Award-Winning Online Depression Therapy Across Australia
Find Light, Connection, and Hope Through Compassionate Support
Depression can feel like the world has dimmed - draining energy, clarity, and motivation. It can make everyday life heavy and turn even small tasks into mountains .At Lived Experience Solutions (LEXs), I offer award-winning online depression therapy to help you reconnect with yourself, rebuild confidence, and rediscover meaning - one step, one conversation at a time.
Whether you’re living with persistent sadness, emotional numbness, or exhaustion, you don’t have to navigate this alone. Support is available, wherever you are in Australia.
How Online Depression Therapy Helps
Through gentle, evidence-informed sessions, we’ll work together to:
Understand and explore the roots of depression
Rebuild emotional safety, resilience, and motivation
Develop practical coping tools that fit your daily life
Reconnect with meaning, purpose, and self-worth
Restore confidence and hope for the future
I also support NDIS participants (self-managed and plan-managed) seeking trauma-informed, culturally responsive mental-health support tailored to their goals.
With no waitlists, flexible scheduling, and secure online access, therapy at LEXs adapts to you - not the other way around.
What Online Depression Therapy Can Support
You may benefit from online depression therapy if you’re navigating:
Persistent sadness, emptiness, or emotional numbness
Feelings of guilt, shame, or self-blame
Loss of motivation or pleasure in everyday life
Fatigue, sleep issues, or appetite changes
Difficulty focusing or making decisions
Depression related to trauma, grief, or chronic stress
Emotional burnout or low self-esteem
You are not broken - therapy is not about “fixing” you. It’s about rebuilding safety, self-compassion, and connection to the life you want to live.

Michael Elwan

I’m Michael Elwan, an Accredited Social Worker (AASW), PhD Candidate in Mental Health, and the founder of Lived Experience Solutions (LEXs).
My award-winning practice is shaped by both lived and professional experience. In 2025, I received the WA Mental Health Award for Lived Experience Impact & Inspiration and was recognised as a Finalist for the AASW National Social Worker of the Year. These honours reflect my commitment to making support for depression and emotional wellbeing more human, accessible, and culturally responsive.
My work is grounded in personal experience of grief, caregiving, migration, and recovery, and strengthened by more than 15 years in mental health, trauma, and community services. I bring this depth of understanding into every session - creating a space where people can find warmth, safety, and genuine connection as they rediscover purpose and hope.
At LEXs, my approach to therapy is trauma-informed, compassionate, and culturally attuned. Whether you’re feeling lost, disconnected, or ready to rebuild, our work together centres on your strengths, values, and capacity for renewal.
Healing begins when you are met with understanding. That’s the heart of my work - and the reason LEXs exists.
