Vicky Mould
Counsellor/Therapist, Accredited Professional Registrant (PNCPS Acc.)
While depression is a common human experience, the effects can be wide-ranging and vary from person to person. And it's not
always possible to turn to family or friends for support - through stigma, misunderstandings, judgement, or a perceived sense of weakness or failure. Are you struggling with depression/prolonged low mood? Are you battling suicidal thoughts and feelings, a sense of helplessness or despair? I have supported many people through their experience of depression, and I can be there for you in a non-judgmental, compassionate and empowering way. We can work together at your pace to relieve troubling thoughts and feelings, rediscover hope and gain a sense of control over your life. We can also work through life experiences or events that may be contributing to your depression or have triggered your depression. My goal in our counselling is to support and empower you to find your sense of wellbeing or recovery. If you'd like to explore depression counselling, please get in touch with me to arrange a low-cost consultation.

Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Depression often involves a profound disconnection from the body - a flatness or numbness that makes even basic engagement feel effortful. This work doesn't ask you to feel more before you're ready. It works gently with what's present - however little that might be - and creates the conditions for aliveness to return at the body's own pace, rather than on a timeline that adds another layer of pressure.
PS: For clients experiencing depression, I work outside the programme format - at your pace, without a fixed sequence or timeline.

Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
The Black Dog is what Winston Churchill called it. A disorder that causes immense suffering. The scientific evidence is that talking therapy is as good at treating depression as medication. The difference is of course that you don't have side-effects and the gains you make in therapy last you a lifetime. With medication when you stop taking it, the effect obviously stops too. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

Reading sits at the heart of England's Thames Valley tech corridor — home to Oracle, Microsoft, and Huawei's UK headquarters — creating consistent demand for therapists who work with high-performance workplace stress, burnout, and the psychological pressures of the technology sector. The town's proximity to London and easy rail access makes it a significant commuter hub, and therapists frequently address the particular stressors of long-distance commuting and work-life separation. Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust and Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust provide public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in the town center and surrounding suburbs. Reading's growing and diverse population — including large South Asian, Eastern European, and East African communities — is increasing demand for culturally aware and multilingual therapists.
