Depression takes a toll on many fronts: it saps energy, generates low self-worth, creates problems in relationships, diminishes productivity and generally obscures the positive aspects of life. To make it even worse, many suffer in silence, feeling it's their fault. Well it's not. Like most afflictions, depression can usually lift with the right treatment. A combination of psychotherapy and appropriate medications usually has the best results. Please don't suffer alone. Email me and I will help you understand depression, how it may have originated for you, factors that have kept it entrenched, and how to begin making the shifts necessary for healing and recovery.

Depression affects many individuals at some point in their lives. Not only can depression affect thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, it can also impact the body physically. Lisa uses a variety of approaches to treat depression, including Hypnotherapy and EMDR. Treatment of depression is not a one-size-fit all protocol, and therefore it is important to implement an approach that is custom tailored to individual client needs.

Depression is on the rise in not only Canada but around the world. There a variety of reasons why this is - I have come to believe its the rise of a society that is busy and not taking care of themselves emotionally and physically. We are focused on the future and not enough on the present. Counselling allows a person to slow down and be in the present. People can then receive care and support as they walk through their feelings, thoughts and stories of their life.

Research has clearly demonstrated that mindfulness-based approaches to depression are so powerful that they can reduce the chances of having a relapse by 50%! That's a big deal. A depressed mind is busy creating all kinds of negative thoughts. Mindfulness-based therapy will teach you a new way to relate to your thoughts. You don't have to believe everything you think! Especially the bad stuff, becuse it's often not true.

Sometimes I debate what is harder. Struggling with depression or watching someone you love struggle with depression. The shame, the sadness, the hopelessness. It is almost more than anyone can take. The unfortunate thing about depression is that the only way to overcome it is through it. For someone struggling to make decisions and to find motivation this can almost seem like too much. But you do not have to go through it alone. I can offer you support and suggestions to make the process easier. And will be there to help pick you up no matter how many times you fall.

When experiencing depression it is hard to see the light at the end of the dark tunnel. Lightness can not exist with out darkness. By working together you can start to see the underlying issue or need is that is not being met, moving through the darkness and getting clarity around what it is trying to tell you. The bigger the breakdown the bigger the breakthrough.
