Sometimes we simply feel stuck in neutral. We can't move into drive and if we don't hold on tightly we so easily can fall back into reverse. Depression takes many forms and sometimes we don't even know that we are engulfed by it. But if you feel that you are so very alone and that no one can understand what you are going through perhaps talking to a Psychotherapist might be a good place to start. Try taking that first step because everyone needs someone to talk to.
Jean Fitzpatrick, L.P.
Sometimes life hurts. Do tears come surprisingly easily these days? Have activities and relationships you've always enjoyed stopped being fun? Do loved ones tell you you're cranky? Have your eating or sleeping patterns changed? If so, you may be depressed. Often the first thing people think of is antidepressant medication. Yet medication is no substitute for talking about your feelings with an experienced, compassionate therapist who will help you find more effective, fulfilling ways of thinking and creating supportive structure in your life. You can feel better! To ask questions you may have about depression or to make an appointment, contact Jean Fitzpatrick.

There is hope if you are unable to enjoy the things that used to give you pleasure or if you have a sense of sadnesss or hopelessness that just won't go away. We all feel sad from time to time, but depression is when this goes on over time and can affect all areas of your life and even lead to you feeling like giving up on life. Together, we can look at what is going on and explore ways (through discussion, actions and possibly involving a physician) to help you back to where you would want to be - where you can experience a sense of wholeness and peace. Christopher can help you on that journey.

Depression is often a complex condition. It may require multiple forms of healing that include psychotherapy, nutritional support, physical exercise, interactive and recreational activities, and medication at times. Working with one's history of depression, understanding family and other relational components, and times without depression help to identify important signposts in a person's life and some best courses of action(s). Understanding ones own depression is an excellent first step, planning for change is the next step (one's daily activities and goals), and monitoring when depression is more or less active helps. There's hope if you suffer from depression, hope and change.
Annie Block Pearl, M.S.
Depression and anxiety are the two most diagnosed psychological conditions in our Western world. The depressed clients who I have successfully treated came to me with a deep frustration in their souls.My approach is a multi-pronged approach. I work holistically to bring awareness to physical, biological and nutritional issues that might be contributing to the problem. Concurrently, In our psychotherapeutic work we develop tools to explore and express the unique and authentic life that each client so richly deserves. The soul's wishes can be expressed when self-limiting patterns are released and a more joyful life follows.
Nancy Gubman, LCSW
Depression can come from external situations, such as relationship or job loss, or internal states, often experienced as chronic depression. I try to first of all help the client stop blaming him- or herself for this state. Then I tend to focus on small shifts in the session. For example, if a client starts out being excited about something and then shifts to a flat affect, I will comment on that and together we will try to understand what happend right before the shift. I believe that paying attention to these small and often subtle shifts, right in the session, can help to alter old patterns.
Carolyn AlRoy, Psy.D.
I will determine the severity of depression and the need for medication. We will figure out if depression is a lifestyle, or an acute response to a crisis or situation. We will look at the causes, your experience of depression, what are triggers for depression, and ways to cope with it and give you better control of it. If it is a recurrent depression we will find ways for you to cope, and develop good support networks if you don't have them.

Chronic depression can leave one feeling completely hopeless about life. It also depletes the little bit of energy you have, making getting out of bed in the morning a chore. You might find yourself sleeping too much, yet feeling exhausted all the time. When I work with people who exhibit these symptoms, the initial psychotherapy steps include helping the person set goals and begin working toward them while the therapy unfolds and sources of the depression get examined in new ways.

I help individuals understand how their behavior leads to depression. Rather than automatically suggest medication, I help depressed persons understand how they can live life more effectively, develop realistic goals and expectations, handle the tasks of life and relate to other people more skillfully, stop believing their inner critic and develop better ways to socialize with people. I also help the patient to understand if there are relationships and/or work environments that may be contributing to their depression, in addition to unresolved childhood events.
Michael Bednarski, PhD
There are many understandable causes for depression and every person's experience with depression is unique. Learning the root causes of your depression will help us to tailor individualized approaches to helping you both manage and beat depression. Many patients treated for depression using my approach see improvement within a few months of treatment. Some see results within weeks.
Marc Tallent, PhD
There is no better treatment for depression than talk therapy. This may sound surprising, but have you ever met anyone who stopped taking antidepressants because his or her depression was cured? Several recent studies have proved what many psychologists have long known: Antidepressant medications have very little or no effect. (See “The Depressing News About Antidepressants,” Newsweek, January 29, 2010: http://www.newsweek.com/2010/01/28/the-depressing-news-about-antidepressants.html). --- I will work with you to uncover the root causes of your depression, learn new responses to life’s challenges, free you up to have a broader range of feelings, and experience more pleasure in life.
Nikki DiFranks, PhD, MA, MS, LCSW-R
In my biography on Theravive, I describe how I utilize an integrated combination of cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic modalities. That is, I tailor each treatment plan to the needs of the individual. Some patients wish to make connections between past experiences and current depression, and in this case it is appropriate to revisit the past to recognize its psychodynamic influence on current maladaptive behaviors. Other patients take a purely cognitive behavioral position on their experienced depression, wanting to be grounded in the present and move forward with problem-solving techniques and strategies. I also work with two psychiatrists who may prescribe medication where needed.
Caren Shapiro, LMSW, MFA
I work in an interactive and supportive way to help clients explore the feelings and self-defeating thoughts that undermine their happiness. Working together clients are able to bring unconscious thoughts into awareness, where they can be analyzed, explored and understood. I work to decrease self-anger and blame while setting real attainable goals. By talking through and challenging self-defeating beliefs and fears, I help clients loosen the hold of their depressive state. As a relational psychotherapist, I encourage and support clients as they build self-esteem and begin to create more satisfying and fulfilling lives.
