Depression Therapy in St. Catharines
Understanding Depression
Depression can make life feel dimmer... you may lose interest in hobbies, feel disconnected, or find yourself running on empty. In St. Catharines, where community and family are central to daily life, many people struggle quietly while maintaining the appearance of coping.
Therapy offers a space to unpack what you’re feeling, understand your emotions, and start rebuilding hope.
If your low mood includes frequent worry, explore how anxiety therapy can complement your healing.
How Therapy Can Help
Our therapists use evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy: Shift unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new perspectives.
-
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy: Build emotional balance and resilience.
-
Cognitive Processing Therapy: Address unresolved experiences that may contribute to sadness.
-
