Depression
Andrea Wiebe
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Hello, I’m Andrea Wiebe, a therapist who supports individuals and couples experiencing depression. I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, understand the underlying factors contributing to low mood, and develop strategies for greater emotional resilience.
I help clients increase self-awareness, challenge unhelpful beliefs and coping patterns, and build confidence in their relationships and parenting. Together, we work to cultivate self-compassion, strengthen problem-solving skills, and reconnect with meaning and purpose in daily life.
My goal is to guide clients toward lives that are more balanced, connected, and fulfilling—empowering them to move beyond feelings of despair and toward renewed hope, joy, and authentic connection with themselves and others.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing depression, you may feel heavy, unmotivated, or disconnected from the things that once mattered to you. Even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. You might struggle with low energy, changes in sleep or appetite, negative thoughts about yourself, or a sense of hopelessness that is difficult to explain.
At Selah Counselling, we approach depression with compassion and steadiness. We understand that depression can be influenced by many factors, including life stress, loss, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and biological components. Together, we gently explore what may be contributing to your experience while building practical tools to support mood, structure, and regulation. Our work focuses on restoring rhythm to your days, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and reconnecting you to meaning and supportive relationships. The goal is not quick relief alone, but sustainable change that helps you feel more present, more hopeful, and more engaged in your life again.

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
Shanna Budzinsky
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Depression can leave us feeling hopeless and sometimes even the way our loved ones respond can actually increase our sense of isolation. In my work with clients experiencing depression, I focus first on understanding and appreciating each person’s unique story. Fostering a trusting and collaborative relationship creates an environment that feels safe to explore our emotions and paths to healing. Contact me today to start your healing journey.

Jonathan Snowball, Anxiety and Depression Psychotherapist in Ontario
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, MDiv
Depression can affect anyone and is treatable. As a mood disorder, it can alter a person’s feelings and interactions with the people and things around them.
Using approaches such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and interpersonal therapy (IPT), we can develop coping strategies together. We can work on learning positive skills that quieten negative inner commentary. As well we can look into ways of communicating better, speaking up for one’s self and addressing situations that worsen depression symptoms.

Michael Greene
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychologist College of Psychotherapists of Ontario
Depression is basically a lie about who you are. Treatment involves discovering your true, good self. Within this treatment we will help you learn to trust yourself and your feelings. We also will look at the different selves within you in order to help you manage yourself from within. In addition we look at family history where you began. I will teach you self care with tools and resources that will help you to speak to the part of you that is in pain in a way that comforts it and gives it a perspective that points you towards your true self. In this way you can become your own good parent. Depression is a wound that can heal. It does not have to be a life sentence.

Depression
Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Depression is a sadness that accompanies us wherever we go stealing our experience of happiness and joy. Others often do not understand that depression has changed our vision of a colorful, vibrant world to one of varying shades of gray. Depression can make tasks that were once completed without much thought like taking a shower, brushing one's teeth, or even getting out of bed, feel like an overwhelming challenge. Activities and people that we once enjoyed, no longer feel enjoyable. "Why can't I just snap out of it?!" I use an integrative approach to therapy providing an empathetic, supportive dynamic to empower you to change your emotional experience of life.

Depression
Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Depression can make even the simplest things feel heavy — getting out of bed, reaching out to others, or believing that change is possible. You might feel numb, disconnected, or tired of pretending you’re okay. In therapy, we’ll create space to understand the layers beneath your sadness and gently reconnect you with hope, meaning, and self-compassion. Together, we’ll explore small, steady steps toward healing — helping you rediscover moments of lightness, connection, and purpose at your own pace.
