Depression Counselling

Depression Counselling Northern Rivers, NSW

We all go through tough times in our lives. But sometimes, the sadness and anxiety can be so overwhelming that it feels impossible to cope. If you’re struggling to keep up with your day-to-day life, it might be time to seek professional help.

Depression can be treated with a number of different therapies, depending on the severity of the condition. If you’re dealing with mild to moderate depression, counselling may be an effective option.

Depression is more than just feeling down in the dumps. It’s a serious mental health condition that affects your ability to function in your everyday life. When you’re depressed, you may feel hopeless, worthless, and helpless. You might lose interest in activities you used to enjoy, have trouble sleeping or eating, and even think about harming yourself.

Depression can be caused by anything, from a major life event to a chemical imbalance in the brain. It can be temporary, or it can last for years. No matter the cause, though, there are ways to treat it.

Anne was so great. She is extremely comfortable and very knowledgeable. Anne was able to help me overcome some old habits and was able to help me come to terms with my past. I would recommend her to anyone.

I went to Anne with multiple Traumas . I was not Hopfull that it can help however my partner booked me in to see Anne .. Anne was very professional and wise. She tried alot to stop me from self sabotaging .. I am still dealing with anxiety day in day out however I feel more aware of my problems and also less aggressive and sensitive to some triggers.. not all my problems are solved as it was just four sessions with Anne! we could just work with couple of the issues... however it did help and I see a change .. I recommend TRTP specially for those battling with PTSD !

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 Counselling And How Does It Work?

Depression counselling can be an effective way to get to the root of your problem and find healthy coping mechanisms. It usually involves meeting with a therapist on a regular basis to discuss your symptoms and how they’re affecting your life.

Through counselling, you’ll learn different techniques for managing your depression. You might also explore the root cause of your condition and work on resolving any underlying issues. In some cases, medication may be prescribed in addition to counselling.

What Are The Benefits Of Depression Counselling?

Depression counselling can provide a number of benefits, including:

  • Increased ability to cope with stress: Stress is a major trigger for depression. It can be caused by work, family, or personal problems. By learning how to better manage your stress levels, you can help prevent future episodes.
  • Improved communication skills: Counselling can help you learn how to communicate your needs and feelings more effectively. This can be helpful in both your personal and professional relationships. Communicating your needs can also help reduce stress.
  • Greater self-awareness: Depression can cloud your judgement and make it difficult to see yourself objectively. Counselling can help you understand your thoughts and behaviours and why they may be causing problems in your life.
  • Increased self-esteem: As you work through your issues in counselling, you may find that your self-esteem begins to improve. This can help you feel better about yourself and increase your overall quality of life.
  • Better coping skills: Counselling can teach you new ways to cope with the symptoms of depression. These skills can help you get through tough times, even when you’re not in therapy.
