Our clinical team’s extensive experience and broad expertise enables us to provide the most effective available treatment for depression. We utilize the most current research and healing practices for the most successful outcomes.
We also recognize that depression is not experienced in the same way by everyone – there is a broad spectrum of depressive symptoms, which is why we create highly personalized treatment plans and procedures to address each individual’s specific needs.
Utilizing multiple treatment modalities including individual therapy, small group therapy, holistic therapies, and medication management when appropriate, we are able treat each individual’s unique depressive condition.
Through our program, our clients realize significant improvement in symptom reduction and global well-being almost immediately upon participation in our program.
Depression Defined
While depression is among the more common mental health disorders, it is also among the more deadly, due to the hopeless and despair it causes. It interferes with relationships, productivity, sleep, activity, and most every other aspect of the lives of those who suffer from it.
Depression is caused by multiple contributors including genetic, biochemical, environmental, and others, which cause emotional, cognitive, and physical instability.
Depression Symptoms include:
- Persistent feelings of sadness, emptiness, and hopelessness
- Reduction or complete loss of interest in relationships, interests, activities, and so on, which were formally enjoyable
- Significant increase and/or decrease in sleep
- Fatigue, listlessness, and general loss of energ
- Irritability or anger
- Memory problems and general slowness in cognitive function
- Unwarranted feelings of guilt and worthlessness
- Changes in appetite, including both overeating and/or under eating
- Suicidal thoughts
Perhaps the primary paradox of depression is that it creates a total lack of desire to participate in usual, healthy life interactions and activities, which are the very experiences critical to normal happy living. This downward cycle of isolation and suffering increasingly aggravates the symptoms of depression.
