Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Depression often reflects a system stuck in freeze or collapse, and SE and ISP together offer a gentle path back toward aliveness. SE works with the body’s shutdown response by reconnecting you with small impulses, sensations, and moments of vitality, helping the nervous system slowly move out of immobility. ISP adds emotional integration by building capacity to stay with feelings like heaviness, sadness, or numbness in a safe, tolerable way. Together, they support a gradual return of energy, emotional movement, and a deeper sense of connection to yourself.

Tony O'Loughlin
Registered Psychotherapist, GradDip Psychotherapy, BA (Social Science), Trauma Informed Somatic Facilitator, PACFA member
Low mood or depression is sometimes a sign that we are not living an aligned life, that something isn't right, that something is missing or that we are stuck. What if you could be curious and be open to the possibility of its wisdom?

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.

Hobart is Tasmania's compact capital and the smallest of Australia's state capital cities, with a mental health landscape shaped by the challenges of geographic isolation, an ageing population, and a slower-paced economy relative to mainland Australia. The city has a vibrant creative and arts community, and arts-based therapeutic approaches have found a particularly receptive audience here, while the surrounding regions of rural Tasmania face more significant access challenges for which telehealth has become essential. Mental health services in Hobart are available through Tasmania's public system and a private sector that, while growing, is smaller than in larger Australian cities; wait times for publicly funded care can be considerable. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, seasonal mood changes, and the life transition challenges experienced by those who relocate to or from Tasmania.
