Feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like a cloud is always hanging overhead? Depression can drain your energy, dim your sense of purpose, and make even the smallest tasks feel overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.

I’m Dr. Larry Shapiro, a licensed clinical psychologist offering telehealth depression therapy for adults in St. Louis and across Missouri. With over 30 years of experience, I help individuals navigate the depths of depression and rediscover clarity, connection, and hope—no matter how long they’ve been struggling.

Depression looks different for everyone. You might relate to some of the following:

  • Feeling persistently sad, numb, or emotionally flat

  • Loss of interest in activities you used to enjoy

  • Trouble sleeping—or sleeping too much

  • Low energy or constant fatigue

  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

  • Irritability or isolation from others

  • Feeling hopeless, worthless, or stuck

Whether your symptoms are new or long-standing, you don’t have to face them alone.

How Depression Therapy Can Help

Therapy offers a safe, non-judgmental space to understand your experience and begin creating change. My approach goes beyond symptom management—we work together to address the root causes of your depression and build lasting emotional resilience.

In therapy, we might explore:

  • Patterns of thought that fuel self-criticism or hopelessness

  • The impact of early experiences or past relationships

  • Stress, burnout, or chronic overwhelm

  • Tools for improving motivation, mood, and focus

  • How to reconnect with meaning and purpose

Sessions are individualized and always guided by your goals. Whether you’re new to therapy or have tried it before, I offer support that’s both evidence-based and deeply human.
