Malika Chandra
Registered Psychotherapist, MPS, RP (Qualifying)
While everyone has felt various amounts of sadness and hopelessness, depression is different. It can permeate multiple aspects of your life including relationships, work, and friendships. It may feel isolating to not have the motivation to engage in simple activities, while others may have no idea why you feel the way you feel. However, there is hope and help is available! Together, we can slowly work through your thought patterns, emotions and behavior to turn the direction of the downward spiral. As difficult as it may seem, I encourage you to take your first step and reach out today to book a consultation.

Ryta Marie Peschka
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Can we transform emotional pain into personal growth and find hope? I can help you become aware of how certain negative automatic thoughts, beliefs and expectations contribute to feelings of anxiety and sadness. Often these automatic negative thought patterns are developed as a result of a past painful and difficult experience. They determine how we deal with loss, change, conflict and social interactions. Supporting you in identifying and understanding these thought patterns, can help resolve problems in maintaining relationships and establish a stronger sense of self-worth. Schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit for therapy.

Bonnie Nelson
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, MA(CP)(Distinct.), BA(Hons)
When life becomes too much it causes disconnection from ourselves as well as others important in our lives. But you’re not alone and you don’t have to navigate it alone. Psychotherapy can help clients rediscover their spark and purpose in life. Clients gain cognitive and somatic skills to combat shut down and dissociation symptoms.

of Salt & Sky Therapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Depression doesn’t always look like sadness. Sometimes it’s going through the motions, pulling away from people you love, losing interest in things that once mattered, or feeling exhausted by a life that looks perfectly fine from the outside. Therapy gives you somewhere you don’t have to pretend you’re okay. Together, we can begin making sense of what’s happening and finding small, meaningful ways back toward connection, purpose, and yourself.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
While working with depressed people my job is to emphasize security, structure, and learning.
My approach is to provide support and appreciation for your efforts as opposed to supporting more than frustration.
If you are a depressed person you are probably frustrating yourself enough as it is, am I right?
And it feels permanent! Well, it isn't.
During therapy you will first learn how to accept support from your surroundings.
Then you will learn to create a system of self-support with support.
Our work will centre around a primary task of creating a safe environment, a safe relational field, in which your self-healing powers can be activated.
Psychotherapy, on its own or with combination with antidepressants, is now known to be an effective treatment for depression" (Roubal, 2007).
The problem is you aren't going to solve anything laying in bed!
Come lay on my couch, with your unshowered self and let's be depressed together.
You don't have to do depressed alone.
Call me.

Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I support individuals experiencing depression by providing a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore difficult emotions, persistent low mood, and feelings of hopelessness or disconnection. Depression can make even small tasks feel overwhelming and impact your sense of self and relationships. Through an integrative, trauma-informed approach—including CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic therapy—I work with you to uncover root causes, build coping strategies, and gently guide you toward renewed motivation, self-compassion, and emotional healing.

Sharron Carson
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Struggling with mood disorders can make life very challenging. The most basic tasks can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. I understand this from personal experience as well as years of work with clients who are diagnosed with depression or bipolar disorder. It can be difficult to explain to others in our lives what it feels like to live with depression. I will validate and support you while helping you explore your feelings and find positive coping strategies that are the right fit for you. Book a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.
