Depression
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.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
I work with adults experiencing low mood, reduced motivation, withdrawal and difficulties with self-worth. Sessions explore how these concerns affect your routines, relationships and sense of direction. We consider grief, stress and other relevant circumstances, and identify manageable steps alongside the deeper therapeutic work.

Depression
The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
Low mood rarely travels alone. It commonly sits alongside anxiety, grief, a long-term health condition, or a neurodevelopmental difference that was never identified, and part of the early work is establishing which of those is actually driving things. We see adults, teenagers and children. In children it often shows up as irritability, withdrawal from activities they used to enjoy, or loss of motivation rather than visible sadness. Sessions are available in clinic and online, with Medicare rebates where a Mental Health Treatment Plan is in place.
