Depression can feel overwhelming, leaving you drained of energy, hope, and motivation. In depression counselling, I offer a safe, compassionate space to share your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

Drawing on evidence-based approaches like CBT, EFT, and mindfulness, I help clients challenge self-defeating beliefs, build coping skills, and reconnect with sources of meaning and joy. My goal is to support you in creating lasting, positive change.

Sometimes we cannot explain how we feel to those around us. And sometimes we feel 'bad' because we don't have a reason for how we feel. We can feel alone, and not understood. Let's take a nonjudgmental lens to what we are feeling, thinking, and doing. From here we can regain some control over our emotions, and over our life.

Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and exhausting. In my work, I provide a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can safely explore their feelings at their own pace. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, I help clients gently understand the emotional, relational, and life experiences connected to their depression. Using a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic approach, we pay attention to present-moment experience, including thoughts, emotions, and body sensations. I also support clients in rebuilding daily structure, self-compassion, and small achievable steps toward change. Through this process, clients often gain greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and a renewed sense of m

Struggling with mood disorders can make life very challenging. The most basic tasks can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. I understand this from personal experience as well as years of work with clients who are diagnosed with depression or bipolar disorder.

I will validate and support you while helping you explore your feelings and find positive coping strategies that are the right fit for you. Book a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

One of the most well known aspects of mental health, depression, often gets confused with “being sad”. Depression can zap an individual’s energy, while also leaving them with a sense of hopelessness and helplessness. Unchecked, depression can be very dangerous, sometimes leading to individuals to consider suicide. Luckily, depression can also be countered through counselling, where an individual can identify and counter the various thought patterns that contribute to their depression, while also fostering hope.

Depression can make life feel heavy, repetitive, and disconnected from priorities and joy. In working with depression, I integrate ACT, cognitive behavioural strategies, and narrative therapy to help clients understand the patterns that keep them stuck while building pathways back to engagement with life.

Clients benefit from learning practical tools to loosen the grip of self-critical thinking, reconnect with important people and activities, and rebuild a sense of direction.

Depression can leave us feeling hopeless and sometimes even the way our loved ones respond can actually increase our sense of isolation.

Depression is a result of non-processed grief, which itself comes from a sense of loss. It is the mechanism through which the mind tries to “take it easy” and focus on the loss. However, in today’s society, we do our best to avoid it or even deny it. Sometimes, we take the easy way of medication so that we do not face this darkness inside. A successfully therapy accompanies the client through this journey of introspection and creates supportive environment in which the client faces the loss.
