Overcoming depression and low mood in older adults

If you're experiencing depression, you're not alone. Professional support can help you work through what you're feeling.

Support for Depression

Counselling provides a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts and feelings. There's no pressure to have all the answers—your counsellor will work at your pace. Below you'll find counsellors who specialise in this area. Each brings their own approach and experience, giving you options to find someone you connect with.
