What sessions feel like
You are noticing the impact of anxiety and depression in your life
Many of us have developed coping strategies to manage our anxiety and depression. Sometimes, these coping strategies spiral out of control, and they end up creating more problems than solving the ones we already have. Folks find themselves withdrawing from friends and family, spending copious amounts of time on social media and online, drinking more frequently, smoking cannabis more regularly… the list goes on. People come to therapy to talk about their anxiety and depression when they realize it’s time for a change.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is psychotherapy for anxiety and depression?
Psychotherapy for anxiety and depression is a process that helps you understand how anxiety and depression is impacting your life and how to better engage in actions and behaviours that lead you towards feeling better. This involves talking about life events and factors that can be contributing to your anxiety and depression and collaborating together to create ways to engage in your life in more meaningful, values-driven ways that bring you in touch with vitality and purpose.
How is this different from other forms of therapy?
The difference is the starting point. With therapy centered on your experience of anxiety and depression, you already know you are experiencing anxiety and depression, and are agreeing to engage in psychotherapy to work on anxiety and depression.
How long do people stay in this kind of therapy?
It depends on the individual. Some people find having a therapist to come to over a long period of time to be helpful. Others might feel like they simply need 3-6 sessions. It all depends on your needs and what you want from therapy.
