Depression and Low Mood

Some days, it can feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders — and it’s hard to imagine how you’ll keep moving forward.

If you’re struggling with depression or low mood, you might feel isolated, exhausted, or numb. Simple tasks can feel overwhelming. Joy and motivation may feel out of reach. And often, you can’t explain why — which only adds to the frustration and shame many people experience.

You are not alone. Depression is one of the most common reasons people seek counselling, and help is available.

Signs You May Be Struggling with Depression

You may be noticing:

  • Feeling tired or drained most of the time

  • Lack of interest in activities you used to enjoy

  • Difficulty focusing or making decisions

  • Feeling hopeless, stuck, or helpless

  • Trouble sleeping — either too much or too little

  • Changes in appetite or weight

  • Persistent feelings of sadness, emptiness, or numbness

  • Pulling away from friends, family, or social activities

  • Thoughts of self-criticism or worthlessness

If this sounds familiar, know this: you do not have to face it alone, and there are proven ways to feel better.

How Counselling Can Help

At BSB Counselling, I offer a safe and supportive space where you can work through depression and begin to reclaim hope, purpose, and connection.

Individual Therapy

In one-on-one counselling, we’ll explore what’s contributing to your low mood and develop practical tools to manage symptoms, rebuild motivation, and reconnect with what matters most to you. We’ll work at your pace — this is your space to be heard and supported.

Faith-Based Counselling

If faith is an important part of your life, we can integrate it into the counselling process. Many clients find that leaning on their faith and exploring spiritual practices can offer strength, comfort, and renewed perspective when facing depression.

Support for Men

For many men, depression is experienced quietly — behind closed doors, under the weight of expectations to "stay strong" and carry on. I work with men who may feel disconnected, burnt out, or trapped in patterns of self-criticism or emotional shutdown. Together, we can break the silence and equip you with tools to feel better and live more fully.

Moving Forward

You are not weak for struggling — you are human. And seeking help is a courageous first step toward healing.
