Licensed Professional Counsellor, B.Ed, MACP, MPCC
Stress is part of life, but depression does not need to be. How you respond to stress is the result of the story you have told yourself about life and success. If you've gotten stuck in your story then change can seem difficult, or even impossible. That is, wherever there is struggle there is a story that is stuck in a repeat loop. Depression is a story about the past stuck in a repeat loop.
If you’re having trouble getting ahead of your depression, know that relief is possible, and success can be inevitable. It is not that you can’t handle what life presents, it is that you need to learn how to not only create relief, effectively and efficiently, but learn how to create, sustain, and maintain happiness and peace. The goal is not less depression. The goal is to thrive. There is a therapeutic focus on creating happiness and peace, as well a relieving depression.
If you have been feeling as though you can no longer stay on top of the depression, know that change, relief, healing and happiness are possible.
Often these are the symptoms of depression:
Are you feeling hopeless, isolated and not your usual self?
Do these thoughts often enter your mind?
I am worthless and can’t do anything about it.
I feel guilty for just wanting to eat, sleep and be alone.
I hate who I am these days.
I can’t stop crying, which makes me want to stay away from others.
I feel gut-wrenching pain, but no one understands.
My life and the world around me are dark. I hate it, but I can’t change it.
If you have had any variation of these thoughts and don’t feel like your usual self, chances are you may be suffering from depression.
Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.
If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today

Psychologist, MC, Registered Psychologist
Your past does not have to be your future. At times it may feel like depression is taking over your life. But managing depression, and other emotions, is a learned skill. Often life circumstances prevent people from learning to manage their emotions. I can support you in learning to manage your emotions, and your depression, so that you can move forward with your life and make healthy choices. Please contact me if you would like to set up a free intake and we can get started on the process of helping you move forward with your future.

Russ Webb - Insight Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, RPC, MPCC
I have had the honour of working with many clients with depression, whether clinical depression or depression due to life circumstances, unresolved loss and grief, work stress, trauma, or difficulties in one's relationship with oneself. I typically use and existential and cognitive behavioural therapy perspective and to look at how one can improve their relationship with themselves, forgive themselves, and accept themselves. I also help explain the negative thinking patterns from a neurophysiological perspective in addressing how to change this negative experience from neurophysiological perspective, as depression is in the brain.
