What it can feel like.
Everyone feels low sometimes, but depression is more than sadness. It can affect mood, energy, sleep, concentration and relationships, and make simple tasks feel overwhelming. When low mood hangs around or starts to get in the way of daily life, it may be time to talk to someone.
- Persistent sadness, emptiness or irritability
- Low energy, fatigue or changes in sleep
- Losing interest in things you used to enjoy
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Feelings of worthlessness or guilt
- Withdrawing from friends, family or work
Depression doesn’t mean someone is lazy or lacking willpower. It needs care, not judgement.
How we approach depression
Our psychologists use approaches grounded in evidence, shaped around you and your life.
- 1
Understanding your experience
Your psychologist starts with what’s going on for you, including your mood, energy, sleep and what daily life looks like right now. You’ll talk about what brought you here and what you’d like to change.
- 2
Choosing an approach together
Your psychologist explains the options and why they might suit you, then you agree on a plan together.
- 3
Reviewing the plan together
Along the way, your psychologist checks progress with you, using measures chosen for you and what you’re working on, and adjusts the plan if needed.
What support can include
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and works towards more balanced ones.
- Behavioural activation Gradually returning to activities that bring enjoyment, purpose and connection.
- Emotion regulation skills Practical strategies for low mood and stress.
- Problem-solving therapy A step-by-step way to work through challenges that feel overwhelming.
- Strengths-based identity work Reconnects you with your values, abilities and sense of self.
- Family or relationship support Involving people close to you, where that fits.

Depth behind the person you see
You see one psychologist. Behind them is a practice that invests in what they know: training through the year, supervision built in, and time set aside to keep up with the research.
Trained for the work in front of them
Our psychologists train through the year, and we train together when we take on a new approach.
Enough of us to match you properly
With 25+ psychologists, we can put you with someone who works with what you’re facing, your age group, and the way you like to work.
Keeping up, on purpose
New research, new frameworks and new tools get tested against what we already do. What earns its place stays.
If something isn’t working.
Tell us, or tell your psychologist. Here’s what can happen next.
Ask for a different psychologist
We aim to get it right first time. If not, tell us and we’ll match you with someone else. No reason needed, and you won’t have to start over.
Talk it through with your psychologist
Your psychologist reviews the plan with you, and can talk your care through in supervision. All our psychologists work with regular supervision and shared clinical standards.
Wondering about medication?
If medication might be worth considering, we can write to your GP with what we’ve found, with your consent.

How does Unbound Minds support adults experiencing depression?
We provide a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly about how you are feeling. Our psychologists use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based approaches to help you manage low mood, build coping strategies and reconnect with the things that matter to you.
Do you just focus on mood symptoms, or do you look at the bigger picture?
Both. We address immediate challenges such as low mood, fatigue, and lack of motivation, while also exploring the underlying stressors, thought patterns, and life circumstances that can contribute to depression.
How do I know if what I am experiencing is depression or just a tough period?
Everyone feels sad or flat at times. Depression may be present when those feelings are persistent, intense, and interfere with daily life, such as affecting work, relationships, or sleep. If low mood continues for weeks or months, professional support may be helpful.
What can I expect in therapy for depression?
Therapy is collaborative and tailored to you. Together you’ll explore your experiences, set goals that matter to you and work on practical strategies step by step, with tools you can use in everyday situations.
What if I’ve lived with depression for many years?
You can start therapy at any point. Your psychologist will look at what has kept depression going and work with you on new ways of understanding and responding to it, however long you’ve lived with it.
Start with a phone call.
We’ll listen, ask a few questions and match you with a psychologist who fits.
