Therapy for depression
Feeling low?
It's okay to not feel okay. Let's work together to find a way forward.
What depression feels like
Depression and low mood can show up in different ways. You might:
Feel constantly tired, numb, or drained - even after sleep
Lose interest in things you used to enjoy or feel disconnected from others
Struggle to focus, make decisions, or find motivation
Be caught in cycles of self-criticism, worthlessness, or hopelessness
Notice changes in appetite, sleep, or the way you care for yourself
Depression can make you feel isolated, but you don’t have to face it alone.
There is a way forward.
How therapy can help
Depression can make it hard to see a way out—but with the right support, change is possible. Therapy can help by:
Providing a safe space: a place to talk without judgment or pressure.
Understanding your triggers: identifying what might be contributing to low mood.
Breaking negative thought patterns: learning to shift self-criticism and hopelessness.
Finding practical ways to cope: developing tools to manage daily life, even on the hardest days.
Why work with me?
I’ve spent over 20 years helping people navigate depression and low mood. My approach is:
Compassionate: you won’t be judged for how you feel.
Practical: we’ll find strategies that make everyday life more manageable.
Tailored to you: therapy should fit your needs, not the other way around.
LGBTQI+ friendly: a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself.

Each session lasts 50 minutes, whether in person or online. This gives us time to explore what’s going on for you, at your pace, without feeling rushed.
That’s completely okay. Therapy is a personal process - if it doesn’t feel like a good fit, we can talk about what’s not working. Sometimes a different approach, or even a different therapist, can make all the difference.
Yes — I offer secure online sessions if you’d prefer to talk from home. It’s a flexible, accessible way to get support.
We’ll take some time to talk about what’s bringing you to therapy and what you’d like to get out of it. There’s no pressure to go deep right away - we go at your pace.
Therapy offers space to explore what’s behind the low mood, and to build tools that help with motivation, self-worth, and emotional balance.
Different approaches help different people. I draw on methods like talk therapy, CBT, and mindfulness — depending on what feels right for you.
That’s very common. You don’t need to have the answers - part of therapy is gently exploring what you’re feeling and why.
It varies. Some people feel small shifts after a few sessions, others need longer. We’ll move at your pace and check in regularly on how things are going.
Let's talk
You don’t have to go through this on your own. Therapy can help you make sense of how you’re feeling - and begin to find lightness, purpose, and relief.
I’m here to support you. Let’s start with a free 15-minute chat — no pressure, just a space to talk.
