When depression takes hold, it touches every aspect of your life. It can entrap you in a state of numbness, exhaustion, and constant self-criticism. It can be emotionally and physically debilitating - and can lead to feelings of complete hopelessness. If you think that you or a loved one are experiencing depression - reach out. Together we can work towards understanding your depression, and empowering you with effective tools to battle it. It IS possible to find your joy again.

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.

Experiencing depressive symptoms, low mood, low affect, low-ness is hard. Using psychodynamics and person-centered, strengths based therapies, I strive to aid clients in understanding the patterns of these symptoms so we can, collaboratively work together to process these feelings and devise ways that work for you to regulate and improve mood over time.

CBT therapy is used for depression. The name refers to therapy based upon a combination of basic behavioural and cognitive principles which are research based. Most therapists working with depression use a blend of cognitive and behavioural therapy. It focuses on behaviours that can be controlled through rational thought. It uses a number of goal oriented approaches and exercises.

When life becomes too much, it’s easy to become socially withdrawn and mentally disconnected from the world around us. It can feel like you're stuck and don't know how to get out. But you’re not alone and you don’t have to navigate these concerns alone. Seeking help is a strength and a great first step in the right direction to prioritizing your mental wellness and taking back control over your life.

Symptoms of depression can vary and are not always obvious. Our clinicians can help you understand depression and way to improve coping or access treatment. Some people feel that they have everything and are confused as to why they feel unmotivated or unfulfilled. Action is necessary before motivation kicks in, the first action you can take is to reach out or book an appointment.

If you find yourself turning to alcohol, substances, or other addictive behaviours to cope with depressed moods, there is a way out. I help clients with addictions overcome the depressed moods causing them to turn to substances or addictive behaviours to cope. Everyone is different, so I work with you to develop a plan that fits your unique situation. If you are unsure where to start, send me a message. If I'm not the right fit, I can connect you to resources that will allow you to start getting help today, without having to wait.

Depression can be debilitating. I know I have been there. I also know there is a way out. If you are feeling continually down, having negative thoughts, losing focus, and feeling like joyous feelings are limiting, you may be experiencing depression. We look at where you are at and how to bring you back up to feeling more joy than sadness. It is possible.
