Depression Counselling in Didsbury, AB.

At Wellness Centered we believe that depression is an extremely common condition which, statistics say, can affect more than one in ten people regardless of age, gender or historical background. Depression can be in response to a traumatic event or loss but often it occurs for no apparent reason. A depressed person may feel isolated and lonely and may think no one around them understands how they feel. Our aim is to help you resolve these feelings by helping you understand your depression and why it might be occurring in the first place and together identify and break the negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are interfering with your right to enjoy your life.

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.
