Among other things, depression is a stagnation, a lack of forward motion. I side with the cognitive behaviour therapists, who say that behavioural activation is a valuable treatment. Learn about what activities bring you joy or peace or relief. Then, give those activities a larger role in your life. I could just say "activity" over and over here, because that is what will help most. Activity, activity, activity...

When I counsel clients with depression, I focus on helping them become aware of their thoughts and feelings without judgment. I use mindfulness techniques, like meditation and breathing exercises, to encourage them to stay present and observe their experiences. This practice helps reduce rumination and promotes acceptance of difficult emotions. By fostering mindfulness, I guide clients to detach from negative thought patterns, build resilience, and develop a balanced perspective, enhancing their ability to cope with depressive symptoms.

Depression can arise from specific life events, or it may appear without an obvious cause. In therapy, we work to understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—three key areas that can also serve as points of change. Together, we’ll explore how certain thought patterns or behaviors may be reinforcing your current state, and whether underlying beliefs or cognitive distortions are shaping your inner dialogue. By identifying and gently challenging these patterns, we can begin to replace them with more balanced and supportive ways of thinking and living. We’ll also look at external factors or habits that may be contributing to how you feel and explore strategies to shift them.

Therapy is a place for all matters of the heart, body and soul. Depression can range from mild to completely disabling, and the root causes varied and individual. While medical support can be helpful, therapy can help us get to the root of what we are emotionally 'depressing'. I believe in the mind/body connection which includes both, helping a client to access practical tools for coping day to day as well as exploring the deeper emotions stored in the body that might be contributing to the depression. From a deeply compassionate and client centred approach within the therapeutic connection the client feels less alone offering them hope as they navigate their depression.

Different therapeutic modalities can be used to examine thought patterns and your ability to emotionally regulate; an open dialogue can help explore alternative beliefs and perspectives that may serve you better. A closer examination of how your thoughts, feelings and actions are impacting your overall wellbeing can help create a treatment approach that may include coping skills and lifestyle adjustments, while building capacity to sit with negative emotions and move through challenging times.

Depression is like a dark shroud that hovers over a person's existence making each day a perpetual struggle. Life in general is disrupted. The smallest daily life routine becomes impossible. People may be predisposed to depression, but there is not a gene that predetermines whether a person will experience the effects of the disease. The four pillars of healthy living include: developing a balanced eating plan; engaging in regular exercise, instilling good sleep hygiene and social connection. Cognitive Behaviour tends to be the gold seal approach when a client present with symptoms of depression. Other modalities also serve to help the client manage his/her/they depressive episodes.

Feelings of depression can originate from many different sources, including issues related to addiction, the effects of addiction, infidelity, difficult childhoods, dysfunctional families of origin, and the impact of past hurts and coping patterns. By offering a setting that is based on trust, empathy, and collaboration, counselling can provide you with a safe and supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions while creating a deeper, more authentic understanding of who you are, what you need, and the dynamics that you are navigating. It is possible to thrive and be well no matter what you have been through, and counselling can help with this.

If depression could speak, it would say "why bother?" Depression leaves us feeling unmotivated, hopeless, and negative about ourselves and our potential. In counselling, I provide a compassion-focused approach to treating depression that will help you to increase your sense self-worth and build motivation to mobilize yourself. I believe that when treating depression, it is essential to explore emotions such as anger, guilt and shame that often perpetuate a defeated and empty state. Doing so can feel uncomfortable, but is ultimately liberating. Many of my depressed - even suicidal - clients report that therapy has helped improve their mood and take meaningful action in their lives.
