Our Depression Treatment Approach
We offer comprehensive, personalized depression treatment combining multiple evidence-based approaches:
Medication Management
Our psychiatrists prescribe and monitor antidepressant medications (SSRIs, SNRIs, atypical antidepressants) tailored to your symptoms and medical history. We carefully adjust dosages to maximize benefits while minimizing side effects.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to depression. It's one of the most effective therapies for depression.
