Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 32932
There are genuine reasons why we feel depressed or taken over by a low mood or despairing mindset. Some of those could be from how we were shaped by our environment in early childhood, some of them could be factors at play today. Depression can sometimes be representative of unprocessed grief, and sometimes it can be a learnt physiological state originating from a very young age.
As an integrative psychotherapist, I work with you to understand what those reasons are, and how we can transform them into new ways of being. This means collaborating with you in creating a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.
As an experience of low energy or 'hypoarousal', depression can sometimes be linked to our attachment years. So the work might involve deep visualisations to create an internal sense of security in relationships (Integrative Attachment Therapy). The work might involve tracking beliefs and experiences that have led you to distance yourself from social life or particular people or places and protect yourself through a depressive response.

My approach involves helping you look at your internal world- your thoughts/beliefs and patterns of behaviour (created early in life and replicated in your current challenges) and connect with the underlying emotions, so you can experience a changed relationship to self and others.

Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Therapy will place a strong emphasis on creating an empathetic space for clients to process and effectively manage depressive symptoms. The non-judgmental environment is designed to enable clients to safely explore and delve into the complexities of their depression. By applying evidence-based practices (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs, clients acquire the necessary skills for effectively managing their depressive symptoms. Whether the focus is on major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, or other related depressive conditions, the approaches can assist clients in alleviating the emotional burden of depression and progressing towards an improved quality of life.

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.

Renee McDonald
Therapist, B Couns (Coaching), Grad Dip Couns, M App Soc Sc, Cert IV TAE, Cert IV BE (Community)
Depression itself can be quite pervasive and hard to shift. Through working through your problems gently, with either gentle counselling, or ongoing psychotherapy, most depressive symptoms can shift. I've found great change can happen through the power of listening to your concerns and working through new ways of being with the gentle hand holding of counselling or psychotherapy.
