Empowering Your Mental Health

Depression can make everyday life feel heavy, exhausting, or overwhelming. If you’re struggling with low mood, loss of motivation, or a sense of disconnection, you’re not alone. Carolan Psychology provides confidential, Australia‑wide telehealth therapy to help you understand your symptoms, regain clarity, and rebuild a sense of hope and direction.

Our approach is grounded in evidence‑based treatment, practical strategies, and a warm, collaborative therapeutic relationship.

What Is Depression?

Depression is more than sadness. It affects how you think, feel, and function day‑to‑day. Common symptoms include:

• Persistent low mood or emptiness
• Loss of interest or pleasure
• Fatigue or sleep changes
• Difficulty concentrating
• Irritability or emotional numbness
• Withdrawal from relationships
• Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or hopelessness

Depression is common and highly treatable. With the right support, people can recover, reconnect, and rebuild meaningful lives.
