Depression
TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
I understand Depression and Depressive Disorders (including Psychotic Depression) as the result of loss. It is the mind/body's response to a normal but difficult aspect of all of our lives. Things get depressed and depressing when we all experience loss. This can be any kind of loss: relationships, family, work, dreams, friendships, school achievements, and/or something special to us. At times Depression can overwhelm any of us. I treat Depression and Depressive Disorders with both mind and body: analysis one or twice per week, supplements for the brain, diet and exercise, and the creation of "flow experiences" for the patient. Connection, attachment, and trust are very important here in the therapeutic relationship as part of the healing process. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Depression is normal. We all get depressed. It's our body's way of saying something is wrong. We're either living with something that no longer serves us, or we're yearning for something that has been missing. For a long time now, the psychology and psychiatric communities have treated depression as something to get rid of, something to treat. And while nobody wants to be depressed, efforts to get rid of it, or diminish its symptoms, tend to make things worse. Luckily, there are new and much more effective ways to work with depression. Therapies that include the body (somatic psychology), mindfulness (MBSR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and neuro-science have a much better success rate in treating depression. When we approach depression as a messenger and listen to what it is telling us, it tends to go away! So, what is your depression telling you? What is in your life that shouldn't be? What is missing? For over 25 years I have been helping my clients overcome depression blending the best from the worlds of somatic psychology, mindfulness, and neuroscience.

Depression
Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Do you feel like there is a dark cloud over you? Maybe you've tried to talk about your depression with friends or family. Maybe you've already tried therapy, and nothing seemed to work. Overtime, you start feeling bad for even talking about it. When it's shared, it can feel like you're causing people unneeded pain and suffering, so you keep it in and your isolate from others not because you don't love them or want to be around them but because you don't want to hurt them. If any of this resembles your experience, I want to start by acknowledging how hard this is and assure you it doesn't have to hurt this bad. For years now I've been helping client's shake their depression and rise above their "dark cloud." with a combination of inner frameworks and outer skills. Not only will I be giving you practical tools you can use today but we will also be working together to cultivate mindsets that lead to a happier more fulfilling life. Interested? Let's connect.

Darin Bennett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Depression can seem impossible to overcome, due to its dark and enveloping nature. However, turning within and healing the wounds that cause depression is an immensely liberating component of psycho-therapy.

Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Depression has many root causes, but is highly responsive to treatment. I work with people to identify what is at the root of their depressive symptoms and utilize Somatic, Ego-state and EMDR-related practices to address these root causes.

Depression
Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Depression is often a symptom of unresolved feelings. It can be a reaction to anxiety that has exhausted itself, or anger turned inward. Some people are perfectionistic to a fault and constantly beat up on themselves for failing to attain an impossible standard of living. As a psychodynamic clinician, I help depressed people find the roots of their depression, rather than just addressing the symptoms.

Depression
Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Psychotherapy, or talk therapy works as well as medication for many people. It may be used alone or in combination with other approaches, including exercise and optimal nutrition. Studies have shown that psychotherapy can cause changes in brain function similar to those produced by medications. Focused, goal-oriented forms of therapy such as cognitive-behavior therapy appear to be the most effective in treating depression.
