Joe White
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Depression is a common but debilitating condition that affects thoughts, feelings, and daily functions, leaving individuals feeling drained of energy and hope. It can cause sleep problems, appetite changes, and increase the risk of suicide. Regardless of whether the cause of depression is known or unknown, like loss or ongoing disappointment, it's important not to face it alone. I provide various treatment options such as CBT, ACT, or EMDR to help individuals deal with their depression.

Mary B Rodenhurst
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA, BSW, MSW RSW
I was trained in IPT at the Centre of Addictions and Mental Health (CAMH) in Toronto, at the Department of Psychiatry University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and in Group IPT at McMaster University Department of Psychiatry School of Medicine. I trained and supervised Psychology Interns, Psychiatry Residents and Social Work Students in Interpersonal Psychotherapy. IPT is a method of treating depression and is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on you and your relationships with other people. It's based on the idea that personal relationships are at the center of psychological problems.
Depression often follows changes in one’s interpersonal environment (e.g., struggle with a significant other, loss of a loved one,life transitions such as divorce, job loss, postpartum or inability to maintain or develop social connections). Once depressed, symptoms can lead to compromised interpersonal functioning, which can precipitate continued stressful events. The goal in therapy is to address both the stressful life events and improved social support.
IPT focuses on improving problematic interpersonal relationships or circumstances that are directly related to the current depressive episode.

Depression can have many causes, much of it situational and due to unhelpful thinking patterns. I use behavioural activation and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) techniques to help you improve your day to day functioning and find more joy and fulfillment in life.

Kathy Roberts, London, Ontario
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Despair. Moodiness. Sadness. Emptiness. Irritability. Fatigue. At some point, we all experience these feelings in our lives. But when these symptoms are intense and long-lasting ... when we lose interest in things and activities we once enjoyed ... when its leads to trouble with memory, eating and sleeping ... it is important to take action. The best way to deal with depression is by a combination of lifestyle changes, therapy and (often) medication.
The therapy part is where I come in. I'm Kathy Roberts, a caring, experienced, qualified therapist. For over 30 years, I've supported people with depression. So reach out. Explore your feelings with someone who listens and understands. I'll support you as you take practical steps to reduce the impact and severity of your depression. And I'll help you learn and apply effective ways to deal with your unhealthy emotions, thoughts and behaviors.
With proper treatment, therapy and personal commitment, most people with depression experience significant improvement in their symptoms and their feelings of happiness and fulfillment.
My website [ krcounselling.ca/depression ] has lots of great information about the warning signs, symptoms, causes and treatment of depression. It also has useful tips about how to help someone who is depressed, and why and how caregivers should care for themselves. Finally, it explains how and why talk therapy is so useful for someone who is depressed ... and what to look for in a therapist.

Patricia Berendsen & Associates Trauma Healing Centre of London Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Marriage and Family Therapist
Psychotherapy can be like a light shining onto the dark night of depression. Specific situations may cause us to feel sad and lethargic. Sometimes our feelings are ’stuck’ and need to be expressed. Depression can also be organic in nature and may need to be supported by medical interventions such as anti-depressants. Both of these treatments can be effective in the healing process of depression.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Depression is a pervasive mental health disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in activities. It goes beyond typical mood fluctuations and can significantly impact daily functioning, affecting sleep, appetite, and energy levels. Individuals experiencing depression may grapple with negative thoughts, low self-esteem, and difficulty concentrating. It is a complex condition with various contributing factors, including biological, psychological, and environmental elements. Seeking professional help, such as therapy or medication, can be crucial in managing depression. With proper support, individuals can work towards understanding the underlying causes, developing coping strategies, and gradually reclaiming a sense of well-being and purpose in their lives.
