Depression
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.

Depression
Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with clients to understand how depression affects thoughts, emotions, and daily behaviors. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns and develop practical strategies to lift mood, increase motivation, and rebuild engagement in meaningful activities. I guide clients in challenging negative thinking, setting achievable goals, and cultivating self-compassion. My goal is to help clients regain a sense of control, find hope, and build skills to navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience and balance.

Depression
Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
People think depression is all about crying and feeling bad for yourself, but you know better. You know that it feels like wearing a lead blanket, all the time. It feels like life is in black and white. It feels like losing your "wanting", like there's nothing worth wanting left. Your depression tells you this is forever, that life has always been like this and it always will be like this.
Stop right there, depression! Your brain is lying to you, and you know it! That's why you're looking into therapy. You're right, there is hope. You're right, life isn't always like this. Let's get working to help lift this fog and bring you out of the misery and back into the present moment.

Depression
Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Depression can be episodic or chronic. We need to understand what your depression is built out of. What memories, thoughts, and feelings contribute to a narrative in your life and what daily routines support the ongoing feeling of depression.
