Depression Counselling in Greely, ON.

My approach to treating depression is informed by personal experience and guided by a blend of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Logotherapy, and Existential Therapy. There are multiple paths to Depression, and therapy is effective when it uses the tools best suited to treating the underlying cause (ex. loneliness, meaninglessness, medical disorder, etc.).

Therapy can be a place where clients can explore the blocks they are experiencing to feeling ok. Sometimes such things as early childhood experiences, trauma [recent or historic], challenging work situations, feeling overwhelmed in life, and interpersonal and relationship struggles can contribute to feeling disempowered, hopeless, helpless, numb, exhausted, and disinterested in life. Being able to feel supported, to explore and come to understand what is happening, to explore the body's and the nervous system's role in how one is feeling, to speak freely can often help.
