Samantha Diminutto
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
Depression is another common ADHD-sidekick. At its root, repressing or pressing down deeply uncomfortable feelings can cause lethargy, hopelessness and pain. Art therapy is a fantastic way to shake loose some of the cobwebs and learn to create a better relationship with yourself - your values, your goals, and improving your relationships with others.

Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Have you been struggling to find fulfillment in life? And perhaps find it difficult to engage in tasks that you would usually enjoy? Depression is common among males and females and can be debilitating due to having thoughts and emotions that delay wellbeing. The therapeutic process involves examining some of the thoughts and emotions that maintain the depression. We also focus on behaviours that exacerbate the depression and what you could change in order to move away from the type of life that delays healing.
Through collaborative discussions and experiential exercises, such as diary keeping, derived from the cognitive behavioural model, I give you the opportunity to see how behaviours, thoughts, and feelings are interrelated, which can be extremely helpful in overcoming the vicious cycle of depression.
