Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming. If you're feeling stuck, unmotivated, or disconnected from yourself or others, you're not alone—and support is available. At Kalantar Counselling, we offer personalized therapy to help you understand your depression, develop coping strategies, and start feeling like yourself again. I offer in-person sessions in Downtown Vancouver and Port Coquitlam, serving the Tri-Cities, as well as secure virtual counselling throughout British Columbia.

Fatigue or lack of energy
