Depression Treatment in Darwin
Warm, evidence-based support for depression
Depression treatment in Darwin is offered through individual counselling sessions designed to support people experiencing low mood, fatigue, loss of motivation, or feelings of hopelessness.
Depression can involve persistent low mood, exhaustion, loss of motivation, or feeling disconnected from yourself and others. With the right support, many people regain hope, energy, and a sense of meaning.
If depression is starting to affect your work, relationships, or daily functioning, therapy can help.
- Are you feeling persistently low, flat, or emotionally exhausted?
- Are you struggling with guilt, hopelessness, or loss of motivation?
- Has depression begun to affect your work, relationships, or ability to enjoy life?
Depression is treatable, and support can make a meaningful difference.
What is Depression?
Most people experience low mood from time to time. Depression involves more than feeling sad or unmotivated for a few days.
Depression may be present when feelings such as sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness persist and begin to interfere with everyday life. Activities that once felt meaningful may lose their appeal, and even simple tasks can feel overwhelming.
When depression continues without support, it can become harder to cope alone. Seeking help can be an important step toward recovery.
Common symptoms of depression
- Persistent low mood, sadness, or feeling “flat”
- Loss of interest or pleasure
- Changes in sleep (difficulty sleeping or sleeping more than usual)
- Changes in appetite
- Reduced concentration or difficulty making decisions
- Feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt
- Tearfulness, irritability, or feeling easily overwhelmed
- Hopelessness about the future
- Excessive worry (sometimes alongside low mood)
If you recognise some of these symptoms, it may be helpful to reach out for support. Depression is treatable, and early intervention can make a meaningful difference.
Depression treatment in Darwin
It’s not always easy to acknowledge that depression has become difficult to manage on your own. Many people try to push through, minimise it, or hope it will pass.
Evidence-based therapy focuses on understanding what’s contributing to low mood and developing practical strategies to support recovery over time.
As an experienced clinical psychologist, I offer evidence-based treatment tailored to your needs. Since 2010, I’ve supported people from diverse backgrounds using approaches that may include cognitive and mindfulness-based therapies. Therapy is collaborative and paced to feel manageable and supportive.
How I can help
Therapy for depression isn’t about forcing positivity — it’s about understanding what’s keeping you stuck and building steady, practical steps forward. Many people find therapy helps with motivation, self-criticism, mood stability, and reconnecting with what matters.
Appointments are available in person in Darwin during scheduled clinics. Telehealth may also be available where appropriate.
