Grounded Space Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Graduate Diploma Trauma Informed Processwork Psychotherapy (Process Oriented Psychology), Diploma Counselling, Somatic Experiencing Cert II/III
Depression is multifaceted and can include feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a disinterest in activities once enjoyed. It can manifest physically through changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, and fatigue, impacting daily functioning and relationships.
I offer a non-judgemental space to navigate difficult emotions and situations and bring empathy and understanding to the complexities in life that depression can arise from. I acknowledge the uniqueness of each person's journey and provide compassionate, holistic care that empowers individuals to overcome obstacles and get to the root cause of their depression.

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.

Clients can suffer from depression chronically or intermittently. Depression can be an isolating condition and oftentimes is present with other physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health issues. I work with the client to help them to unpack their experience of depression, holding space for their pain, hurt and discomfort in order to increase their distress tolerance and enable them to live the kinds of lives they would like to.

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

Our Depression Counseling and Mentoring for Individuals and Couples in Relationships is designed to address the unique challenges that depression brings into a relationship. Recognizing that depression not only affects the individual but also their partner, our therapy focuses on both personal and relational healing. We provide a compassionate space where individuals can explore the impact of depression on their own life, and where couples can learn how it affects their relationship dynamics. Our approach integrates individual therapy to address personal struggles with depression, alongside couples therapy to enhance understanding, communication, and support within the relationship. We employ techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, couple-focused interventions, and empathy-building exercises, aiming to foster a supportive partnership where both individuals feel valued and understood, ultimately creating a stronger bond and a shared path to overcoming challenges.

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.
