Depression Counselling in Faraday, ON.

Depression is an insidious companion, and can creep its way in without us realizing for some time. Shifting a depressed mindset can be extremely difficult but neuroimaging studies have shown that by practicing mindfulness we can begin to alter those well-trodden neural pathways and shift our neurochemistry by promoting the production of neurotransmitters linked to feelings of happiness. Psychotherapy can help you identify mindfulness activities and other tools that can help to promote the production of these neurotransmitters and deliver results rooted in neuroscience. I can offer an alternative perspective and act as the catalyst you need to begin making the shift out of depression.

Depression affects more than just your mood — it can drain your energy, diminish self-esteem, disrupt relationships, and make life feel hopeless. You don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll explore the root causes of your depression, such as loss, stress, or unconscious patterns, and work toward healing, self-acceptance, and restoring a sense of meaning and vitality in your life.

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.

Depression has the ability to severely impact our daily lives, often making small everyday tasks difficult.

Navigating depression can feel really lonely and scary, but I am here to walk that journey with you and to help you reconnect with your passions and joys.
