If you are feeling down, blue, hopeless, and are not enjoying doing any of the things you used to enjoy or often find you're just too tired to do anything, OR IF YOU FEEL LIFE IS JUST NOT WORTH LIVING, it is time to get some help from a counsellor. This sadness can lead to more complicated concerns such as clinical depression if you don't get some help. It is especially important to note that in TEENAGERS OR ADOLESCENTS these symptoms often go unrecognized because it appears to others as general teenager "moodiness and irritability". Please contact me if you or someone close to you has these symptoms. I use Cognitive Therapy as a successful tool to help with your feeling of sadness.

Depression is very common amongst a lot of people. Most of us go through various ups and downs in our life, and sometimes we need a little help getting through a down period. When a client is depressed, similar to when a client is angry, I would help them in determining the root cause of the depression as it is critical for treatment planning. Once determined, we would discuss a treatment plan together that is realistically attainable. I would empower my client to recognize their strengths and abilities to manage their depression, such as looking at similar situations from their past that they have managed successfully.

Depression can be experienced in a magnitude of ways and is often experienced differently by each individual.

Physical symptoms may include, but are not limited to a lack of energy, problems sleeping, pronounced weight changes, and eventually, even serious illness. In cases of mild to moderate depression, there is an increasing amount of research supporting counselling as effective as medication in improving a person’s mood. Many clients have been referred to counselling by their family doctor when...(view profile to read more)

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Depression is often seen as a disorder of the person. Although there is certainly a biological component to depression, I work with individuals to reflect on how their depression can also be a response to their lived experiences. The more we understand the many components of how we are feeling and experiencing the world, the more empowered people struggling with depressive symptoms feel.

Depression can be a debilitating mental health issue, but the good news is there are excellent therapies out there designed to help treat it! Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has been shown to be one of the most effective treatments in helping with depression. CBT is a shorter term and skills-based therapy intended to help individuals learn strategies to better manage their mood and improve the quality of their life. I'd be happy to discuss more about CBT for depression with you!
