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.

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching

Depression is a result of being stuck in a situation which you do not know how to resolve or escape from, or is the result of not allowing yourself to express your feelings - perhaps because these feelings are unacceptable to you for some reason. We will help you to find and resolve the origins of your problem, ensuring that you regain a sense of freedom and are able to express your feelings freely.

Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Living with the cloud of depression is an isolating and often scary place to be. I can sit in that space with you and help look for relief. Often just having a safe and non-judgemental space can make such a difference.

Nicola Woods
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, UKCP, EMDR
Depression and low mood can feel debilitating. We will work together to unpack what triggers an episode of depression and how the nervous system responds. With this growing awareness, we can work to build resources to move beyond the paralysis of depression to finding more freedom.

Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Depression isn't sadness. It's exhaustion. It's going through the motions while feeling nothing. It's knowing you should care about things but not being able to feel it. It's functioning on the outside while being completely disconnected on the inside.
Some people describe it as numbness, others as a heavy weight they can't shake. Either way, it makes life feel pointless even when objectively things are fine. That disconnect is what we need to understand.
Depression often isn't about what's happening now—it's about patterns that got laid down years ago. We work to understand where the disconnection started, what purpose it served then, and why it's still running now. Then we can start changing it.
This isn't about positive thinking or forcing yourself to feel better. It's about understanding why your system shut down, and gently helping it come back online.
