Therapy for depression and low mood.

Depression is more than sadness or a difficult day. It’s the flat heaviness that makes everything take more effort, the loss of interest in things that used to matter, the brain fog, and the inner critic that won’t quiet down. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and may develop gradually or after stressful life events — and depression is a treatable condition.

We work with depression using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), behavioural activation, mindfulness-based approaches, ACT, and where helpful, schema-informed therapy. The aim is twofold — relief from the worst of it, and a clearer view of what you actually want to be doing with your life.

Types of depression we support

  • Major Depressive Disorder
  • Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)
  • Adjustment disorder with depressed mood
  • Perinatal and postnatal depression
  • Depression associated with chronic health conditions
  • Depression related to grief and loss
  • Depression occurring alongside anxiety, trauma, or other mental health conditions

What to expect

  • A careful first session to understand what’s been happening and for how long
  • A practical plan that includes both how you think and what you do
  • Small, doable steps — not advice to “just stay positive”
  • Regular check-ins on what’s working

When to seek support

It may help to speak with a psychologist if low mood has lasted more than a few weeks, is affecting work, study, or relationships, is reducing motivation or enjoyment, is impacting sleep, appetite, or concentration, or is leaving you feeling hopeless or overwhelmed. If you’ve been prescribed medication, we can work alongside your GP or psychiatrist.

Frequently Asked Questions

If your question is not answered here please call or message our office.

No. You can book an appointment without a referral. However, if you would like to claim a Medicare rebate, you will need a valid Mental Health Care Plan and referral from your GP.
Your first appointment is an opportunity to discuss what has brought you to therapy, your current concerns and your goals. Together, you and your psychologist will develop a treatment plan that best supports your individual needs.
Standard psychology appointments are approximately 50 minutes.
The number of sessions varies from person to person and depends on your individual needs and goals. Some people benefit from a small number of sessions focused on a specific concern, while others find ongoing therapy helpful. Your progress and treatment goals will be reviewed regularly with your psychologist.
Yes. Research has shown that Telehealth can be as effective as face-to-face therapy for many mental health concerns.

You will need a mobile phone, tablet or computer with a camera and microphone, along with a reliable internet connection.
If you have a valid Mental Health Care Plan and referral from your GP, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate. The full consultation fee is payable on the day of your appointment.

Our psychologists support children, adolescents and adults experiencing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, burnout, life transitions and challenges with emotional wellbeing. Each psychologist has different areas of interest, training and experience, and not every clinician works with every age group or concern. We encourage you to review our psychologist profiles to find a clinician whose experience and approach best suits your or your child's needs.
Our psychologists use a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, depending on their training and the needs of each client. These may include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches and other evidence-based interventions. Your psychologist will work collaboratively with you to develop an individualised treatment plan that aligns with your goals and preferences.
Please provide at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice, or appointments not attended without notice, will incur a $100 cancellation fee.
No. Psychologists do not prescribe medication. If medication may be beneficial, your psychologist may recommend discussing this with your GP or, where appropriate, a psychiatrist.
