Stillness
From Systemic Shutdown to Vitality
Depression is often described as "sadness," but for many, it feels more like a shut down—a heavy, gray fog that disconnects you from your vitality, your relationships, and your sense of self. It is a state of chronic burnout where the nervous system has opted for "freeze" because "fight or flight" no longer feels possible. In my practice, we approach depression with radical curiosity, looking for the light that still exists beneath the weight.
Understanding the Layers of the "Fog"
Depression is rarely a solo traveler; it is influenced by the systems we live in and the attachments we hold. We explore:
The Weight of the Mask: Addressing the exhaustion of "performing" wellness while feeling a profound internal overwhelm.
Systemic Despair: Using Systems Theory to acknowledge how social inequities, power imbalances, and environmental stressors contribute to a sense of hopelessness.
The Attachment Gap: Identifying the "emotional isolation" that often fuels depressive cycles, even when you are surrounded by people.
A Multidimensional Path to Recovery
With over 20 years of experience, I integrate deep-reaching modalities to help you gently re-engage with life:
EMDR for the "Core Beliefs": We use EMDR to target the "stuck" memories and negative self-narratives—like "I am a burden" or "It will never get better"—that keep the depressive cycle in motion.
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "depressed part" of your system. Often, this part is trying to protect you from further pain by keeping you small and still. We work to build safety so this part can finally rest.
Nutrition-Informed Therapy: We look at the "gut-brain axis" and how physical nourishment and lifestyle rhythms impact your neurochemistry and mood.
Holding the Hope Until You Can
Whether you are experiencing a "situational dip" due to a life transition or have struggled with a "persistent low" for years, I provide a courageous space to do the heavy lifting. My goal is not just the absence of symptoms, but the presence of connection, agency, and joy.

Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Depression often shows up as numbness, exhaustion, hopelessness, or a quiet sense of disconnection from yourself and others. I help clients understand what their depression is communicating rather than treating it as something to simply push away. Together, we explore emotional patterns, unmet needs, and internal blocks so healing can happen at a deeper level. My work focuses on helping clients feel more alive, grounded, and emotionally connected again.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and depressive symptoms. You identity shouldn't be surrounded by your mental health state and I often work with clients to establish and work towards a new identity and lifestyle that focuses on freedom from their anxiety and depression. My style often is a mix of CBT or skill based therapy and a person-centered approach focusing on supporting you where you are at currently. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious and depressive thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!
