Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I know depression. I know its pain. I know the feeling of desperation and feeling totally disempowered and frightened that often comes with depression.
I became a clinical psychologist precisely because I wanted to learn how to help people who suffer with depression as I have in the past. It is black and it is lonely. But it does not have to be allowed to take over your life. You CAN take your life back by taking your mood back. I can show you how to begin to do it.
People too frequently say "I am depressed" when what they really mean is "I feel sad". "Depression" is a clinical disorder, and it is only appropriate to say someone is "depressed" if they meet all the criteria for depression.
Assessments of depression will measure the clinical symptoms of depression but what does it FEEL like on a daily basis? When you feel depressed, you are not thinking about the clinical symptoms, you are thinking and feeling more along the lines of just being "stuck".
In fact the experience of depression is feeling "stuck in present pain." The pain is NOW, the feeling of not being able to get out of it is NOW, and the stuck "I can't get out of this" feeling produces discouragement, frustration, sadness, very negative views of ourselves, and hopelessness--all emotions that seem to cause us to sink a little deeper every day.
I can help you get unstuck--contact me and let's begin to work to get you feeling more empowered, unstuck, moving forward again, and happier.

Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Depression isn’t just sadness—it can feel like a fog that dulls your motivation, isolates you from others, and makes even simple tasks feel insurmountable. Whether you're experiencing persistent low mood, burnout, or a loss of purpose, I offer a structured, evidence-based approach to help you reconnect with meaning and momentum.
My treatment integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral Activation, and Schema Therapy to address both the symptoms and the underlying patterns that sustain depression. We’ll explore how your thoughts, behaviors, and core beliefs interact—and develop practical strategies to restore energy, engagement, and emotional clarity. For clients navigating complex transitions or existential concerns, I also incorporate Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and values-based decision tools.
Therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly struggling behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that supports both immediate relief and long-term resilience.

Depression is real. It comes in many forms and I have helped people heal from major depressive episodes in which loss of hope has occurred. I worked many years in an inpatient psychiatric facility and have helped those recovering from severe depression. In my private practice, I work to help client avert their depression from falling to such levels of abyss by promoting self-care, improving self-esteem and identifying their personal desires that focus on real reasons to live and thrive.
