Depression Counselling Byron Shire

Depression Counselling Byron Shire, NSW, Australia

Depression isn’t simply feeling blue or down in the dumps. It is a real medical condition that can have a profound effect on every area of your life. Unlike fleeting moments of sadness, depression can linger and permeate your thoughts, emotions, and physical well-being, impacting your ability to function in daily life. It’s not just a case of “snapping out of it”; depression can be overwhelming and requires professional support to manage and overcome.

Depression comes in all shapes and sizes and expresses itself in different ways for each person. For some, it may manifest as a persistent low mood, while others might experience irritability, fatigue, or a lack of interest in activities they once enjoyed. It can develop gradually or come on very suddenly and be mild, moderate, or severe. Some people may struggle to get out of bed, while others might feel numb or detached from the world around them. The complexity of depression means that each person’s experience is unique, and what works for one individual may not work for another.

If you’re struggling with depression, Anne Evans can help. As a qualified counsellor with many years of experience, Anne has helped countless people overcome depression and go on to lead happy, fulfilling lives. Her approach is compassionate and tailored to each individual’s needs, offering a safe space to explore your feelings and develop strategies for coping. Whether your depression is mild, moderate, or severe, Anne’s expertise can guide you toward a path of recovery and well-being. With her support, you can begin to reclaim your life, find joy in everyday moments, and build resilience for the future.

  I've been seeing Anne Serrey for anger management and for TRTP as part of my court ordered diversion since April. I can comfortably say that slapping the guy that brought me to these counselling sessions was the best thing I've ever done. Absolutely life changing. I feel much lighter, I feel free, and unstuck for the first time since exiting my mother's uterus thirty odd years ago.

Thanks so much Anne for all your help and your continued support.

Highly recommend Anne's services.

  Anne is amazing, TRTP has changed my entire outlook on life, how I interact with people, and what I’m doing. In the few months since TRTP my life has honestly changed so much for the better, it’s beyond what I could have ever imagined. My friends and family are also noticing it! And amazingly, every day gets better. Thank you so much Anne!

  TRTP has completely changed the way I think about myself and the world around me.
The changes have been extraordinary in such a short space of time. I suddenly find myself walking forward with a new set of positive core beliefs which others are noticing on a daily basis
Anne supported me through the process with expertise, compassion and patience.
TRTP really does offer you a new launch pad from which to embark on a new journey.
I’m so grateful for having this opportunity to do this work with Anne

  I had been struggling with life and reliving my trauma for over 20 years, I tried everything and nothing worked. Finally I was referred to Anne, who took me through The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP) as that is the process that helped shift the past and get you to a better place.  Words cannot express how she turned my life completely around. For once, I am actually excited about life, I am actually thinking about my future. I feel like my life has been reset, I have a second chance and I am developing my life the way I want it to be, rather than the influences I was brought up with. Anne, I am indebted to you, thank you so much.

  Completing The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP) with Anne has helped me profoundly. I feel free and less anxious around matters that used to overwhelm me, and my day-to-day experience is calmer and much less reactive. I can't thank Anne enough for this life-enhancing process!

What is Depression, How Does It Affect Me?

Depression is a mental health condition that causes a range of emotional symptoms, including feelings of sadness, hopelessness, anxiety and low self-worth. It can also cause physical symptoms such as fatigue, poor sleep and loss of appetite.

Depression affects people in different ways and can vary from mild to severe. Some people may only experience mild symptoms that come and go, while others may have more persistent and severe symptoms that have a major impact on their day-to-day lives.

There is no single cause of depression. It can be triggered by a combination of factors, including stressful life events (such as relationship problems or job loss), biochemical changes in the brain, and family history.

Treatment for depression usually involves a combination of medication and talking therapies. With the right treatment, most people with depression will start to feel better within a few weeks.

How Depression Counselling Can Help

Depression counselling can be an effective treatment for depression. It can help you to understand and come to terms with your condition, and give you the tools to manage your symptoms and improve your wellbeing.

Depression counselling can help you in several ways, including:

Identifying and changing negative thinking patterns: The root cause of many cases of depression is negative thinking. If you’re stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts, counselling can help you to identify and challenge these thoughts and develop more positive ways of thinking.
Improving communication skills: Depression can make it hard to communicate effectively with others. Counselling can help you to improve your communication skills and make it easier to express your needs and feelings.
Developing coping strategies: Counselling can help you to develop healthy coping strategies for dealing with difficult situations and emotions. This can include relaxation techniques, problem-solving skills and assertiveness training.
Improving self-esteem: Depression can cause negative thinking about yourself, leading to low self-esteem. Counselling can help you to challenge these negative thoughts and develop a more positive view of yourself.
