Dena Marie Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, RCC
Struggling to get out of bed, feeling numb or disconnected, going through the motions without really being present — depression can make even small things feel heavy. Using EMDR, I help you gently process the underlying experiences, patterns, or memories contributing to low mood, lack of motivation, or hopelessness, so their emotional weight starts to lift rather than just being managed day to day. Over time, this helps you feel more grounded, energized, and able to engage with life in a way that feels balanced and meaningful again.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Depression can leave you feeling sad, stuck, exhausted, disconnected, or like life has become harder to manage. You might be struggling with past experiences, current circumstances, worries about the future, or a sense that things aren't going to change. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to help you work through difficult experiences and emotions that may be contributing to how you're feeling. The goal is to feel less weighed down, feel more hopeful, and find more room to move forward.

Theodosia Daflos
Counsellor/Therapist, MA
While everyone feels down from time to time, the experience of clinical depression is something else entirely. Clinical depression can include many physical symptoms, like changes in energy, exhaustion, sleep problems, and body pains, as well as overwhelming negative thoughts that can make it difficult to think that you will ever feel better. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, we will slowly work on identifying these negative thoughts and slowly help you start doing the things that are important to you in your life, which breaks the cycle of depression.
