Depression Counselling in Casselman, ON.

Depression affects millions—yet it can feel profoundly isolating, like a prison of heavy fog, helplessness, guilt, or numbness. You’re not alone: I’ve walked alongside countless clients and seen how therapy can puncture that solitude and lift shame. My goal is to bring empathy, in part shaped by my own life’s challenges, and a warm, non-judgmental presence. Using CBT to reframe unhelpful thoughts, ACT to make room for difficult emotions, and mindfulness to anchor you in the present, we’ll build practical skills and compassionate self-talk to dismantle hopelessness. The goal? To break through the barriers of shame and disconnection—helping you reclaim energy, purpose, and a sense of belonging

If you’re feeling down, having trouble enjoying things you used to, sleeping changes (sleeping too much or not enough), changes in your appetite (too much or not enough), or just feeling lethargic, you might want to see a psychotherapist and might feel depressed. Through CBT, DBT, and Narrative Therapy, you can see life in a better light, and get back to the life you want to. Book a free 15-minute consultation to start your healing journey.

As difficult as it may seem, I encourage you to take your first step and reach out today to book a consultation.

Depression is a sadness that accompanies us wherever we go stealing our experience of happiness and joy. Others often do not understand that depression has changed our vision of a colorful, vibrant world to one of varying shades of gray. Depression can make tasks that were once completed without much thought like taking a shower, brushing one's teeth, or even getting out of bed, feel like an overwhelming challenge. Activities and people that we once enjoyed, no longer bring pleasure. "Why can't I just snap out of it?!" I use an integrative approach to therapy providing an empathetic, supportive dynamic to empower you to change your emotional experience of life.
