Depression Counselling in London | Holistic Therapy & Support

Holistic and soulful therapy for when life feels heavy, numb, or hopeless

Are You Feeling Stuck or Overwhelmed? Depression Counselling Can Help

Depression can leave you feeling numb, drained, or emotionally exhausted. However, whether you are struggling with low mood, burnout, or a sense of meaninglessness, counselling with me provides a safe, compassionate, non-judgemental space to start the healing process and feel better. I offer holistic, relational, transpersonal therapy – helping you reconnect with your vitality and sense of purpose. Transpersonal means connection, with others, with inner soul, purpose and spirit. I believe you are more than your psyche or problems and wish to assist you to become the person you can and truly want to be.

 

Depression Counselling in London Could Support You With

  • Ongoing sadness, emotional numbness, or apathy
  • Loss of motivation, hope, or clarity
  • Changes in sleep or appetite
  • Isolation or difficulty connecting in relationships
  • Spiritual crisis or a deep sense of emptiness
  • Intrusive, conflicting, or sometimes suicidal thoughts

These symptoms can feel overwhelming, but they are not who you are. I understand how reaching out, taking the first step can be incredibly difficult. It takes bravery and courage to seek support for ourselves. I wish to honour you in your first step towards healing. Simply sharing what’s happening can bring immediate relief, because you can experience feeling seen, heard, and understood without judgment. Actually, depression can be a signal that your soul is calling for attention and transformation.

“We treat depression as if it were a disease to be cured, but sometimes it is a rite of passage — the beginning of a new relationship with our own depths.”
— Thomas Moore

My Gentle, Personal Approach to Counselling

I offer an integrative, whole-person therapeutic approach that includes:

  • Humanistic therapy – grounded in empathy, authenticity, and deep listening
  • Spiritual and transpersonal insight – informed by contemplative traditions including Buddhism
  • Somatic awareness – exploring gently what the body holds
  • Psychosynthesis and parts work – creating meaning and reconnecting with your inner Self
  • Viewing depression as a call to growth – seeing it not as failure, but as inner strength prompting change

This approach helps us explore what your depression may be communicating—beyond symptom relief—toward genuine personal transformation.

“When the soul is neglected, it doesn’t just go away; it appears in obsessions, addictions, violence, and loss of meaning. Depression is often the soul’s cry for attention.”
— Thomas Moore
