Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Anger turned inward, often results in depression. Yes there are bio chemical causes for depression, but in my 25 year plus experience, depression is almost never simply a brain chemistry issue. And as a holistic psychotherapist, I find that people who have mild to medium depression can often overcome it with a combination of talk therapy, unpacking family of origin messaging, unpacking low self value as well as inner exploring of believes.. All this, in addition to bringing in natural amino acid supplementation. This combination has been immensely effective in neutralizing the beast that depression can be.
Note: If a client has suicidal ideation, a person does need to have a medical person on their team to navigate possible allopathic medication to create the very important brain balance they need to be able to unpack some difficult therapeutic content.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Depression is a common yet serious mental health condition that profoundly affects how someone feels, thinks, and navigates daily life. It often shows up as a lingering sadness, a loss of interest in activities that once brought joy, and an overwhelming sense of hopelessness. If you or someone you know is experiencing depression, it’s important to understand that these feelings are valid and can be incredibly challenging to manage.
Many individuals also face physical symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, and difficulty focusing, which can further complicate their experiences. Depression not only impacts personal well-being but can also strain relationships and hinder work performance, making everyday life feel even more daunting.
While the causes of depression can differ from person to person—often stemming from a mix of genetic, biochemical, environmental, and psychological factors—what's crucial to remember is that you are not alone. Recovery is possible, and there are effective treatment options available. Therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes can all play a role in managing symptoms and fostering healing.
Reaching out for help is a courageous step, whether it’s connecting with a mental health professional or leaning on supportive friends and family. Embracing support is vital, and taking that first step towards healing is something to be proud of. Remember, you deserve compassion and understanding as you navigate this journey.

Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
An important thing to remember when facing depression is that it is moveable, changeable. Depression, in my experience, can change with processing what has happened in your life and understanding your response to the impact it has had on your life. It often involves processing that which takes place between the trigger and then the natural response to avoid/get rid of or push away the pain. With a little help the awareness of feeling state can be understood; often it has to do with our relationships and learning how to stick up for ourselves and repair. This is where Mindfulness and Meditation comes in and also self-compassion. For more on self compassion; see Chris Germer and also Kristen Neff.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
The weight of depression can have many roots. A relational therapy approach prioritizes what's been missing or even harmful in the connections in your life—both personal relationships and societally. Lack of intimacy, care, safety, or validation can impact our sense of self and make the world feel unendingly dark. Depression can be a lonely place, so I'll be interested in connecting with what depression feels like for you specifically. Then we can collaborate to understand how depression has developed and what's contributing to it now. I approach depression as an understandable reaction to experiences such as isolation, loss, and discrimination. I also want to support you to process those experiences in a way that brings you into closer connection to yourself and others. Depression can keep life small and empty. Together, we'll explore how you can find a richer life, inside and outside of depression.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Depression and mood dysregulation are one of the cornerstones of my practice. Are you bogged down by sadness, numbness, heaviness or painful thoughts? Has your pain brought you to a point where life no longer feels worth it or you need to engage in harmful behaviours just to cope? Perhaps you are feeling hopeless about the state of the world and unsure how to continue daily living. I use a blend of emotion regulation, self-compassion and narrative strategies to help you manage the lows, rewrite your story about yourself and the world, as well as rediscover joy and purpose.

Depression is an invisible and often lonely cage with its own rules that are manifested through debilitating body sensations, lack of appetite and sleep that are stealing away your ability to feel your emotions and the zest for life you once had.

Together we will work on finding coping strategies and techniques that will help you to shift your perspective, soothe your body, regulate your emotions and restore your desire to live a meaningful and fulfilling life.
