How we treat Depressive Disorders

Depression affects how you think, feel, and function day to day — but it is highly treatable. Our providers create individualized care plans that blend talk therapy, medication management, and, for treatment-resistant cases, ketamine infusion therapy, helping patients regain energy, motivation, and hope.

Frequently Asked Questions

We treat Major Depressive Disorder, Persistent Depressive Disorder (dysthymia), and Mood Dysregulation Disorder. Each of these conditions has a different course and pattern, which affects how we approach treatment. Every patient receives an individualized care plan built around their symptoms, history, and personal goals. We take the time to understand the full picture before recommending any specific course of action.
Common signs include persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed, fatigue, changes in sleep or appetite, and difficulty concentrating. These symptoms can build up slowly, which is part of why depression sometimes goes unnoticed for a while. A professional evaluation can help determine whether what you're experiencing fits a depressive disorder or is being driven by something else entirely, such as a medical condition or major life stressor.
Treatment may include therapy, medication management, and for treatment-resistant cases, ketamine infusion therapy. We look at how you've responded to prior treatments, if any, to help decide the right starting point. Because depression can shift over time, we regularly reassess how the plan is working and make adjustments. The goal is steady, sustainable progress rather than a one-time fix.
Yes, ketamine infusion therapy is available as a fast-acting, evidence-based option for treatment-resistant depression. It's typically considered after standard treatments like therapy and traditional antidepressants haven't provided enough relief. Our team evaluates your full history before recommending this path, including any prior treatment responses and current health considerations, to make sure it's an appropriate fit for you.
Follow-up frequency depends on your treatment plan and how you're responding to it. Many patients start with more frequent visits, especially early on, while medications or therapy techniques are being fine-tuned. As symptoms stabilize, visits often taper to a less frequent schedule. Consistent follow-up remains one of the most important parts of long-term recovery, even once things start to feel more manageable.
