Jo-Anne Stoltz, Ph. D., RCC
Registered Clinical Counsellor
In V1N 1Y4 - Nearby to Trail.
I use a Bio-psycho-Social approach to depression, meaning the whole person is taken into account. Together we look at the client’s physical health (diet, sleep, exercise, meds) to assess how the basic functions and systems might be contributing to or protecting from depression. We also explore together their cognitive processes, such as underlying beliefs about themselves. And we look at the emotional and social supports in their lives— is there at least one person they can count on when in distress? I tend to move back and forth organically between two levels: the underlying and historical root causes of depression, and present-day coping skills.

Depression can be an overwhelming sense of sadness and hopelessness. It can also come with or without a clinical diagnosis. Through therapy we will begin to explore the sadness and what it means in the context of your life. We will explore the unique rules of sadness and depression and exceptions to sadness and depression. We will utilize interventions from Response-Based Practice, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

When one is depressed the range of thoughts and feelings encompass a wide spectrum. Sadness and despair might be pervasive. One can feel as if they have fallen into a deep dark pit where everything is covered in negativity and hopelessness. In this state, one can feel inadequate, discouraged, unable or unwilling to make decisions. In addition, guilt, shame, profound low self-esteem and loss of interest in relationships, sex, career and even life itself are commonly found. A variety of evidence-based tools, specific to the needs of the individual, applied skillfully at the right time, can dramatically lift one out of that deep, dark pit and help avoid relapse.
