Depression is problematic in several ways and can feel impossible to break out of. My goal for working with clients struggling with depression is to start imagining a better future. My interest lies in getting to know my clients specifically, because while there may be some general truths about depression treatment, the more specific we can tailor the healing, the more it will fit and sustain itself.

When I work with people who are weighed down with symptoms of depression, I find that it is important to remember two things: go slowly, and go together. Employing a trauma informed, family systems and somatic lens to what you are experiencing can help provide insight into how to move through and manage it. Journeying with clients through their depression is a great honour, and is something I take very seriously. I find that for many people, holding onto hope that things could be different, is something that can seem too much. Part of my commitment to working through depression is that, until you are ready, I will hold onto hope for both us.

Depression can be very painful, but I believe there is hope and that people do not need to stay this way. Along with medical reasons, I believe that depression is the result of certain thought patterns. I help people take a look at their automatic thought patterns, assumptions, and schemas (core beliefs about themselves), and empower them to see that they can chose to think differently. When people are able to change their negative thought patterns for more realistic ones, their emotions and behaviours begin to improve as well.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach to depression. CBT elects not to focus much on the past and instead focuses on identifying negative thoughts and recognizing healthier and more realistic ones. When a change in attitude occurs, it leads to a change in behavior. As we identify these negative thoughts, we will work together to create treatment goals such as a change to negative behaviors. When we identify these negative thoughts and behaviors, we will practice techniques in a safe, controlled environment that will help you to respond successfully in situations where these become present.

Depression is among the most common and devastating health conditions a person can face. Fortunately, there are treatments that are scientifically supported to provide relief to individuals suffering from depression. In particular, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is among the most researched and proven for mild to moderate depression. At Meristem, we strive to incorporate CBT interventions into individually tailored treatment plans that are wholistic and comprehensive because research and clinical experience has shown us that this eclectic approach gives us the best results at recovery for clients of all ages.

Depression - it's a word we hear often and it's a condition that many of us experience. Depression can show up in lots of ways - maybe you always feel sad, or your motivation is gone, perhaps making it through a day seems impossible sometimes. Regardless of how you experience depression, counselling can be helpful. Approaches like CBT, which is part of how I work with depression, can help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns and distorted thinking, and unlock new, refreshing and positive perspectives on your life. Therapy for depression is a step towards improved mental well-being and a chance to work with a professional who can guide you through the healing process.

I have seen many clients who have either given up or whom are on the verge giving up on, what many claim is ‘everything’…. Nothing seems to be of interest to them. Nothing really is happening in life that they want to talk about. But the persistent sadness and lack of personal drive becomes a constant burden and the constant persistence of everyone telling them to get out of their ‘funk’ is starting to take its toll. Using Dialectic Behavioural Therapy, guided meditation, mindfulness, and other strategies we work to successfully get clients “out of this rutt” and truly realize their potential.

The thoughts and depth of sadness or lack of emotion is a very difficult thing to experience, especially on your own. Depression is one of those things that can take over your life - your mental health, your job, your relationship, and your enjoyments in life. The symptoms can leave you feeling "paralzyed" and very stuck in life. Most of all, it can leave you feeling alone. I work a lot with my clients on navigating and managing the very difficult symptoms of depression. This means work on current (and even past) issues, and finding your own, individualized treatment plan to conquer these symptoms. Everyone's needs are different, and I'm here to help and listen and work through it with you.

One of my passions in life is to help guide people through the process of recovering from depression. In many cases, the ways that people try to get themselves out of depression, paradoxically end up causing more problems. I will help you sidestep these habits that can develop (ex. 'thinking' your way out of it, being overly self-critical, isolating yourself and discontinuing activities you used to enjoy). I will help you learn how to more skillfully manage the difficult/ unpleasant emotions and thoughts that are part of the 'territory of depression'. You will learn how to be less self-critical, to tap back into positive emotions, to take much better care of yourself & feel 'alive' again.

Depression has become an epidemic in our world...hard things happen, biochemistry responds and depression can set in---it can brew over many years with many causal factors [chronic childhood difficulties and learning], or happen quickly [reactive depression]. It changes everything and does not magically go away---it takes time; reframing with active cognitive work; diligent self-care; a consult with your GP; possibly medication and counselling. Depression often can be held firm with a constant focus and depressive rumination on the past. Therapy can help loosen our grip on the things wee cannot change.

In working with individuals who struggle with depression, I primarily use a cognitive behavioural therapeutic (CBT) approach. The principal aim of this approach is to increase awareness that thoughts and behaviours drive emotion. In addition, the goal is to increase consciousness of distorted perceptions. That is, often individuals who struggle with depression do not think accurately, and if their thoughts are not accurate, than they cannot be trusted. The purpose of CBT is to bring awareness to cognitive distortions and then teach individuals how to rebalance their thoughts to be more accurate.

Depression is not only about feeling sad - it can leave you feeling irritable, tired, it can affect your ability to concentrate, and small tasks can sometimes feel insurmountable. Sometimes it's a feeling of emptiness inside that can be hard to describe. Life does not have to feel like this - you CAN work through depression, and feel more like your old self again. CBT is highly effective in treating depression - best of all, there are no side effects, and the skills that you learn can last a lifetime.

We work with children, teens and adults dealing with depression. There may be many underlying dynamics for people coping with depressive symptoms including an unprocessed loss from the past, or difficulties processing emotions, including anger. We use a combination of approaches to support clients including CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy), a psychodynamic approach, and IFS (internal family systems). We often incorporate creative approaches into our work with children and teens, including play, art and music therapy.

Depression involves a persistently low mood coupled with a loss of enjoyment in activities that once inspired joy. While this condition is synonymous with a loss of hope for those who suffer from it, there are in fact a great many effective treatments that can help. While painful emotions are part of life, counselling can help you process them so that you can move forward and rediscover happiness. In my experience, customizing every treatment plan to the individual provides the best outcome as each clients needs are as individual as they are. Reach out, change your path and start your recovery.
