Depression can look different for everyone.
For some people, it’s loud and overwhelming. For others, it’s quiet, heavy, and isolating. Our support is tailored to your individual experience and may help with:
Persistent low mood, hopelessness, or emotional numbness
Loss of motivation, confidence, or direction
Overthinking, guilt, or feeling like a burden
Burnout, stress, or emotional shutdown
Depression alongside trauma, neurodiversity, or life transitions
You don’t need to be “at breaking point” to reach out. If things feel heavier than they should, that’s reason enough.
This support may be accessed through private arrangements or relevant funding pathways where applicable.
We use a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and practical approach to depression support.
This means:
You are treated as a whole person, not a diagnosis
Sessions are paced to suit your capacity and energy
Strategies are realistic and usable in everyday life
We focus on understanding patterns, not judging them
We also support autistic and neurodivergent individuals experiencing depression, burnout, emotional exhaustion, or low mood linked to masking, trauma, or life transitions.
Where helpful, we support you to build coping tools, emotional regulation skills, and greater self-understanding — without overwhelming you.
A confidential, non-judgemental space
Individualised support tailored to your needs
Practical strategies alongside emotional support
Ongoing care that adapts as you progress
Your first step can simply be a conversation.
No pressure. No obligation. Just a chance to talk and see if this feels right for you.
The free 15-minute consultation is an opportunity to talk, ask questions, and see whether our approach feels right for you. It is not a counselling session or assessment.
We provide specialised counselling for various forms of depression, including clinical depression, situational depression, and persistent low mood, tailored to your unique needs.
We start with an initial consultation to discuss your background and challenges. Together, we create a personalised plan with regular follow-up sessions to monitor your progress and adjust strategies as needed.
You don’t need to have the right words, a clear explanation, or a plan. Many people start counselling feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or unable to put things into words. That’s okay. We’ll go at your pace, and part of the process is helping you make sense of what you’re experiencing — even if it feels confusing or hard to describe.
If you are in immediate danger or at risk of harm to yourself or others, please call 000 straight away.
