Depression hurts and is becoming epidemic in our society. However, depression is a treatable condition and there are effective approaches that can help you break the cycle of chronic unhappiness so you can keep moving forward, learn how to face life’s challenges with greater resilience and regain a sense of well-being. I work from the best evidence- based therapies for depression: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Interpersonal therapy (IPT), Solution Focused Therapy and Art Therapy to help you overcome the mental habits leading to despair, rumination, and self-blame so you can repossess the sense of hope, joy and life balance.

It's been called the dark night of the day, the noon-day demon, the blues - whatever label you want to give it, depression is difficult, emotionally exhausting and, at times, a disempowering mental health challenge that impacts millions of Canadians annually. Often Men struggle silently with depression for various reasons, not the least of which is the stigma associated with asking for help with mental health, and as such their depression can go unnoticed as they attempt to handle it alone. I help men to better cope with their depression by working together to build the strategies that work for them, so they can find a way through the darkness of their thoughts and reclaim a sense of hope.

In my work with depression, I focus on creating a safe, steady space where clients can bring forward even the most difficult feelings without pressure to “fix” them right away. I understand depression not only as a set of symptoms but as a signal of disconnection—from oneself, others, or a sense of meaning. Together, we explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, helping clients reconnect with vitality, self-understanding, and agency. My approach balances empathy and gentle challenge, supporting gradual movement toward renewed engagement with life.

I understand this from personal experience as well as years of work with clients who are diagnosed with depression or bipolar disorder. It can be difficult to explain to others in our lives what it feels like to live with depression. 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.

Depression is often a response to having experienced profound psychological pain. It is a way for us to retreat or numb ourselves from the overwhelming emotions of such stressful circumstances. It acts as a protective shield in a way. In therapy, we will work towards addressing the underlying sources that are contributing to feelings of deep sadness. This can be a difficult task and as such it can be helpful to include strategies alongside our reflective work which may include CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Behavioural Activation. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

There is an epidemic of depression and anxiety in our time. From an ecotherapy perspective, there is a lot of discussion about ways our current lifestyles promote depression. Whether it is our pace of life and expectations around productivity, our loss of a sense of deeper community and connection, a loss of a sense of purpose, or a deeply felt but unacknowledged sense of disconnection from the earth we depend on. I find that in subtle moments outside, we discover a rooted aliveness of tuning in to who we are, our deeply felt connections with all of life, and perspective on a greater purpose working through us. It is in facing the depression that we can come to embrace greater meaning.

While we all have days where we feel sad and 'depressed', if it goes on day after day so that negative thoughts make us feel exhausted, powerless, empty, discouraged and hopeless, then we need help. Leaving depression untreated can lead to several physical and mental complications and even suicide. Fortunately, trained counsellors can assist us in retraining our mind and teach us new skills to challenge depressive thinking so that we can lead a confidently depression free life.

Can we transform emotional pain into personal growth and find hope? I can help you become aware of how certain negative automatic thoughts, beliefs and expectations contribute to feelings of anxiety and sadness. Often these automatic negative thought patterns are developed as a result of a past painful and difficult experience. They determine how we deal with loss, change, conflict and social interactions. Supporting you in identifying and understanding these thought patterns, can help resolve problems in maintaining relationships and establish a stronger sense of self-worth. Schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit for therapy.
