Depression Therapy and Counselling

Depression can make everyday life feel heavy and difficult. If you are looking for depression therapy, speaking with a professional counsellor can help you explore what you are experiencing and begin moving toward recovery.

Kevin Scott Counselling offers empathetic counselling for people with depression in Melbourne, with a safe environment for people to talk about their feelings and experiences.

People who get depression may be sad, angry or they go numb to various emotional feelings which is different for each person. Some people are perpetually sad or lack motivation, while others feel uninspired, disconnected from others in their own life and emotionally empty of interest. Letting depression linger and not getting depression counselling can be dangerous.

Key Dangers of Depression

Depression is a dangerous, potentially fatal, and debilitating illness, not just a passing mood. It can lead to suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and severe physical health consequences like cardiovascular disease and stroke. Untreated depression often causes major social, work, and family impairment

Suicide and Self-Harm: Severe depression carries a high risk of suicidal thoughts, attempts, and suicide.

Physical Health Complications: It can lead to chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and obesity.

Reduced Life Expectancy: It is linked to premature death from medical conditions.

Debilitating Mental/Physical Symptoms: It often causes extreme fatigue, pain, and, in some cases, severe shaking.

Functional Impairment: Depression causes severe, long-term disruption to daily life, including work, school, and relationships.

Dealing with depression and discussing these feelings will enable you to understand more about your feelings and what may be influencing them.

Kevin’s counselling styles are working together with patients and understanding each other under the guidance of a therapeutic process. Depression therapy provides room to explore emotions, relationships and life experiences that may be contributing to current feelings, instead of providing immediate solutions.

For clients, being recognised, respected and understood can be quite comforting. Gestalt therapy for depression focuses on the here and now and allows people to process their experiences without judgments. In doing so, they often learn new things about themselves and their thoughts and feelings and how they interact with others.
