Depression Therapy in Thunder Bay
Understanding Depression
Depression can feel isolating, especially when life keeps moving around you. You may feel unmotivated, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. In Thunder Bay, surrounded by nature and community, depression can often hide behind busyness, caregiving, or work demands.
Therapy offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help you understand what’s happening and take steps toward healing.
If you also experience worry, panic, or restlessness, you may find our information on anxiety therapy helpful.
