Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
Embark on a transformative journey to break free from the grips of depression with my client-centred approach that acknowledges both the chemical and behavioural dimensions of this relentless mental health challenge. In my over two decades of experience, encompassing more than 17,000 hours of direct client contact, I have dedicated myself to unravelling the complexities of depression.
I firmly believe that the roots of depression often lie in the soil of childhood neglect and trauma, making it imperative to identify its origins for effective healing. Guiding my clients to develop insight is just the beginning; we then traverse the path of acquiring new skills to address the unmet needs at the core of their struggle.
As clients learn to meet these needs, the shackles of depression gradually loosen, and the joy of living is rekindled. I infuse the therapeutic process with friendliness and entertainment, fostering an environment that promotes faster and more positive results.
If this resonates with you, I extend an invitation to a consultation. It would be an honour to explore the possibility of collaborating on your personal journey of healing and growth. Together, let's navigate the terrain of depression and rediscover the vibrant life that awaits beyond its shadow.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Depression is not just sadness. It might be an absence of emotion, a sense of numbness, a feeling of being stuck without a chance of changing anything within one’s life. When depressed, energy just seeps away. Sometimes things matter too much, leading the mind to rehearse past wrongs and mistakes. Sometimes things do not matter at all, leading to thoughts of suicide. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for depression unfolds in three steps. First, behavioural activation helps us get moving and appreciate the impact that even such small changes can have on the mood. Second, adjusting our automatic thoughts and assumptions can help us get free from painful overthinking. Finally, once we get moving a little bit and learn how to gain realistic perspective on things, we get to concentrate on deeply held life lessons (core beliefs) that make us distrust our ability to take care of ourselves and hinder our ability to create meaning in our lives. As we work on these three stages, we always pay attention to thoughts of suicide. We can only recover from depression if we stay alive. Initially, we do so by creating safety plans. As treatment progresses, life starts making sense again and thoughts of suicide dissipate.

Tracy Nguyen Private Counseling Services
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker
Do you know anyone who takes anti-depressants and still feel depressed? I certainly do know lots of people like that. I strongly believe that it is because they haven’t dealt with the root causes of their problems. People tend to hang on to their pains until they find something they value more. What is wrong is always available. So is what is right. In order to heal, you need to have a safe place to mourn what you lost first. When you can make sense of your pains and problems, you can make peace with your past. What if life has always been happening for you, not to you? What if pains and problems were gifts? When you find the meaning, you can be free of the pain. Where you came from does not determine where you head to.
