Depressive Disorders

We address depression through compassionate therapy, coping strategies, and effective medication management.

Depressive disorders can affect mood, behavior, and overall functioning. We focus on holistic treatment:

  • Diagnostic Assessment: Thorough evaluations to identify the type and severity of depression (e.g., major depressive disorder, dysthymia).
  • Psychotherapy:
    • CBT to address negative thought patterns.
    • Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) to resolve interpersonal issues contributing to depression.
  • Medication Therapy: Prescribing antidepressants based on individual needs, with close monitoring of efficacy and side effects.
  • Lifestyle Interventions: Incorporating exercise, diet, and mindfulness practices to enhance recovery.
