DEPRESSION COUNSELLING
Get Genuine Support and Real Solutions for Positive Change
Better Health and a Brighter Outlook with Effective Depression Counselling
Has depression taken away your zest for life? When it diminishes your drive, saps your energy, obscures optimism, fills you with sadness, steals your sleep, and decreases the desire to socialise, then effective depression counselling could be your start to reclaiming control of your health and wellbeing.
You're not alone. Feel Supported. Discover Solutions.
Rarely is life quite as perfect as we may wish it to be. We may not share the same struggles, but everyone faces challenges. Discouragement, disappointments, setbacks, and broken dreams are part of life. These are just some of the events that may be linked to depression.
For anyone living with depression, and depending on the cause and level of severity, wellbeing may be sorely shaken, relationships affected, and just managing everyday tasks can be a hard slog.
It doesn’t matter where you’re from, or what you do or don’t do, depression doesn’t discriminate. Even the most resilient among us, can at times be overwhelmed.
But it is never too late to make a change and improve health and wellbeing. The good thing is, help is available, so it is not a road on which you need to travel alone. Feeling supported and discovering solutions for handling depression with the guidance of a professional counsellor, can be difference-making.
A counsellor provides skills, special insights, strategies, and new perspectives to support clients in tackling depression. Reaching out for professional support is often a turning point — a path towards a healthier, happier and brighter outlook.
If depression is impacting your life and you’re wanting positive change, then Rohan Watson Counselling & Coaching is here for you. Reach out to learn more or make an appointment.

7 Ways to Get the Best Help from Counselling
- Timing is Everything! Get help early.
- Cooperate. Be responsive and cooperative with your therapist and you’ll find the experience a more satisfying, supportive, and collaborative approach in meeting and fulfilling your goals.
- Engage: Actively participate and seek to understand. Ultimately, your counsellor is providing resources to help you reach your own decisions about what is important to you in pursuing your wellbeing goals.
- Openness. Be open-minded with a willingness to learn. Embrace counselling, don’t begrudge it. For change to happen, it first requires a deeper understanding of what it is that needs to change.
- Honesty. Be transparent and truthful with your counsellor. Own your attitudes and actions.
- Find Positives. Acknowledge the positives. Seek to find a silver-lining even when life isn’t easy.
- Continue as long as it takes. Resolutions may come quickly, but sometimes therapy may take longer. Your self-care is paramount and is a foundation for health, wellbeing, and a brighter future.
