Laura Romero
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych
Depression can be gripping. It can sometimes make people feel as though they are drowning and there is nothing they can do to save themselves. Through behavioural training and cognitive restructuring, we will work together to find a path where clients dealing with depression can learn to put one foot in front of the other, taking them in the direction they truly wish to go.

Kevin Ruddell
Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
Depression can sometimes be identified by recognizing that our mental, physical and emotional states are 'down.' Our moods are lower, eyes, shoulders and overall body language are down, energy is down, memory, focus and concentration are impaired among various other symptoms. Depression is often accompanied by negative thinking patterns which when understood and recreated can stimulate the mind to make changes which can then translate into improved mental, physical and emotional states.

Depression
Amy Sheffield
Psychologist, Mc(Psych), Registered Psychologist
Depression can become become so overwhelming it impairs our ability to fully participate in life or even perform the most basic and mundane tasks. It can make us feel uncomfortable in social situations or maybe even in our own skin. So how do we prevent depression from consuming us or preventing us from being our best self? The answer will be dependent on the person. However, it is often a combination of newly implemented coping skills, behavioural changes, mind/body techniques, cognitive strategies and trauma interventions that makes distressing depression symptoms manageable again so you can be the best version of you. I work collaboratively with clients from a CBT, DBT, EMDR or ART framework to determine which interventions will bring you the quickest relief possible from such symptoms of depression.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
Depression is more significant than just sadness. It lasts longer, and because it can affect people’s lives in many different ways, from their energy levels, ability to focus or work, their ability to eat and sleep, their anxiousness, irritability, emotionality, and their relationships, it can feel more frightening. Talk therapy has been shown to be highly effective for helping people to overcome depression, it helps people find ways to cope with everyday stressors. Talk therapy helps us to gain a new perspective on our problems, find our voice and begin to ask for what we need.

Laura Hall

Feeling low and sad everyday is exhausting and interruptive. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to address both the maladaptive thoughts and intrusive emotions that result from depression are at the forefront of my practice.

Shannon Loewen
Psychologist, M.Sc. Counselling Psychology
In our sessions, we will explore the factors that contribute to feelings of depression and low mood and practice skill-building. We can learn to identify and shift the thinking patterns, accept and process our emotions, and detach ourselves from any expectations that may be keeping us stuck. We can also learn new ways to relate to ourselves and support ourselves through depression.

Depression
Trudi Jane Wyatt
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RP, CT, CCC, CCTP
Have you been feeling more sad lately (or sad for a long time), or having some negative evaluations about yourself or others or the world/universe in general, or feeling unmotivated to get up and do things? These are some things people experience when they might be labelled or referred to as “depressed” and are common and very understandable experiences such as when life seems very dreary or difficult, and such as when there has been so much social isolation.
If this sounds like you, know that you are not alone in your struggle, and that for these experiences, there are people and strategies that can help improve your mood. Many clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are options available to once again have hope for a life with more joy and fulfillment.
If you are hoping to feel more like like yourself again — or to finally feel like yourself — I would be happy to meet with you and help you start to develop a plan in that direction.

Dustin Hogan - Men's Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
Depression is more than just feeling sad or down. You can't just "suck it up" or "tough out" when it comes to depression. Unfortunately, depression is incredibly common in men, and part of the reason for this is how society views depression in men.
Depression affects the way you think, feel and act, and depression can cause you to lose interest in activities you previously found enjoyable.
Even though depression can feel permanent, with the right tools and strategies, your life can significantly improve with treatment.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
In my experience, trying to describe depression to a person who has never experienced it is like explaining water to a fish, or air to a bird. When we feel well, we move through the world - are indeed, are positively pulled through the world - with a sense of optimistic expectation that is so innate that it's almost unnoticeable. But when we feel depressed, we feel that the invisible cords that normally connect us to other people, things, and activities have all be cut. How do we navigate life during these moments of isolation and meaninglessness?
