Alexandra Elias
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
If you are struggling with overwhelming feelings of sadness that impact day to day functioning, you may be suffering from depression.
Beyond feelings of sadness, other symptoms might include being in an irritable mood, loss of interest or pleasure, feelings of guilt, low self-esteem, difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite, loss of energy, and/or difficulties concentrating.
These symptoms impair a person, preventing them from living their lives at school, work, or at home.
At its worst, depression leads to thoughts about ending one’s life.

FREE consultations! When we are feeling depressed it can feel as nothing will help, not even therapy. Depression can take the joy and colour out of life and paint a vision of a future for us where nothing seems to matter and no hope seems to be coming. Our minds can focus on the problems that we are experiencing in the present moment and tell us that these problems are fixed, unchangeable, and overwhelming. No amount of 'trying harder' seems to work; neither does the suggestion others might give us to 'snap out of it.' If only it were so easy. While depression can feel unmoveable; psychotherapy is an evidence-based way to tackle feelings of depression. This is true regardless of whether you are experiencing passing negative mood states that you want to improve or going through a full-blown depression episode. Psychotherapy helps. Approaches such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can give us new ways to approach the exhaustion, tiredness, and hopelessness that often come along with depression. It's not about trying harder; it's about working differently, learning new ways to work with the thoughts, feelings, and automatic behaviours that come along with depression that set up a vicious cycle bringing us in further negative mood states. If you are struggling with depression, I can help. I will provide you with a non-judgmental, understanding, and caring space to explore what's going on for you. We'll also set goals for our work together and using evidence-based approaches and strategies start to move towards a future where depression continues to fade into the background and your life, dreams, goals, and future seem real and hopeful again. I offer a free no obligation phone consultation and would be happy to work with you.

Riki Stopnicki
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Seeking treatment for depression can be an intimidating endeavor. Frequently, the depression itself becomes a barrier. A person grappling with depression may experience feelings of being overwhelmed, exhaustion, and hopelessness. They may also unfairly place blame on themselves or their circumstances for their emotional state. These symptoms and thoughts are common companions to depression, making it challenging for individuals suffering from depression to vocalize their struggles, seek assistance or trust that treatment can provide relief. I use evidence based treatment approaches such as CBT, behavior therapy and interpersonal therapy. During episodes of depression, negative thought patterns, such as self-doubt and guilt, frequently exacerbate the problem. Cognitive behavioral therapy endeavours to gradually dismantle these patterns, allowing individuals to cultivate improved self-perception and experience an overall sense of improvement.

Kevin Greene, Health & Happiness: Counselling and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
While everybody will feel sad and even depressed, depression is something different. My focus is on helping a person who is feeling depressed to avoid sliding into true depression. When a person has depression, we work together to identify the cause(s) of the depression and what is keeping it going. Then we can try to figure out how to reduce the symptoms and move towards a happier life.
