Depression Counselling in Deep River, ON.

Depression can be treated in both long and short term therapy using a number of approaches. Among them are hypnosis, DBT, behaviour activation and CBT. CBT has a strong evidence base to support mood elevation that often persists even after the therapy is finished. In CBT the emphasis is on the here and now, and how learning new thought patterns and actions can generate an improved mood. First clients are trained in how to become experts about their current automatic thoughts and then create and practice new patterns that have meaning for them. CBT is a gentle and fascinating discipline that involves homework and commitment but which can produce remarkably effective, lasting results.

Experiencing big emotional ups and downs is normal, but there can be times when it feels like the lows are getting longer, more frequent, and harder to deal with. Therapy should be a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone who offers you empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I work collaboratively with clients to explore how feelings of depression show up in their lives, and to strengthen and develop strategies to minimize the impact they have on living the life you want to live.
