Problems Our Depression Psychologist Addresses

Our fully registered psychologists and mental health social worker have a variety of skills to help you deal with grief, trauma, workplace and relationship issues, parenting, sexual addictions, and adjusting to change.

● Living does not go well for us all the time, and it’s essential to realise that we need some support when we feel overwhelmed − and to be willing to ask for it. Our male and female staff members focus on psychological therapy for depression and other life issues in Melbourne’s Bayside areas of Chelsea and St Kilda. We also provide telephone, video, and zoom psychological therapy.

Our therapists have a median of 15 to 20 years’ experience in helping clients to solve problems, develop coping mechanisms, and become cheerier. On-going clients are capable of understanding and supporting family and friends that grapple with similar concerns.

You learn self-management approaches and feel less alone, misunderstood, and doubtful. Therapy helps you to heal, overcome self-judgement, and start relating to others again as you become better able to cope.

The insights and awareness we gain through working on ourselves eventually assist us in creating stronger bonds with family and friends and regaining a sense of hope and joy.

Related Services We Provide to Postpartum Depression Psychologist

Postpartum depression is a serious clinical depression associated with being pregnant and giving birth. You need to find a way to feel like you again, and begin to delight in your little one. Counselling may form part of your release.

● Studies have found that factors that influence postpartum depression are: being the sole homemaker, a history of depression, and hyperemesis gravidarum, which is a severe form of morning sickness that produces intensive nausea and vomiting.

● Studies couldn’t find a substantial difference regarding age, education, income level, the number of times the mother has been pregnant, and whether she gave birth vaginally or via elective or emergency Caesarean section.

● Sadness, mood swings, feeling overwhelmed, anxiety, the inability to remember or concentrate, disruption of your sleep cycle, loss of libido, and social withdrawal do not only occur after giving birth, but these are some of the symptoms of postpartum depression. Whether you suffer from any of these problems as a result of being a new mother or not, therapy may assist you in dealing with them and move you towards coping with life again.
