Depression is About Loss, Failure, Hopelessness and Helplessness
At other times individuals are not clear what they have lost, or how they have failed, because it
is all symbolic. This takes some unravelling, but I can normally help people to identify the triggers that initiated
their depression, and also the remedies that will lift the black cloud. Those remedies have to do with how they see
some aspect of their life; how they 'frame it'; how they think and talk about it. By changing the way it is experienced,
they can release the hold of depression and move up into much milder sadness and regret, and then on up into calm serenity. I can help you to retrieve your old vitality, and to
remain active and interested in life. You don't even have to take time out to come and see me at my office;
and we never even have to meet. We can work together over the telephone, and I can send you follow-up reading material, and you can email me with progress reports. On the other hand, if you want to meet face to face, I can set up an appointment to meet in Hebden Bridge or Halifax. Or in London, Leeds or Manchester; Or in Edinburgh, York or Wilmslow. In a short time you could have your depression under control, if you respond well to my coaching and counselling.

Depression is a painful, discouraging and draining condition. Life looks bleak and dull, and bad feelings seem to fill
our bodies as well as our minds. Sometimes individuals become depressed because they get stuck in the grieving process.
That is to say, they lose something or someone significant to them, and thus they need to engage in appropriate sadness.
But they push the sadness away, and get stuck with long term depression instead of short term sadness. The trick with
grief is to feel the sense of loss keenly, and thus to complete it.
