“I keep trying to feel better, but the heaviness never really lifts.”
Do you feel weighed down by constant emotional heaviness?
Even simple tasks can feel exhausting. Getting through the day takes effort, and you may feel a persistent sadness, numbness, or emptiness that’s hard to explain.
Have you lost motivation or interest in things that once mattered?
Activities that used to bring joy or meaning now feel distant or unimportant. You might feel disconnected from yourself, others, or life, even when things seem “fine” on the outside.
Do you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward?
You may wonder why you can’t just “snap out of it,” feeling frustrated or discouraged by the lack of energy, clarity, or hope. Over time, this can leave you feeling trapped, tired, and alone in your experience.
At A Welcoming Home, we offer a safe, compassionate space to explore and understand what’s contributing to your low mood. Together, we’ll gently work on easing emotional heaviness, rebuilding motivation, and developing tools that support your energy, self-compassion, and sense of hope. Over time, you can begin to reconnect with yourself, regain a sense of meaning and balance, and move forward feeling more supported, capable, and grounded.
Rediscover your energy and hope.
Depression and low mood therapy can help you feel lighter, more confident, and supported as you rebuild balance, connection, and meaning in your life. Available in-person in Liberty Village, Toronto & online throughout Ontario.

Is Depression Therapy Right for You?
We support adults who are struggling with persistent sadness, low motivation, or feelings of emptiness that affect how they engage with life, work, and relationships. Whether your low mood has developed from past experiences, chronic stress, loss, or ongoing self-criticism, therapy can help you regain energy, hope, and a sense of balance.
Through individual therapy for depression and low mood, we help you work through:
Persistent sadness, emptiness, or numbness
Loss of interest or pleasure in activities you once enjoyed
Low motivation or difficulty getting through daily tasks
Fatigue, restlessness, or slowed thinking
Feelings of hopelessness, guilt, or low self-worth
Withdrawal from relationships or social situations
Difficulty managing emotions or coping with stress
Life transitions that trigger uncertainty or discouragement
Negative thought patterns that reinforce low mood
Patterns rooted in childhood, family dynamics, or past trauma
Therapy for depression and low mood can help you build emotional resilience, reconnect with your values and purpose, and develop practical tools to manage daily life. Over time, you can move toward a sense of hope, motivation, and balance - not just relief from symptoms, but a stronger foundation for wellbeing.
How Depression & Low
Mood Therapy Can Help
Depression and Low Mood Therapy can help:
Reduce persistent sadness, numbness, and emotional weight
Improve motivation, energy, and daily functioning
Understand and shift unhelpful thought patterns
Develop practical coping tools for low mood
Rebuild emotional resilience and hope
Reconnect with values, meaning, and wellbeing
OUR APPROACH INCLUDES:
-
CBT helps you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that reinforce sadness, hopelessness, or self-criticism. By learning to challenge negative thoughts and reframe them in more balanced, realistic ways, you can gradually change the emotional patterns that contribute to low mood.
-
Depression often leads to withdrawal from activities that bring enjoyment or meaning. Behavioural activation focuses on gently increasing engagement in positive and purposeful activities, helping you reconnect with motivation, energy, and life satisfaction.
-
Mindfulness and emotional regulation practices help you notice and respond to difficult feelings without judgment or avoidance. By developing awareness of your emotions and learning healthy ways to manage them, you can reduce rumination, ease emotional overwhelm, and cultivate a calmer, more grounded state of mind.
-
Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns may be influencing your current mood and behaviours. By gaining insight into these patterns, you can better understand underlying sources of distress and begin to make meaningful changes in how you relate to yourself and others.
Therapy with us isn’t about “snapping out of it” or rushing recovery - it’s about supporting you in healing, one compassionate conversation at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Depression Therapy
-
It can be hard to tell when sadness or low energy has crossed the line from temporary feelings to something that could benefit from support. If you’ve been feeling persistently down, empty, or unmotivated for weeks or months, or if your mood is making it difficult to enjoy daily life, work, or relationships, therapy can help. Even if you’re unsure, reaching out for a consultation is a gentle first step - you don’t need to have all the answers or feel “ready” to seek support. Simply exploring what’s happening for you can be empowering and bring clarity.
-
In therapy, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental space to talk about your feelings, thoughts, and experiences. Sessions are designed to meet you where you are, whether you’re struggling to get through the day or just want guidance to manage low mood more effectively.
Your therapist will listen deeply, help you understand patterns contributing to your depression, and work with you to develop practical strategies that support your emotional well-being. Together, you’ll build tools to manage stress, navigate challenging emotions, and reconnect with the things that bring meaning and purpose to your life.
-
Therapy isn’t about a quick fix or trying to erase feelings of sadness overnight. Instead, it’s about helping you understand your experience, develop practical skills, and build resilience so that you can navigate low mood more effectively. Over time, therapy can help you feel lighter, more motivated, and more connected to yourself and others. The goal is lasting support - creating real changes that help you regain a sense of hope, balance, and engagement in life.
-
Absolutely. Many people find that therapy works best alongside medication, although it can also be effective on its own. Medication can help stabilize mood, while therapy provides tools to manage emotions, challenge negative thought patterns, and rebuild energy and motivation. Your therapist can collaborate with your doctor or psychiatrist if needed, ensuring a supportive, coordinated approach to your care.
-
Low motivation is a common and understandable part of depression, and it doesn’t mean you’re “lazy” or “weak.” In therapy, we work gently with you, taking small, manageable steps to gradually build energy and engagement. Even tiny actions, like getting outside for a few minutes or doing a simple task, can be meaningful.
Over time, these small steps can create momentum, helping you reconnect with daily life, activities you enjoy, and a sense of purpose - all at a pace that feels safe and compassionate.
