Depression
Andrew Robertson
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.

I have worked extensively with people who are experiencing depression. I work alongside my clients to unravel the multitude of events which have usually led to them feeling so low.

Mr Michael Green
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, Somatic Psychotherapist, Yoga Therapist, Meditation Teacher
My work focuses upon an holistic view of the individual and their history. This means our focus is less upon individual 'symptoms' and alleviation of these, and more upon what the 'symptom' might be communicating about imbalance in the individual. This leads on to an examination as to what needs to change at the level of body, mind, emotion and spirit.

First off, let's be real. Depression sucks. We're talking feelings of helplessness, despondency and dejection. When you're really depressed, you just cant get up and get moving. There can be:
• Anxiety
• Agitation
• A genuine feeling of unease
• A sense of displacement
• Feelings of physical discomfort - as in, not comfortable in one’s own body.
On a mental level, the thoughts can be negative, cloudy - even scattered. To friends and family, it might seem that the depressed person is not even trying to help themselves. In reality though, most people suffering with depression focus on what is not right, rather than what is.
This tendency to dwell on the problem, like cows in a paddock chewing their cud, is one of the biggest downfalls for anyone who is feeling blue. People like to tell themselves that if they understood the problem (whatever that happens to be), they would be able to solve it, feel better, or get things sorted.
Unfortunately, this is not the case. In fact, when you spend your time going over and over the problem, all that you do is build the problem, giving it more energy and life and as a result making yourself feel ever more overwhelmed by it.
In this state, trying to ‘fix’ the source of depression is often too steep a mountain to climb, but a combination of changes will most likely do the trick. Of course, this is a process, which means it will take a little time and effort, but it is do-able.
When you believe that you can't, you will get overwhelmed, feel depressed, and basically give up, sinking deeper into the depression. If, however. there is a plan, a strategic, step by step process you can follow, one in which there are small but measurable changes experienced, things begin to shift.
It may seem almost impossible to escape the fog of depression and have the clarity to make a plan. This is where therapy may help.
