Depression Counselling in Birnam, ON.

Depression can leave you feeling disconnected, exhausted, and unsure of how to move forward. In my work, I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you don’t have to face those feelings alone. Together, we explore both the emotional and physical aspects of depression, using approaches such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Experiencing, and Polyvagal-informed practices to help your body and mind feel safe again. I also use CBT- and DBT-informed strategies to support you in building small, manageable steps toward change. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, rediscover hope, and find a greater sense of balance and self-compassion in your daily life.

I provide a supportive space for clients experiencing low mood, fatigue, or self-criticism. Together, we address unhelpful thought patterns, nurture self-compassion, and develop strategies to regain motivation and energy. Clients leave therapy feeling more hopeful, connected to their values, and equipped to restore balance, confidence, and joy in their daily lives.

Depression can feel like a never-ending dark tunnel in which hope, purpose, joy, and motivation to live life can seem impossible. Depression can also lead us to feel disconnected from the very things that make life worth living and it can also make reaching out for help challenging. Should you decide to reach out for help, I will work with you to safely explore how depression has been affecting you and identify some of the factors that may have led you to feel depressed. I will also support you in developing tools to cope with depression so that you can experience a greater sense of connection and purpose within your life.

Depression is a result of non-processed grief, which itself comes from a sense of loss. It is the mechanism through which the mind tries to “take it easy” and focus on the loss. However, in today’s society, we do our best to avoid it or even deny it. Sometimes, we take the easy way of medication so that we do not face this darkness inside. A successfully therapy accompanies the client through this journey of introspection and creates supportive environment in which the client faces the loss.
