Depression Treatment
Depression is a complex and pervasive mental health condition that can significantly affect one’s quality of life. At Mindful Meds Psychiatry and Wellness, we specialize in diagnosing and treating various forms of depression with a holistic, patient-centered approach. We aim to empower our clients to regain control over their lives, fostering both mental and emotional well-being through evidence-based treatments.
TreatmentMajor Depressive Disorder (MDD), also known simply as clinical depression, is characterized by prolonged periods of low mood, lack of interest in daily activities, and a range of physical and emotional symptoms. Individuals with MDD may experience feelings of worthlessness, fatigue, changes in appetite, and difficulty concentrating. These symptoms persist for at least two weeks and can significantly interfere with day-to-day functioning.
We conduct a thorough assessment to understand the unique factors contributing to each individual’s experience of depression.
Antidepressants may be prescribed to help balance brain chemicals and alleviate symptoms. Our psychiatrists work closely with you to monitor the effectiveness of the medication and make adjustments as necessary.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other therapeutic approaches are used to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and foster emotional resilience.
We believe in addressing the whole person. Nutritional guidance, physical activity recommendations, and stress management techniques are incorporated into treatment plans to promote long-term recovery.
Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD), commonly known as dysthymia, is a chronic form of depression where individuals experience milder symptoms over a prolonged period—often two years or more. While the symptoms may not be as severe as those seen in MDD, they can be just as disabling, impacting daily life and overall happiness.
Ongoing therapy is crucial for managing dysthymia. Our therapists provide continuous support to help you navigate the challenges of living with a chronic condition.
Because PDD often coexists with other conditions like anxiety or substance use disorders, we create individualized treatment plans that address all aspects of your mental health.
For patients who struggle to find effective medication, we offer genetic testing to determine how your body processes certain medications, helping to optimize treatment.
The signs and symptoms of depression can vary widely from person to person, but they generally include a combination of emotional, physical, and cognitive changes that persist for at least two weeks or more. Common signs and symptoms of depression include:
