Depression
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.

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.

Depression
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.

Depression
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.

Tony O'Loughlin
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, GradDip
Low mood or depression is sometimes a sign that we are not living an aligned life, that something isn't right, that something is missing or that we are stuck. What if you could be curious and be open to the possibility of its wisdom?

Penelope Aleyiannis
Licensed Professional Counsellor, B.Sc(Psych), M. Couns., ACA-L2
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.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Depression has a deceptive timelessness where it can feel like things have always been this dark and will always be this dark. But that's not true. Nothing in nature remains static. Things are always changing. One season replaces another. It's important to remember this and to know, even in the darkest moments, that something different is possible.

Anna McKie
Registered Psychotherapist, DipSomPsych., DipEd., BSc.
Depression is often a symptom of feeling disempowered and unsafe at a deeply unconscious level. We can work together safely and respectfully to understand and explore this and it's origins, and find ways to enable choice and empowerment in a healthy and safe way
