Depression Therapy in Vancouver: Rediscovering Your Full Spectrum

Depression often feels like the world has lost its colour. It’s more than just feeling 'sad'—it’s the heavy fog that makes getting through the day feel like an impossible task. At Chroma Counselling, we help you move through the grey and back into a life that feels vibrant and meaningful again.

Is this Depression? Understanding the Weight You’re Carrying

Depression is more than just feeling sad. It's a complex mental health condition that affects how you think, feel, and function in daily life. Depression can make it difficult to work, maintain relationships, and enjoy activities that once brought you pleasure. At Chroma Counselling, we understand that depression looks different for everyone. Whether you're experiencing your first depressive episode or have been struggling for years, our experienced psychotherapists in Vancouver provide personalized, evidence-based treatment to help you recover from depression.

Persistent sadness, hopelessness, or feeling "numb."

Our Approach: Beyond the Diagnosis

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all labels. Your experience of depression is shaped by your culture, your identity, and your unique history. Our Vancouver clinical counsellors use a 'Full Spectrum' approach to help you heal:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Evidence-based approach that helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviours contributing to depression.

Compassion-Focused Therapy

Develop self-compassion and reduce self-criticism, helping you build a healthier relationship with yourself.


Behavioural Activation

Gradually re-engage with activities that bring meaning and pleasure, breaking the cycle of withdrawal and low mood.


Mindfulness-Based Approaches

Learn to observe thoughts and feelings without judgment, reducing rumination and building emotional resilience.

Interpersonal Therapy

Address relationship difficulties and life transitions that may be contributing to your depression.


Trauma-Informed Care

For depression rooted in past experiences, we integrate trauma-informed practices to address underlying causes.

Support for Persistent Sadness & Low Mood
