Individual Therapy in Muskoka Region
One of the most debilitating yet common mental conditions that exist today is depression.

Forming a relationship with a patient – one of trust and understanding can be therapeutic. This is followed by a joint effort in understanding the core reason behind the depression and offering possible solutions for it.

Benefits of Therapy
Being mentally fit is just as important as being physically fit. Therapy can help you attain good mental health at any age. A therapist helps a person take care of their mental health like a doctor treats a physical sickness. Untreated mental illness (such as depression) may raise the risk of a variety of physical illnesses.
- Development of coping skills: Therapy assists a person in understanding unpleasant events and developing appropriate coping methods. A therapist can help patients to develop coping strategies for overcoming adversity. Therapy also helps the discovery of repressed emotions that contribute to physical and mental illness.
- Improvement of interpersonal relationships: Many people are unable to form healthy relationships as a result of negative experiences in the past. This could set off a chain reaction of unhealthy relationships. A therapist can assist patients to go free from their negative memories and fears. This allows patients to move forward in life without unpleasant feelings. Therapy also helps in the development of healthy and happy relationships.
- Accepting being yourself: Therapy can assist a patient in being more comfortable with their own thoughts, objectives, and feelings. It instils the virtue of "self-acceptance", encouraging people to accept themselves as they are.
