Men’s Depression Counselling in Vancouver & Online
It’s Not Just Sadness, It’s Feeling Like You’re Disappearing
Let’s be real: depression doesn’t always look like tears or lying in bed all day. For a lot of men, it shows up differently, such as low motivation, constant irritability, trouble concentrating, or just feeling emotionally flat.
Sometimes it feels like you’re dragging yourself through the day with no real purpose. You might still be doing “all the right things” on the outside—work, relationships, staying busy- but inside, you feel like you’re barely holding it together.
Or maybe you’re starting to notice that you’re not really feeling much at all.
You’re Not Broken—You’re Carrying Too Much, Alone
Many men are taught to deal with life silently. To power through. To “figure it out” alone.
But depression doesn’t respond to silence. It feeds on isolation, self-judgment, and the pressure to hold it all together.
Here’s the truth: depression is not a personal failure. It’s a signal, your system saying, “Something isn’t working anymore.”
And you don’t have to keep carrying it alone.
What Depression Might Feel Like for You
Not every man experiences depression the same way, but here are some common patterns:
If any of that sounds familiar, it doesn’t mean you’re weak. It means you’re human, and maybe it’s time to get support.
How Counselling Can Help
Counselling provides a space where you don’t have to pretend. A place where we work through what’s underneath the numbness, the frustration, or the sense of being stuck.
My approach combines presence, compassion, and honest reflection. Together, we’ll:
Make sense of where your depression may be coming from
Work with shame, fear, grief, or early wounds that might still be in the background
Reconnect you with parts of yourself that got buried or shut down
Build tools for managing emotional pain without avoiding or numbing
Help you feel more agency, meaning, and confidence in your life again
Why Work With Me?
I bring a grounded, no-BS approach that’s warm, honest, and rooted in real experience. I’ve supported men from all walks of life: CEOs, tradesmen, creatives, fathers, students, who are navigating depression and the deeper stuff that often comes with it: trauma, shame, loneliness, emotional numbness, or identity shifts.
My work is trauma-informed, emotionally intelligent, and shaped by my own journey through depression, disconnection, and ultimately reconnection.
This is not a quick fix. But it is a place to finally exhale and be met with compassion, insight, and support that’s built for you.
You Don’t Have to
“Wait Until It Gets Worse”
Whether this is your first time seeking help or you’ve tried therapy before, if something inside you knows you can’t keep living like this, that’s enough.
Let’s start with a conversation.
