I can honestly say I now feel happy the majority of the time and if I don’t, I know how to deal with it. I now realise that you have options, and that it is within your own power to change things around. I am very grateful to Maggie for helping me to ….

Overcoming Depression & Enjoying Better Relationships
When I first started seeing Maggie I felt very unmotivated, lonely and exhausted. It seemed the more I tried to fix things myself, the worse they got. I sought counselling as a last resort, when I simply didn’t know what else to do… our sessions were incredibly motivating. I have gone from tolerating life to loving it, including the bumpy bits. She was very good at explaining why I felt the way I did. She taught me through exercises that…

Anxiety and Depression – Move Forward Positively
I reached out to KlearMinds due to a very intense feeling of anxiety and depression which had been going on for months. I was then working with Jess to help me overcome this, and I cannot speak highly of the care and tools I was given to move forward and positively. The sessions were very opening, as well as homework for me to practice and work on whilst not at a session – which I believe was pivotal in helping me….

Understanding Your Depression

When depression takes hold, it can feel heavy, confusing, and difficult to explain. Understanding what’s happening can be the first step toward feeling better. Depression is more than just feeling sad or low from time to time. While everyone experiences periods of low mood, depression becomes a problem when:

  • It lasts for an extended period of time
  • It interferes with your ability to function day-to-day
  • It affects your relationships, work, or motivation
  • It prevents you from enjoying life or feeling hopeful about the future

Depression can affect both your mind and body. You might feel persistently tired, lose interest in things you once enjoyed, or struggle to concentrate. Some people experience physical symptoms such as sleep problems, changes in appetite, or unexplained aches and pains. These are not signs of weakness — they are signs that you may need support.

When we’re experiencing depression, our thoughts can become critical, negative, or hopeless. These thought patterns can reinforce low mood, making it harder to see a way forward. It can feel like a vicious cycle, where the more you struggle, the deeper you sink. But with the right help, this cycle can be broken.

Symptoms of Depression

Our integrated counselling and CBT for depression can help you find relief, rebuild confidence, and develop practical strategies for coping with the challenges you’re facing. Below are some of the common symptoms people may experience with depression:

  • Low mood
  • Hopelessness
  • Lack of motivation
  • Crying
  • Changes in appetite
  • Loss of sex drive
  • Social withdrawal
  • Pessimism
  • Sleeplessness
  • Lethargy
  • Lack of pleasure
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Irritability
  • Suicidal thoughts

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you become depressed?
There are many reasons why you might feel depressed, and these will differ from person to person. Sometimes the cause is obvious – a particular disappointment or frustration, or the loss of a loved one – but that’s not always the case. Typically, there are several underlying reasons and contributing factors working in combination to result in depression. These may include:

  • Negative life events such as job loss, family problems or divorce
  • Bereavement an how successfully you come to terms with your loss
  • Childhood experiences including trauma and abuse, or lack of preparation for adult life
  • Long term suppressed anger
  • Personal circumstances such as loneliness, stress, physical exhaustion or disability
  • Physical illness including viral infections (e.g. glandular fever), painful or chronic illnesses (e.g. arthritis), hormonal imbalances (e.g. underactive thyroid)
  • Life threatening conditions such as cancer and heart disease
  • Heavy drinking
  • Heavy social media use
