Depression
Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
According to research we have upwards of 70,000 thoughts a day. Most of them pass through us without so much as a “second thought”, but all are informing a sense of how we feel about ourselves, about the world we live in, about the abundance or the scarcity in our lives.
Our thoughts create our feelings and vice versa. For so many of us, “feelings” become an overwhelming, incapacitating part of our existence. What if you didn’t fear feelings? What if you had a clearer understanding of what thoughts had informed those feelings? These feelings and thoughts, which create anxiety, depression, worries, concerns or obsessions etc., can and must be dissected and understood. With insight and understanding comes relief. Situational pressures, breakups, job loss or confusion, a sense of purposelessness, become existential crisis.
In my work with individuals we closely examine the myriad of thoughts that pass through you daily. How do they make you feel? How do they inform your behaviors? It can occur in opposite as well. “I got a feeling he didn’t like me”. The feeling set up thought patterns of insecurity. Which comes first? How? Why? With empathy, insight and understanding, I work with clients to intervene in this process so that you are not just a firestorm of thoughts and feelings, but rather a mindful creation of what you want to feel. Making choices of what you want to think. What do you choose to believe about yourself? What is the narrative you have created for your life and is it accurate? Unpacking childhood memories and life experiences, understanding attachment complexities and desensitizing traumatic events that occur within our lives become primary objectives in the work. Processing in a more adaptive, healthy response with these relationships, traumas and experiences follow.
Together, with love, compassion and understanding, I gently help my clients discover how to live their best and fullest life, expressing the most authentic representation of self that one can be.

Depression
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Although historically I have helped people with severe Depression, my current practice tends to help people overcome more moderate levels of Depression, or at least Depressions that are in at least partial remission. In many ways this relates to my practice being conducted online. In general, I use a biopsychosocial model in how I approach helping people to gain mastery over Depression. I try to help my clients to replace patterns that increase Depression with patterns that will counteract it related to their thoughts, feelings, behavior, relationships, and context. Toward this end, I support my Depressed clients in evaluating how they are doing in each of these areas, to consider the results they are getting with the strategies they are using in each of these areas and then to find alternatives that will serve them better. One guiding premise I use is that Depression focuses on the past. So, much of what I strive to assist Depressed clients in doing is to shift to considering what they would ideally like in the future and then to assist them in moving toward that future collaboratively. As with other areas, the specific techniques and strategies used will vary for each client, and most often a combination of interventions are used in a sequence based upon the particular needs and preference of each particular client.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Depression is often a symptom of other, underlying issues. Hypnosis can not only help to discover any underlying causes by accessing subconscious beliefs, but can be used to help resolve them and feel better.
