Depression
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Depression is often an expression of emotional loss, internal conflict, and blocked vitality rather than a problem to be treated only at the level of symptoms. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration, somatic awareness, and hypnosis to understand how sadness, withdrawal, and numbness are shaped by early relational experience and lived in the body. Together, we work toward restoring emotional movement, self-understanding, and a renewed capacity for connection and aliveness.

Depression
Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
I can help you understand the patterns that maintain depression and gently challenge the thoughts that keep you stuck. Together, we’ll develop practical coping strategies, work on reconnecting with activities and people that matter to you, and address any underlying wounds or experiences that contribute to your depression. We’ll also pay attention to self-compassion—learning to treat yourself with the same kindness you’d offer a friend.
Depression can be isolating, but recovery doesn’t have to be a solitary journey. You don’t need to have it all figured out before reaching out. Wherever you are right now is a valid place to start.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard

Depression is one of the most common mental health difficulties people experience nowadays. Having worked therapeutically with people for over 14 years, I have come to witness how there could be various causes, as well as manifestations of depression.
I offer a psychotherapeutic space where we can start thinking about your personal experiences, in order to make better sense of why you have come to a point of feeling depressed and what is preventing you from moving forward.

Depression
Kyle Davies
Psychologist, BSc MPhil CPsychol AFBPsS
In modern society, the word depression is used to describe experiences ranging from low mood and sadness to a complete inability to function. Depression can manifest as extreme fatigue, cognitive dysfunction and suicidal thoughts.
Statistics tell us that one in six to a quarter of us will suffer from mild to severe depression at some point in our lives. Mild to severe depression can last from a few days to many years. Often there are no clear-cut manifestations of the depression that outsiders can observe, and this compounds the problem because people don’t understand what you are experiencing.
No two people’s experience of depression is exactly the same, and it can be very difficult to understand why the symptoms are even present much less what to do about it. Having experienced depression firsthand, I know what the experience is like and how debilitating it can be. I have now successfully treated sufferers of depression for over 20 years and have drawn heavily on my personal experience and the lessons it taught me.
Depression symptoms can manifest themselves in many different ways and can also increase gradually over time making them harder to detect in the early stages. The symptoms can be wide-ranging and the symptoms can appear to be constant and relentless. Your symptom experiences may well include:
low mood
hopelessness
lack of motivation
confusion and a sense of being lost or stuck
loss of appetite, weight loss, or weight gain
cognitive dysfunction – ‘brain fog’, inability to concentrate and memory loss
sleep disturbance
loss of pleasure and interest in life
agitation
fatigue and lack of energy
suicidal thoughts
weakness
aches and pains
Loss of libido
I’d like to be very clear, we often think that when we experience symptoms there is something wrong with our brain. While this can be the case, a more useful way of looking at symptoms for the condition of depression, is that your body is seeking to get your attention, to let you know that something is not quite right. You are NOT broken, your body is working perfectly normally, it is simply alerting you to the fact that you’ve become disconnected from YOU and something needs to change. Opening up to a new understanding and making that change is well within your own capability.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
Feelings of low mood and depression can strongly impact the way a person feels about themselves, the people around them and the world in general. Like anxiety, depression can be extremely debilitating. I specialise in treating these experiences by first attempting to make sense of where the distressing feelings come from.

Lisa Sanfilippo
Therapist, MA, MSc, UKCP, MBACP
Helplessness, hopelessness, low energy and no motivation can be ways our nervous system deals with overwhelm from the past or present. These can be part of a protective, learnt state- wanting to do nothing, to seemingly switch off or 'go dark'. Working with depression in therapy, we don't just talk about what's going but learn how you come 'back to life' at your own pace. I take a multi-dimensional approach to helping you uncover the roots of your depression, looking at physical, energetic, mental and emotional levels.

Depression has different ways of being approached. Depression and Alexithymia can be what is found suppressed with or without anxiety and other co-occurring expressions. We can offer parts work, functional support, distance TCM integration, application of an intersectional model to address ongoing depression from abusive/oppressive impacts or stored impacts...Sometimes the co-occuring condition needs care and compassionate meeting, e.g. in cases of chronic health challenges. Sometimes a more creative approach brings folks back on line from depression. Since our focus is CPTSD care, we often work with depression from a parts perspective for the last 14 years.

