About Dr. Esther Cole
I am HCPC registered, BPS accredited and a professionally insured Clinical Psychologist working in the NHS and private practice. I have worked in multi-disciplinary teams with clients with a range of mental and physical health, neurological conditions, challenging behaviour and cognitive problems, with very positive results since 2008 (qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist in 2013).
I tailor make all therapies to the person, child, young person or organisation’s needs and draw on the best available evidence. This could mean offering a combination of different therapies such as CBT, systemic and narrative approaches or integrating several therapeutic methods until we feel we are making progress.

Psychotherapy for Depression | Lifespan Psychology UK
Psychotherapy for Depression at Lifespan Psychology
Living with depression can feel isolating, exhausting, and overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be something you face alone. At Lifespan Psychology, we provide professional, compassionate psychotherapy for depression to help you understand what you’re going through, regain a sense of hope, and take meaningful steps toward recovery.
Depression affects everyone differently. You might feel persistently low, struggle to find motivation, or feel disconnected from yourself or others. You may not always have a clear reason for feeling this way — and that’s okay. Depression is a medical condition, not a weakness, and it responds well to the right treatment and support.
What Is Depression?
Depression is more than just feeling sad. It can impact your thoughts, mood, energy levels, and ability to carry out daily activities. Symptoms can include:
-
Persistent feelings of sadness or emptiness
-
Loss of interest in hobbies or relationships
-
Changes in sleep or appetite
-
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
-
Feelings of worthlessness or guilt
-
Thoughts of self-harm or hopelessness
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you care about, reaching out for help is a powerful first step.
