Depression
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
It doesn't always look like sadness. Sometimes it looks like going through the motions, feeling flat, always irritable, or wondering why nothing seems to land the way it used to. Depression has a way of making everything feel heavier and further away, including the idea that things could be different. I work with people to understand what's underneath it and find a way back to themselves.

Depression
Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
Depression often manifests as numbness, disconnection, and a sense of flatness that talk therapy alone cannot reach. By working with your body, breath, and creative expression, we activate the neural pathways that support vitality, connection, and meaning. Nature connection, somatic awareness, and spiritual context help restore a sense of aliveness and purpose. You don't need to just manage depression—you can move beyond it.

Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
My strategy for Depression treatment is, it takes time, and sometimes it might feel overwhelming or frustratingly slow. That is normal. Recovery has ups and downs but with patience and perseverance, you can manage it controllably. Therapy for depression is long-lasting and will help you balance your debilitating emotions more healthily, reclaiming a sense of joy and fulfillment in your life. Mindfulness Techniques are very useful for Depressive symptoms.

Depression
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Depression can feel heavy, isolating, and hard to put into words. It might show up as a persistent low mood, lack of motivation, exhaustion, or a loss of interest in things that once felt meaningful. Even simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and many people find themselves feeling stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by self-criticism.
In our work together, we’ll move at a pace that feels manageable, creating a space where you don’t have to carry everything on your own. Rather than just trying to “push through,” we’ll explore the underlying experiences and patterns connected to your depression with curiosity and care. I take a holistic, trauma-informed, and attachment-focused approach, supporting both your emotional world and your nervous system.
I draw from approaches such as ACT, Adlerian Therapy, IFS, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and EMDR, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll develop practical, compassionate strategies to help you navigate difficult moments while also making space for deeper healing and change.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach and see if we’re a good fit.

Liz Dean
Registered Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
Depression is a deep hopelessness that colours and crowds out other things that are important to us. I can help you untangle your depression so you can see it clearly and understand how it impacts your self view, as I find the worst part of depression is that it is often misinterpreted by the self and others as a lack of effort or care and can lead to low self-esteem and self-blame. Anxiety can feel like a constant battle through negative thoughts, feelings or body sensations that crowd out other things that are important to us. I can help you untangle your anxiety so you can understand and see it and how it impacts your self view as I find the worst part of anxiety is that it is often misinterpreted by the self and others as a lack of effort or care and can lead to low self-esteem and self-blame. My goal is to help you hold all of this and help you find a new path forward.

Shannon MacGregor
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, RTC, MTC, RCS, NARM Therapist
Depression is a low mood that lasts for a long time, and affects your everyday life. It starts as sadness. If prolonged, it then feels like you’re shutting down and becoming less capable of coping. Eventually, you’ll feel numb and empty, and possibly suicidal. Effective treatment can be a mix of psychotherapy, medication, and lifestyle changes.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing depression, you may feel heavy, unmotivated, or disconnected from the things that once mattered to you. Even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. You might struggle with low energy, changes in sleep or appetite, negative thoughts about yourself, or a sense of hopelessness that is difficult to explain.
At Selah Counselling, we approach depression with compassion and steadiness. We understand that depression can be influenced by many factors, including life stress, loss, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and biological components. Together, we gently explore what may be contributing to your experience while building practical tools to support mood, structure, and regulation. Our work focuses on restoring rhythm to your days, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and reconnecting you to meaning and supportive relationships. The goal is not quick relief alone, but sustainable change that helps you feel more present, more hopeful, and more engaged in your life again.

Depression
Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Depression can feel like a heaviness that slows you down, disconnects you from yourself, and makes even simple tasks feel overwhelming. In therapy, I help you understand this experience through both a cognitive and somatic lens—how your thoughts, emotions, and body responses interact, and how they can be gently shifted. Using mindfulness‑based practices, somatic awareness, parts work, CBT, and humanistic and narrative approaches, we work together to increase self‑regulation, soften the internal shutdown, and reconnect you with a sense of vitality and meaning. My aim is to help you feel more present, more supported inside yourself, and more connected to your vitality.

Depression
Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
A depression is more than sadness - it's when we struggle to help ourselves shift ourselves. Here it is helpful to begin with behaviour and cognitive examinations to help us mobilise the kind of energy we need to live a fulfilling life.
