Depression/Mood Disorders
We help children and adolescents manage negative thoughts and feelings to develop healthy mood-regulation skills
What is depression?
Clinical depression is a mood disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and thoughts of worthlessness and hopelessness.
Depression is often accompanied by a loss of interest or pleasure and withdrawal from activities and interactions previously enjoyed, interfering with daily functioning.
How we can help
Psychologists at Red Oak support people with depression by teaching healthier patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions using evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), DBT strategies and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT).
