Depression
Ray Williams

Depression can range from the nagging blues to the debilitating despair that keeps a person in bed for days. I've seen in my own life the difficulty of dealing with depression and the importance of addressing it early and intentionally so it doesn't grow. The good news is that there is hope for those who struggle with depression. Lifestyle changes, working on thinking patterns, skills to develop - these can all help with overcoming depression. And I'm willing to walk with you the whole way.

Depression
Dr. Lisa C. Watson
Psychologist, PsyD, MPH
In treating depression with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I begin by assessing the client's symptoms and understanding how depression impacts their daily functioning. Education is key, as I explain the connection between thoughts, emotions, and mood. Together, we identify negative thought patterns and work on replacing them with more realistic and positive perspectives. Behavioral activation involves setting goals for enjoyable or necessary activities, even when motivation is low. Relaxation techniques and mindfulness exercises help manage stress and promote emotional well-being. Homework assignments reinforce new skills, like monitoring mood or practicing relaxation. Regular review ensures we adapt our approach based on progress and client feedback, aiming to empower clients in overcoming depression and improving their overall mental health.

Depression
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I assist individuals dealing with depression by using a blend of psychodynamic insights, evidence based practices and a strength-based approach. Fundamentally, I use a psychodynamic lens to help the client explore underlying emotional conflicts and past experiences that may contribute to their current struggles, fostering deeper self-awareness and insight. Regarding evidence based practices, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)to help to address negative thought patterns and behaviors, providing clients with practical tools to manage their symptoms effectively. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can also be helpful to incorporate into treatment given that depression often involves avoiding situations, people, or activities that could trigger negative emotions. ACT helps individuals confront and engage with these avoided aspects of life in a mindful and values-driven manner, reducing avoidance and increasing overall life engagement. By focusing on clients’ inherent strengths, passions and past successes, I also help them re-build a sense of self-efficacy, confidence and resilience which can impact and improve depressive symptoms. Lastly, I commonly develop collaborative relationships with clients physicians in order to offer a more integrated treatment plan that supports the clients healing.
