Booo depression!!! 👎👎 But also, yay depression!??? 🤔 Depression is one of the most insidious of mental health challenges because it can rob you of the very things needed to counteract it. It can also be an important gauge that something in your life needs a tune-up! Like, today! Our first steps forward will be to make it crystal clear that, You Are Not Your Depression. Together we will identify the tactics and tricks its being using in order to maintain its presence in your life. We'll also discover just what it's doing there in the first place and why it's been sticking around. Together we'll begin to shine a light on something that would much rather prefer you remained in the dark!

Depression hurts and is becoming epidemic in our society. However, depression is a treatable condition and there are effective approaches that can help you break the cycle of chronic unhappiness so you can keep moving forward, learn how to face life’s challenges with greater resilience and regain a sense of well-being. I work from the best evidence- based therapies for depression: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Interpersonal therapy (IPT), Solution Focused Therapy and Art Therapy to help you overcome the mental habits leading to despair, rumination, and self-blame so you can repossess the sense of hope, joy and life balance.

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.
