Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
When we're feeling depressed, it can be a sign that we're not managing some of the powerful emotions that we're experiencing. It can be easy to do nothing as we can experience a complete shut-down, even burnout. During therapy, we can talk about what's going on and come up with a better understanding of how our energy works when we're healthy.
Through our therapeutic alliance, we can help you identify the reason for your condition and come up with a better understanding of how to manage it. It can help you move towards a more balanced life.

Ruth Schmidt Neven Phd
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist and Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist
Depression needs to be carefully assessed with respect to identifying the difference between longstanding clinical depression and reactive depression arising from particular stressful and disturbing events. In the former, a risk assessment is part of my approach regarding suicidal ideation and the need to work collaboratively with other professionals. In both types of depression I place importance on the impact of early history and traumatic events

Karen Seinor
Counsellor/Therapist, MACA
First off, let's be real. Depression sucks. We're talking feelings of helplessness, despondency and dejection. When you're really depressed, you just cant get up and get moving. There can be:
• Anxiety
• Agitation
• A genuine feeling of unease
• A sense of displacement
• Feelings of physical discomfort - as in, not comfortable in one’s own body.
On a mental level, the thoughts can be negative, cloudy - even scattered. To friends and family, it might seem that the depressed person is not even trying to help themselves. In reality though, most people suffering with depression focus on what is not right, rather than what is.
This tendency to dwell on the problem, like cows in a paddock chewing their cud, is one of the biggest downfalls for anyone who is feeling blue. People like to tell themselves that if they understood the problem (whatever that happens to be), they would be able to solve it, feel better, or get things sorted.
Unfortunately, this is not the case. In fact, when you spend your time going over and over the problem, all that you do is build the problem, giving it more energy and life and as a result making yourself feel ever more overwhelmed by it.
In this state, trying to ‘fix’ the source of depression is often too steep a mountain to climb, but a combination of changes will most likely do the trick. Of course, this is a process, which means it will take a little time and effort, but it is do-able.
When you believe that you can't, you will get overwhelmed, feel depressed, and basically give up, sinking deeper into the depression. If, however. there is a plan, a strategic, step by step process you can follow, one in which there are small but measurable changes experienced, things begin to shift.
It may seem almost impossible to escape the fog of depression and have the clarity to make a plan. This is where therapy may help.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Depression has a deceptive timelessness where it can feel like things have always been this dark and will always be this dark. But that's not true. Nothing in nature remains static. Things are always changing. One season replaces another. It's important to remember this and to know, even in the darkest moments, that something different is possible.

Counselling and Psychotherapy Yarraville
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, BEd, BA, Dip T, Dip Counselling, Dip Hypnotherapy
It was predicted that by 2020, depression would be the world's second most serious illness. It reached that goal earlier. 'Depression' is a greatly misunderstood and misused term. We often misdiagnose what I call JU as depression. JU being Justifiable Unhappiness. We're not actually meant to be happy all the time. We end a relationship, lose a job, an adult child leaves home.... we are meant to feel a bit sad and unhappy. I work with people in all stages of unhappiness and depression to help them to reclaim their joy. And no. I am NOT, absolutely NOT anti-medication. Some medication can be life saving. Much of it is over-prescribed in the name of 'evidence-based medicine' when the people prescribing it, have no evidence other than that provided by the vested interests of the reps from the drug companies.

Whether the focus is on major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, or other related depressive conditions, the approaches can assist clients in alleviating the emotional burden of depression and progressing towards an improved quality of life.

You feel life is out of control, road blocks after roadblocks where everything seems to be going wrong. Has your stress level taken its toll in your life specially right now?
Experiencing depression can be quite debilitating and painful. Without appropriate intervention, depression can easily manifest to other emotional and physical symptoms. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients suffering from mental issues, workplace stress, depression and other emotional, physical related issues. My goal is to help you to break free from the stressful life changes, frustrations, self-doubt and low self esteem that are keeping you stuck. You will learn strategies how to overcome the inner conflicts, letting go of the old patterns, shift your mindset, manage your emotional state, and understand how to develop new empowering thoughts.
I use a variety of stress relief techniques and tools including Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Light healing, Emotional Intelligence, Guided Imagery, Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy, and Timeline Therapy to assist with overcoming any limiting beliefs, fears, and emotional blocks so you can step up to reclaim your power, rewrite your story and take charge of your life to become your BEST VERSION.
Life is too short to be unhappy. Imagine who would you become without your emotional baggage and liberate yourself from being a slave to your emotions?
If you are looking to create lasting change and would like to work with me, feel free to send me a message.
I look forward to connecting with you and making a difference in your life.
