Depression Counselling in Sudbury, ON.

Depression affects millions—yet it can feel profoundly isolating, like a prison of heavy fog, helplessness, guilt, or numbness. You’re not alone: I’ve walked alongside countless clients and seen how therapy can puncture that solitude and lift shame. My goal is to bring empathy, in part shaped by my own life’s challenges, and a warm, non-judgmental presence. Using CBT to reframe unhelpful thoughts, ACT to make room for difficult emotions, and mindfulness to anchor you in the present, we’ll build practical skills and compassionate self-talk to dismantle hopelessness. The goal? To break through the barriers of shame and disconnection—helping you reclaim energy, purpose, and a sense of belonging

Depression can cast a shadow over every aspect of life, but there is a way forward. In a compassionate and non-judgmental space, we'll work together to understand and alleviate the symptoms of depression. I'm here to support you on your journey towards renewed hope and self-empowerment. Reach out for a free consultation, and let's begin your path to healing.

Bettina Kealy, B.A., M.A., R.P. provides Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and other appropriate counselling modalities to address symptoms of depression. Depression is a serious mental health difficult that if left untreated, can result in serious life disruption and loss. Psychotherapy assists the client in facilitating necessary changes to their thought process and behaviour to reduce and eliminate their symptoms.

Depression is often a response to having experienced profound psychological pain. It is a way for us to retreat or numb ourselves from the overwhelming emotions of such stressful circumstances. It acts as a protective shield in a way. In therapy, we will work towards addressing the underlying sources that are contributing to feelings of deep sadness. This can be a difficult task and as such it can be helpful to include strategies alongside our reflective work which may include CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Behavioural Activation.
