Licensed Professional Counselor
In 80401 - Nearby to Derby.
Whether depression has been present since early childhood or came on after a challenging situation, depression makes everything in life harder. The feelings of depression can be intense and overwhelming, they can also be dull and numb. In counseling we take the times to explore what your experience of depression is like for you and create a plan reconnect to your most meaningful life. One of my primary therapeutic approaches is ACT-Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. In this model we learn many tools and interventions to release the grip of the struggle from our internal and external experiences, and start moving towards the things that really matter, give your life meaning value.

Depression Counselor
Mark Odland, MA, LMFT, MDIV
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist / Certified EMDR Therapist / Experienced Christian Counselor
Available for Online Therapy
If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.

Licensed Professional Counselor
In 80212 - Nearby to Derby.
Depression often signals a system that’s gone into protective shutdown. I approach it with curiosity, using body and mindfulness-based practices to gently awaken your nervous system and bring you safely and comfortably back into the driver's seat of your life. By tuning into what your system has been trying to protect you from, we create room for motivation, pleasure, and connection to return naturally, rather than forcing positivity.
