Depression Counselling in Chester, NS.

Feeling depressed? Lost interest in things you once found fun? Experienced unwanted changes in your sleep patterns or diet? Finding it hard to concentrate? Wondering if it will ever get better? There is hope, and I can help! I utilize a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approach that will help you identify your stressors, including internal thoughts, beliefs, and feelings that are keeping you stuck in the depression rut.

Are you struggling to get out of bed, losing interest in once-loved activities or feeling helpless and hopeless? The lethargic and foggy shutdown of depression can make everything in life feel just a few inches out of reach. The good news is that depression is readily treatable. I would be glad to help you explore what is keeping your body stuck in numb disconnection. Next, we form a plan to help you back to your best self. Together we tackle here-and-now symptoms with strategies of mindfulness and CBT, while also untying old knots from the past with emotion-focused and inner-child work. The heaviness of depression is your body asking for care. Are you ready to answer its call?

Depression has been called the common cold of mental health. We all get it many times in our life. But when it comes and stays, affecting our work, our family, and our enjoyment of life - then it's time to do some deeper work. Medication, exercise, good nutrition and well balanced sleep can all help with recovery, but talk therapy is often the key that turns the lock on the prison cell of depression. In my experience depression often has deep, even unexpected roots. Tracing unresolved anger, guilt, frustration, and other issues may lead to freedom. Call and we can meet to discuss your story. Then we can plan how to get you unstuck, moving forward, and back to a better level of health
