Depression affects the way people think about themselves and their situations. People often describe depression as having a constant flow of negative thoughts, feeling hopeless, worthless, confused, numb, and unable to find a way to improve their emotional wellbeing. H-L Therapy staff listen to clients and assist them to build the understanding of what is happening to them and how to best overcome depression. Behaviour activation is one the cognitive behaviour strategies that is especially useful for depression. Interpersonal Therapy is also beneficial as it supports the clients to identify what is important to them, redefine their roles and expectations, develop a skillset to address interpersonal disputes and challenges and implement strategies to assist their emotional health.

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.

A low mood and sadness can be an understandable response to life circumstances and challenges but sometimes these feelings can persist and interfere with day-to-day life. Counselling can help by giving you an understanding of what is happening and introduce you to strategies to manage these feelings and resume meaningful engagement with life

I work with depression through a trauma-informed lens and work to help balance the nervous system from an exaggerated state on freeze and collapse and look to disrupt those patterns.