If you are feeling low, or depressed I can help you by integrating behavioural, cognitive and interpersonal approaches with relaxation, visualisation and guided imagery techniques. Contact me for a free consultation to feel more motivated, with a clear plan how to begin to solve your problems. Contrary to common belief, depression is not primarily a biological illness, inherited through the genes. Nor is it the setbacks, crises or tragedies in our lives that cause depression. It is our response to adverse events that determines whether we get depressed or not. Research shows that people most likely to suffer depression are those who react to adversity by taking it personally, seeing all areas of their lives as blighted by it, and the misery as going on forever. Depression is always a second and unnecessary problem, and just makes problematic circumstances worse. This is good to know because it means that, instead of feeling helpless or hopeless, people can learn to take back control over their lives. They may not be able to change certain circumstances but they always have options about how they react to them.
The symptoms of depression include low mood, loss of interest or pleasure in usual activities, loss of appetite and energy, sleep disturbance, feeling agitated or lethargic, worthless or guilty, difficulty in thinking straight and having repeated thoughts about suicide. Antidepressant drugs may help some people because they lift levels of a ‘feel-good’ chemical in the brain; unfortunately, they do nothing to change the underlying circumstances or thinking patterns that led to the depression. Depression is always related to unmet essential emotional needs and that is why the human givens approach, which focuses on helping people in distress find healthy ways to meet their emotional needs, is so successful.
Depressed people may seem deflated and flat but, in actual fact, they have raised levels of a stress hormone called cortisol, which means that they are in a state of constant high emotional arousal. When our emotions are aroused we can’t think rationally, so this is why people deep in the grip of depression can’t concentrate well or even make simple decisions. Learning simple relaxation techniques to calm themselves down will start reducing those cortisol levels.
The main reason that depressed people are so emotionally aroused is that they spend a vast amount of time worrying about the future or beating themselves up about past events. Perhaps they still feel guilty about something that happened recently – or years ago; perhaps they are frightening themselves with dire ‘what if?’ scenarios (likely or unlikely), in which loved ones encounter dangers or they themselves lose their jobs or their homes; perhaps they feel beaten down by chronic pain or anger (“Why did this have to happen to me?” “How could he have been so cruel?”); or maybe they experience a combination. They also have a huge tendency towards negative thinking – “I’ll never be good enough”; “I’ll never cope”; “nothing ever goes right”; “the pain will only get worse”. All this kind of negative imagining and thinking saps an enormous amount of energy – and makes people utterly miserable.
Far from feeling more refreshed after a night’s sleep, most people with depression wake up next day still exhausted and feeling totally unmotivated. It is hard for them to get out of bed and do anything at all. We now know why this happens. Psychologist and co-founder of the human givens approach Joe Griffin carried out research over many years which showed that, when we dream at night, we are discharging unexpressed emotional arousals from the previous day. If earlier we were upset about something our spouse did or didn’t do, but kept it to ourselves, we would later dream that out, perhaps in the form of getting angry with someone else (dream content is never straightforward); that would have the desired effect of lowering our levels of emotional arousal, so that we can start next day afresh, even though we are unlikely to remember we had the dream. (If we did express our feelings with our spouse at the time, we wouldn’t need to dream about it. And, of course, if we wake up and remember what our spouse did or didn’t do, we may get emotionally aroused about it all over again, requiring more dream discharge that night, if we still don’t resolve it.)

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Depression can affect every part of life, including motivation, energy, self-worth, relationships, hope, and your ability to feel connected to yourself or the world around you. It can leave you feeling flat, overwhelmed, numb, stuck, or exhausted by simply getting through the day. My approach is compassionate, thoughtful, and grounded in understanding your inner world rather than reducing you to a diagnosis. Together, we can make sense of what may be sitting underneath the depression and help life feel more manageable and meaningful.

Delphine Marina Psychotherapy and Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
Depression can feel like a disconnection from yourself, others, and the life you once knew—sometimes experienced as numbness, fatigue, or a quiet sense of collapse. It may show up as a loss of meaning, motivation, or joy, but beneath the surface, it often carries unspoken grief, unmet needs, or buried parts of the self. In therapy, we don’t rush to fix or pathologise—we listen with compassion to what the depression might be protecting, expressing, or calling for. Together, we make space for reconnection, vitality, and the slow return of hope and self-trust.Whatever your experience, depression is not a personal failure. It’s a sign that something in you is asking for attention, care, and space to breathe again.
