Dino Di Donato, MFT, MS, M.Ed Counseling
Depression is physical as well as psychological experience. It may appear with or without direct or immediate triggers..We learn to manage it to prevent it from overwhelming us. By using Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and Constructivist Psychotherapy we can pay discover the personal narrative and thought-emotional processes that work to sustain depression. By working to identify and then change the narrative or thought process we begin to gain some control over the mood. We also employ established, effective personal practices to nurture and develop means of countering the mood. We may not be able to erase the past or the mod but we can change our relationship to it.

In the emotional landscape of every life, there are peaks and valleys – natural places we arrive at defined by the highness of joy or the lowness of sorrow. But for some, the lowness is unrelenting. Do you feel forever locked in a valley, unable to find a way out of the feelings of disinterest, inadequacy, and darkness?
Psychotherapy is a proven method to bringing down those blocks that keep you locked away from the life you want to lead, the relationships you want to foster, and the bliss you want to revel in.

My approach to treating depression is based on the nature, level and depresssion history of a particular client. In addition to providing safety for a person to express themselves freely, we build internal and external resources, e.g. lifestyle and social support, exercise. I also teach mindfulness and sensorimotor skills that interrupt the depressive patterns that take place in mind and body. Gradually changing self defeating relationship patterns can also relieve depression. A majority of my clients find depression decreases significantly with these methods. For some, depressive symptoms may be more entrenched, in which case medication has been used as an additional support.

Depression is a complex and disturbing experience. While it exists in several forms, it is different from normal sadness over a loss or upset over trying circumstances. Depression can be paralyzing and leads to a loss of perspective, which can then lead to poor choices and consequently, more depression. I work with depression in several ways including cognitive behavioral approaches to address your thoughts and actions that are contributing or at least sustaining your depression. I also use depth therapy whereby we explore the deeper meaning of your depression and what, if anything, it may have to offer you in terms of increased awareness of your life and the general experience of life.
Jane Steinberg, MFT
Depression has many faces, but it often feels like a cloud of darkness has descended over the world and the light cannot get through. You may have lost someone or something deeply important to you and the world has no meaning any more. You have lost touch with your deepest self and cannot find your way. Together, we will work to help you explore the source of your depression, move through and resolve all of your feelings and experiences, and access what has joy, meaning and purpose for you on the way towards creating the life that you most deeply want.
Dr. Kevin Fleming, Ph.D.
Grey Matters International, Inc. and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D. handles depression and other emotional disorders in a very unique way. Most of therapy or counseling processes utilize validation, unconditional positive regard, and reframing as common techniques to get someone to heal from their depression. Though this can be helpful, it rarely fixes the core problem behind it and for tough cases we then refer them usually to a psychiatrist for medication which can have tons of side effects. Instead, why not try a natural and arguably more effective way to not just change your mind, but change the brain--where the depression is rooted. Contact us at kevin@kevinflemingphd.com.

During therapy, we will define the depression, explore its depths and examine treatment modalities. If your style of learning is simply talking, we’ll engage in a trial of reflecting, listening or, perhaps, silence. We may work from a notebooks, textbooks, journals, videos and movies.
We’ll think and talk about: regret, loss, fear, self-esteem, “what I’ve done,” “what I’ve haven’t done.” We’ll see if you have thoughts that: others are better educated, more interesting, more clever, socially adept or self-confident. We’ll look at your views on your ability to change, the future, past life experiences and checking in on the “here and now.” Medication is a consideration, if needed.
Mark Hirschfield
Depression can be a very debilitating condition which for many therapists is difficult to work with. I have a great deal of success and extensive experience working with depression. I first asses the clients' condition and then aid them with behavioral and cognitive techniques which will swiftly begin to free them from their inertia. If necessary we will then work with the underlying issues to hold these new found positive feelings in a permanent place.

Unlike the blues, depression is a dark place where you lose interest in the things you use to enjoy, like: friends, daily activities, and work. Even getting out of bed may seem like a challenge.
A key ingredient for successful therapy is a good, trusting relationship between patient and therapist. Empirically supported treatments like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, CBT, can be as effective as antidepressants. As an experienced therapist I can help you apply specific skills to change the impact of negative thoughts and depression on your life.

If you are reading this, thinking that you might be depressed, you probably are.
Even if one is used to it, depression sucks the life energy out of a person, dampening their ability to concentrate, to be creative or have hope for a good future. Depression is different from the blues, which may last just a day or two. Depression can be mild, moderate or severe, but left unchecked, it can become chronic.
Please call or email me so I can help you to assess where you are right now in terms of depression, and the feelings that often become mixed with it such as anxiety and frustration.
If we determine that therapy might be useful for you, call me and let's find a time to meet.

Behind all depression and anxiety, lies a deep opportunity to contact lost or dis-connected pieces of the self that may lay outside of our awareness, which then results in these symptoms which can make it extremely challenging to function in day to day tasks like paying bills, going to work and dealing with human relationships. it can feel unmanageable. The good this is, there is hope. For over 20 years I have supported people in consciously moving through the humanness of depression into greater awareness, recognizing and grieving the lost and missing pieces of self, and renewing trust, faith, and hope in t he process of life. Clients report feeling more ease, relaxation & growth in life
