Depression has a way of making everything feel harder than it should be. If you're a Werrington adult who's been feeling flat, disconnected, or like you're just surviving rather than living, you're not imagining it. And you're not weak for struggling. Depression is real, it's common, and it responds to the right support.
Waking up tired no matter how much sleep you get
Losing motivation for work, hobbies, or spending time with people
Feeling numb or empty rather than sad
Withdrawing from your partner, friends, or family without meaning to
Struggling to make even small decisions or complete basic tasks
Harsh self-talk telling you that you're failing or not enough

Questions Werrington adults ask about depression treatment.
If you've been experiencing persistent low mood, loss of interest, fatigue, or changes in sleep and appetite for more than two weeks, it may be depression. You don't need to be certain before reaching out. A psychologist can help you figure out what's going on and whether treatment would help.
We use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Behavioural Activation, both of which have strong research support for treating depression. Your psychologist will tailor the approach to your specific needs and preferences.
Absolutely. Research shows that combining therapy with medication often produces better outcomes than either one alone. Your psychologist can work alongside your GP or psychiatrist to ensure a coordinated approach to your care.
Very normal, and very common. Depression often tells you that you should cope alone or that seeking help is a sign of weakness. In reality, reaching out is one of the strongest things you can do. Our psychologists hear this from clients regularly, and no one has ever regretted making that first appointment.
Many people begin to notice improvements within six to ten sessions, though this varies depending on the severity and duration of the depression. Your psychologist will regularly review your progress and adjust the plan as needed.
