Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Therapy will place a strong emphasis on creating an empathetic space for clients to process and effectively manage depressive symptoms. The non-judgmental environment is designed to enable clients to safely explore and delve into the complexities of their depression. By applying evidence-based practices (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs, clients acquire the necessary skills for effectively managing their depressive symptoms. Whether the focus is on major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, or other related depressive conditions, the approaches can assist clients in alleviating the emotional burden of depression and progressing towards an improved quality of life.
Call for a free consultation. Medicare rebated sessions (obtained from a GP called mental health care plan) and private health insurance rebates session available.
Dimitri's experience extends to conducting psychological assessments and offering counselling support to Victims of Crime through (VOCAT), clients associated with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), Workcover clients, and those covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and has previously provided psychological support within prison settings.

Counselling and Psychotherapy Yarraville
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, BEd, BA, Dip T, Dip Counselling, Dip Hypnotherapy
It was predicted that by 2020, depression would be the world's second most serious illness. It reached that goal earlier. 'Depression' is a greatly misunderstood and misused term. We often misdiagnose what I call JU as depression. JU being Justifiable Unhappiness. We're not actually meant to be happy all the time. We end a relationship, lose a job, an adult child leaves home.... we are meant to feel a bit sad and unhappy. I work with people in all stages of unhappiness and depression to help them to reclaim their joy. And no. I am NOT, absolutely NOT anti-medication. Some medication can be life saving. Much of it is over-prescribed in the name of 'evidence-based medicine' when the people prescribing it, have no evidence other than that provided by the vested interests of the reps from the drug companies.

Depression
Ashore Wellness
Registered Social Worker, AASW, ACA
I support clients with depression by offering a compassionate and non-judgmental space to explore their feelings and challenges. Together, we work to uncover underlying patterns, build self-awareness, and identify pathways to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness, I help clients reconnect with their values, develop practical coping strategies, and cultivate hope. For those feeling disconnected from themselves or others, I integrate somatic techniques and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to foster a sense of wholeness and balance. My culturally sensitive approach ensures that each client’s unique experiences and identity are respected as we work together toward greater well-being and fulfillment.

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.

Dr Shikha Gray
Psychologist, PhD, MPsych(Couns)
For depression, I use a relational and attachment-based approach that fosters clarity of thought and self-compassion. An important aim of therapy is to increase motivation to engage in mood-enhancing behaviours and enhance/deepen social contact. I also support people in exploring any underlying issues or unresolved conflicts contributing to depression.

Depression
Penelope Aleyiannis
Licensed Professional Counsellor, B.Sc(Psych), M. Couns.
Depression can often be quite frustrating, long lasting and foster feelings of uncertainty. By drawing on evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions, I work with clients to identify the root causes of their depression, challenge negative thought patterns, and develop practical coping strategies. Together, we'll explore ways to foster self-compassion, build resilience, and find renewed purpose in life.
