Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
I approach depression within its broader relational, psychological and social context rather than focusing only on symptoms. My trauma-informed and gender-sensitive lens considers how attachment experiences, disconnection, social expectations and protective patterns can shape depression differently across individuals, including how depression may present in men.

Thomas Reiner Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling (AIPC)
Depression is a big word with lots of possible meanings depending on the individual client. Initially, we will explore what depression means for the client and how it impacts their life. We will try to distinguish between depression as something that is uncomfortable but tolerable, and depression that infers with our day-to-day life to a level at which it needs to be managed proactively.

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.

Ronnie Adamowicz
Therapist, M.A. Psych
I approach depression through a somatic and relational lens, understanding it not as a personal failure or something to be “fixed,” but often as a protective response of the nervous system to overwhelm, loss, or long-held emotional pain. Depression can show up as numbness, exhaustion, low motivation, disconnection, or a sense of meaninglessness — experiences that are deeply embodied, not just mental.
In somatic psychotherapy, we work gently with the body’s signals to restore movement, vitality, and emotional contact at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Rather than pushing for positivity or insight alone, this approach supports gradual reconnection with feeling, agency, and self-compassion. Over time, clients often find increased energy, clarity, and a renewed capacity to engage with life and relationships.
This work can be especially helpful if depression feels persistent, if talk therapy hasn’t shifted things, or if you experience depression alongside anxiety or trauma.

Reeta Dabydoyal
Counsellor/Therapist, Certified NLP Master Practitioner, Master Life Coach, Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy, CDAA, NLPAA
You feel life is out of control, road blocks after roadblocks where everything seems to be going wrong. Has your stress level taken its toll in your life specially right now?
Experiencing depression can be quite debilitating and painful. Without appropriate intervention, depression can easily manifest to other emotional and physical symptoms. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients suffering from mental issues, workplace stress, depression and other emotional, physical related issues. My goal is to help you to break free from the stressful life changes, frustrations, self-doubt and low self esteem that are keeping you stuck. You will learn strategies how to overcome the inner conflicts, letting go of the old patterns, shift your mindset, manage your emotional state, and understand how to develop new empowering thoughts.
I use a variety of stress relief techniques and tools including Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Light healing, Emotional Intelligence, Guided Imagery, Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy, and Timeline Therapy to assist with overcoming any limiting beliefs, fears, and emotional blocks so you can step up to reclaim your power, rewrite your story and take charge of your life to become your BEST VERSION.
Life is too short to be unhappy. Imagine who would you become without your emotional baggage and liberate yourself from being a slave to your emotions?
If you are looking to create lasting change and would like to work with me, feel free to send me a message.
I look forward to connecting with you and making a difference in your life.
