Chattanooga Depression Care Collective

Definitely Not Therapy: Monthly Mental Wellness for Creatives is every third Thursday from 6-7 PM at Clearstory Arts Workspace, hosted by Walnut Street Publishing. This gathering is a wellness coaching space for creatives to reflect on where they are mentally, identify areas to focus on, and build a personalized map for reconnection.
Coaching differs from counseling in that it focuses on actionable strategies and forward movement, rather than addressing past trauma or deep emotional processing. It’s not therapy, but it’s just as essential—a judgment-free, forward-looking approach focused on actionable strategies and helping you move toward greater mental wellness and a place connect with community while you’re at it.
Facilitated by Regina Gee, the founder of Wellspring Coaching, these gatherings offer a unique perspective on mental health, particularly for those who feel disconnected or overwhelmed. Regina’s integrative approach, grounded in her background in Neuroscience, Anthropology, and Integrative Wellness, views depression not as a disorder, but as a signal of disconnection. She helps participants explore how disconnection from body, place, people, source, and hope might be affecting their mental well-being, and provides practical tools to find relief and reconnection.

Do you do work that helps with depression? Come join our hub of practitioners! This event is for service providers doing work in Chattanooga to better help with depression.

At our monthly Hub Gatherings, we share who we are, what work we do, how it helps with depression, and how the collective can support us.
We meet this way on the first Tuesday of every month for an hour and a half in Walnut Street Publishing's Studio @ Clearstory Arts.

The purpose of these netcaring events is to create a community among local practitioners who are helping with depression and to grow our practices.

You are welcome to visit as a guest two times. After that you will be expected to join as a member should you like to continue to participate.

The CDCC is a hub of practitioners whose work supports depression care. We bring together professionals across disciplines to grow and sustain each other’s businesses through:

1. Hub Gatherings (Netcaring) – Events where practitioners connect, share knowledge, and build trust-based referral networks.
2. Relationship Marketing – A long-term, trust-driven approach to growing a business through genuine connections, collaborations, and word-of-mouth referrals.
3. Hosting Community Events & Offering Services – Providing public education, workshops, and access to diverse depression care options.

Hub Gathering's are an event where members of a hub come together for a shared experience. (We call these Netcaring). Hub gatherings allow for organic word of mouth to develop and to establish trust-based networking. Instead of trying to market directly to individuals, engaging with hub gatherings allows for your message or offering to spread more naturally through an existing trusted network.

*Charity Muse will be subbing for this month's event as Regina starts maternity leave!*
