Depression is a common experience in our society today. At Nest, we focus our treatment to address the root causes of depression, particularly during the perinatal and postpartum periods. Through a variety of therapy modalities, we work with individuals to provide them with the tools they need to address and improve their mental health and reduce their experience of depression.

Research has clearly demonstrated that mindfulness-based approaches to depression are so powerful that they can reduce the chances of having a relapse by 50%! That's a big deal. A depressed mind is busy creating all kinds of negative thoughts. Mindfulness-based therapy will teach you a new way to relate to your thoughts. You don't have to believe everything you think! Especially the bad stuff, becuse it's often not true.

Depression is on the rise in not only Canada but around the world. There a variety of reasons why this is - I have come to believe its the rise of a society that is busy and not taking care of themselves emotionally and physically. We are focused on the future and not enough on the present. Counselling allows a person to slow down and be in the present. People can then receive care and support as they walk through their feelings, thoughts and stories of their life.

In our sessions, we will explore the factors that contribute to feelings of depression and low mood and practice skill-building. We can learn to identify and shift the thinking patterns, accept and process our emotions, and detach ourselves from any expectations that may be keeping us stuck. We can also learn new ways to relate to ourselves and support ourselves through depression.

When supporting a client through depression, I help clients to learn to accept the difficult emotions associated with depression without avoidance or self-criticism, while focusing on what truly matters to them and taking committed action towards their values. We explore how the client’s story of depression has shaped their identity, creating space for them to reframe their experiences and uncover new meanings and possibilities for the future. Together, we work to understand parts of the client that may carry pain or negative beliefs, fostering healing and integration. Together, we develop a holistic approach to depression that promotes self-compassion, empowerment, and hope for recovery.
