Depression
Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Depression can make even the simplest parts of the day feel heavy, distant, and out of reach, and for many girls and women, it can be easy to dismiss those feelings or push them aside for the sake of everyone else. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in helping girls and women of all ages recognize and work through depression in a space that is warm, judgment-free, and entirely their own. Using evidence-based therapy, we help you understand the roots of what you are feeling, gently challenge the thoughts that are keeping you stuck, and rebuild a sense of joy, motivation, and connection to the life you deserve. You do not have to keep going through this alone, and you do not have to settle for just getting by.

Depression
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Depression can show up as more than sadness. It may feel like heaviness, disconnection, loss of motivation, or a quiet sense of moving through life on autopilot. Many women I work with continue to meet responsibilities even while feeling emotionally depleted inside. Therapy offers space to explore the deeper context surrounding these experiences and to reconnect with parts of yourself that may feel distant or muted. Together, we work toward restoring a greater sense of engagement, meaning, and internal support.

Depression
Michelle Juarez (Reflections Counseling Services)
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Depression related to reproductive trauma can feel overwhelming, isolating, and deeply personal. Experiences such as infertility, pregnancy loss, traumatic birth, or complicated pregnancies often impact mood, identity, and the nervous system in ways that are not always understood by others. In my work, I provide highly personalized, trauma-informed therapy that integrates emotional and somatic support to help clients process loss, regulate emotions, and reconnect with themselves. Therapy offers a compassionate space to heal at your own pace and begin restoring hope and resilience.

Depression
Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, depression is often understood as protective parts that create shutdown, numbness, or withdrawal to shield the system from overwhelming emotional pain. These parts may be guarding more vulnerable exiled parts that carry feelings such as shame, grief, or worthlessness. Therapy focuses on helping clients access Self to compassionately connect with these parts, allowing protective roles to soften and facilitating healing of the underlying emotional wounds.

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.
