Halifax, NS Physician Provides Mental Health Coaching For Chronic Depression Brain and mental health consultancy DocChristine Coaching now provides therapy programs for chronic depression. Many aspects of your life can contribute to depression, including your spiritual purpose, emotions and thoughts, finance and work, social and relationships, and physical wellbeing.  As you might have experienced, growing rates of depression across the US were only exacerbated by the pandemic.  DocChristine Coaching suggests that, in many cases, life coaching can create the positive changes you need to address those terrible, grey feelings. The consultancy’s programs are designed to provide actionable advice that improves your quality of life. You should also know that you certainly aren’t alone. According to Mental Health America, almost 20% of adults in the US experienced mental health problems just prior to the pandemic, equating to nearly 50 million people.  However, the organization also reports that more than half of those people, or 27 million adults, do not receive any treatment. Are you in that boat? You might be concerned about taking anti-depressants, but DocChristine Coaching states that recovery from chronic depression does not necessarily entail taking medication.  Indeed, the center’s solutions focus instead on the formulation of a customized life strategy plan that provides you with natural techniques to improve your sense of wellbeing. The program includes an in-depth assessment of your past, along with a review of any lab test results and reports. You then participate in bi- monthly extended coaching sessions, each lasting 2-3 hours.  Between those sessions, daily 15- minute homework assignments reinforce your agreed strategy and ensure you continue to make progress towards clear skies. Founded by retired MD and ND, Dr. Christine Sauer, DocChristine Coaching aims to help people optimize their brain and mental health, and in doing so, lead happier and healthier lives.  Programs offered include high- efficiency individual coaching, ‘Recover Your Sparkle’ group and individual sessions, parental coaching, life strategy, and more.
