Anxiety and Depression

What It Is

Our Anxiety & Depression counselling is designed for individuals struggling with overwhelming worry, sadness, or hopelessness- conditions that past traumas can often intensify. Whether you’re facing persistent anxiety that keeps you on edge or depression that drains your energy, we’re here to help you navigate these challenges.

Trauma-Informed Approach

We recognise that anxiety and depression can stem from or be worsened by traumatic experiences. Our approach is gentle and respectful, ensuring we never push you to confront painful memories before you’re ready. Instead, we:

  • Create a safe, non-judgmental space to express your feelings at your own pace.

  • Use grounding techniques (like deep breathing or sensory exercises) to help you stay present when emotions feel overwhelming.

  • Focus on your strengths, building on what’s already working for you rather than dwelling solely on the struggles.

Client Experience

When you step into our sessions, you’ll feel heard and validated. We’ll listen to your story without rushing you, tailoring every step to your comfort level. You’ll learn practical coping strategies—like mindfulness or journaling—that honour your unique experiences. Over time, we’ll help you identify triggers, manage intense emotions, and regain a sense of calm and control.

Outcomes

Through this process, you’ll:

  • Build resilience to face daily challenges with greater ease.

  • Develop tools to manage symptoms, reducing the grip of anxiety and depression.

Feel empowered to take charge of your mental health, moving toward a more balanced life.
