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.

Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, Advanced Clinical Skills in Gestalt Psychotherapy
What a person means by 'depression', and what underlies whatever that experience is, is hugely individual and personal. While the challenge and way forward will be different for each individual, I tend to find that what we call depression is more often than not our internal compass - or to be more poetic, our soul - trying to get our attention to alert us that something is wrong and a changeof course is needed. For that reason, I believe the pain and suffering involved in depression can play a meaningful role and carry with them the seeds of a deeper, richer and more satisfying life, if we are willing to attend to them.

Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
Depression isn't just sadness, it's heaviness. It's the fog that makes everything harder, the exhaustion that makes getting out of bed feel like climbing a mountain, and the voice that whispers, "What's the point?" You're not lazy. You're not broken. You're carrying a weight that was never yours to hold alone.
Hypnotherapy offers a gentle path back to the light. In a safe, quiet space, we work with your subconscious to lift the fog, piece by piece. We don't rush. We don't judge. We simply help your mind remember what it feels like to hope again.
