Clinical depression is a medical condition that goes beyond every day sadness. It can cause profound, long-lasting symptoms that do not go away with typical mood boosting activities. Depression can make it difficult for you to work, study, find satisfaction or perform every day tasks.
A person’s vulnerability to developing depression is related to many factors, including coping styles, genetics, changes in brain function, life stresses and circumstances. In the United States, nearly 20% of the population have a bout of clinical depression in their lifetime.
We are here to help you through the struggles of depression, no matter how acute or chronic your symptoms are. We also understand there may be a stigma in your mind about what it means to get help – we stand by the principal that every person needs help at some point in their lives. We understand it is a great act of strength to reach out for help, and we commit to always honor that.
Ketamine has been shown to be an effective approach for the treatment of depression, especially when other types of treatment have not been helpful. Ketamine allows your mind to take a step back from depression and discover healing within yourself. We have seen this medication, especially in combination with psychotherapy, help people completely transform their own lives for the better. Ketamine is unique in psychopharmacology as it can have an immediate effect after your first treatment, so it is especially helpful for those in a dark or troublesome place.
Have you consistently felt down, depressed or hopeless? Have you experienced a loss of pleasure in doing things that normally interest you? Have you started to withdraw from friends, hobbies or social gatherings? Do you feel numb, or feel like you have no “feelings”? If so, let’s schedule a consultation to talk about what has been going on.
It is likely it will help! In clinical studies, Ketamine has been shown to show drastic improvement in most cases if dosed appropriately and with the right therapeutic support. Each of our providers has specific ketamine-assisted psychotherapy training and we feel very strongly about providing therapeutic support throughout your experience with ketamine. We have an individualized approach for Ketamine treatments and we would love to talk to you about what would work for you.
Every person and every circumstance is different. We definitely believe healing and remission is within every person’s grasp, but the road to get there may not be direct. We are here for you for every bump and barrier.
