Depression Counselling (Online Across Australia)

Depression can feel heavy — like you’re moving through life without energy, motivation, or clarity. You might feel sad, disconnected, exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward. Sometimes it shows up quietly, and other times it feels overwhelming.

Depression counselling offers a gentle, grounding space to talk openly, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and slowly reconnect with hope, energy and a sense of self.

You don’t have to go through this alone.

Understanding Depression

Depression affects people in different ways. You may experience:

  • persistent sadness or low mood

  • exhaustion or feeling “drained”

  • lack of motivation or interest in activities

  • emotional numbness or disconnection

  • difficulty concentrating

  • changes in sleep or appetite

  • self-criticism, guilt or hopelessness

  • feeling stuck, empty or overwhelmed

Depression is not a personal failure. It’s a signal that something in your emotional world needs care, compassion and support.

How Counselling Helps With Depression

In therapy, we move gently — without pressure or judgement — to help you:

  • understand the roots and patterns behind low mood

  • explore overwhelming feelings safely

  • reduce negative self-talk and self-criticism

  • process emotional pain or unresolved experiences

  • reconnect with values, meaning and identity

  • build coping skills and emotional resilience

  • create small, manageable steps toward wellbeing

  • feel less alone and more supported

Progress is gradual, and that’s okay. We move at your pace.

My Therapeutic Approach

I support people experiencing depression using an integrative, trauma-informed approach:

  • Person-Centred Therapy — empathy, connection and emotional safety

  • CBT tools — working gently with thought patterns and self-criticism

  • Emotion-focused and attachment-informed approaches

  • Self-compassion and grounding strategies

  • Values-based work to rebuild meaning and identity

Together, we explore your inner world with curiosity, not judgment.

Common Reasons People Seek Support for Depression

  • long-term sadness or low mood

  • burnout or emotional exhaustion

  • loneliness or disconnection

  • grief or loss

  • major life transitions

  • relationship or family stress

  • chronic stress or overwhelm

  • negative self-beliefs and self-esteem concerns

  • identity changes (migration, adulthood, parenthood)

Whatever you’re carrying, therapy offers a space to breathe and feel supported.
