Oakland Therapists specializing in Depression

Paul Boyer

I help clients reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance use, and trauma. Interpersonal issues like reactivity and poor boundaries also something I've helped clients with. I work with ADHD and OCD as well. I most love working with clients who have been in conventional talk therapy for years, don't feel like they've gotten anywhere, and want a fresh perspective.

My clients come to therapy for a wide variety of reasons. Many struggle with depression, anxiety, or past trauma. Others require assistance through difficult circumstances, such as relationship issues, life transitions, grief, and work or academic stress. Others feel lost and unsure of where to go next in life. All of them want relief, and all of them wish to be understood. I strive to help them in an understanding and compassionate way.

Diana Teich

I work with couples who avoid conflict and feel lonely in their partnership, and those who fight frequently and find conflict escalates quickly. I also work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, have a hard time asking for their needs to be met and often don't understand their emotional reactions. Many experienced childhood trauma that has hurt their sense of self. Others come for support during life transitions or because they are grieving.

Brian La Roy Jones

Don't you agree life should be about more than just feeling *less* anxious, depressed, angry or conflict? I'm not in the “symptom reduction” business – like most therapists. Rather my focus is helping clients like you experience MORE. Picture experiencing not just less of something but more hope, love, connection, self-control, happiness, fulfillment, freedom, confidence, affection, compassion, trust, acceptance, validation, & feeling understood. Can you imagine what that would be like for you?

Many of my clients are facing a crossroads when they begin therapy - embarking on parenthood, rethinking career choices; both craving and dreading a change. They are often struggling with anxiety in its many forms - panic, OCD, perfectionism, phobias, avoidance, etc. I also offer neurodiversity-affirming psychological assessments for adults exploring possible diagnoses or seeking better understanding of their emotional functioning and neurotype strengths and challenges.

My clients are: couples, parents, families and individuals. Fulfillment is the very thing that achievement and money cannot buy. It allows us to live longer and with greater satisfaction. Relationships are vital. Most of all how we relate to ourselves. If past trauma, anxiety, or depression are interfering, then we can build the skills and internal resources to help.
