Depression Counselling in Strathroy, ON.

Depression can be debilitating for an individual to live with as it takes over their life and is not something they asked to have and are confused with why they can't get out of the rut. As a therapist, I know it is important to start where the client is at as well as recognize when implementing strategies of change is important. My approach is to offer Cognitive Behaviour Therapy where you will learn coping skills and in a safe environment be exposed to situations that will increase your self awareness to the point you are able to manage the emotions.

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.

Depression leads to disconnection: disconnection from the closest people who love you, from your environment, from your own feelings and emotions and ultimately from being engaged in life. Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness are the earmarks for depression. I have a very high rate of success working with people with depression. My approach is eclectic.

My approach to depression counseling is client-centered and psychodynamic, helping men explore the deeper emotional patterns and unconscious influences that contribute to their struggles. Depression often stems from unresolved emotions, past experiences, and internalized beliefs that shape self-perception and relationships. In therapy, we work together to uncover these underlying factors, helping you gain self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier coping strategies. By addressing the root causes—not just the symptoms—you can break free from negative cycles, improve emotional well-being, and cultivate a greater sense of purpose and connection.
