Depression Counselling & Psychotherapy at Harley Therapy™ London
Depression affects one in six of us. Common symptoms include lack of motivation, difficulties in concentration, pessimism, sleep disturbances, irritability, crying, suicidal thoughts, social withdrawal, changes in appetite, loss of sex drive and lack of enthusiasm/pleasure. Depression often has knock-on effects in personal and professional relationships.
What is Depression Counselling & Psychotherapy?
Depression Counselling Treatment will be tailored to your individual symptoms. Typically, Counsellors help you explore the root causes of depression and low mood. They may also incorporate cognitive behavioural therapy techniques which focus on lifting the maintaining cycles of depression and low mood.
If you wish to combine counselling/therapy with an anti-depressant, we can refer you to our Private Consultant Psychiatrist.
