Depression is one of the most common mental health issues, and fortunately, there are effective treatment options for it. I specialize in numerous treatment approaches for depression, including two evidence-based treatments (cognitive-behavioral therapy and interpersonal psychotherapy). Together, we will determine which treatment option might be best for you!

Therapist, M.A., LMHC
For some, depression is chemical, for others it is a habit of mind. For others, it's a combination of both. I will work with you to determine what is causing your depression and find ways to pull you out of the pit.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Depression is often misunderstood, thought to be the same as sadness or grief. While there are certainly similarities, depression has a different quality to it. Depression can make you feel like you have no life spark. It can make you feel like time has stopped. It can feel like it is taking over your life. Depression may be primarily organic, due to a chemical imbalance, or it may be primarily situational, or it can be a combination of both. Therapy can be very helpful for a person experiencing depression. It provides a place where things that are hard to talk about can be worked through. Many times, past trauma, as well as current situations, contribute to depression. Over time, we may get into habits of thought, feeling, and behavior that also contribute to depression. Even dietary habits can contribute. I use a holistic approach with psychodynamic underpinnings to look at past history, past trauma, beliefs, thoughts, feelings and behavioral patterns, and health and self-care habits to help clients address their depression.
