Joy Mental Health and Psychiatry
Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, board-certified APRN, PMHNP-BC
Depression treatment often combines medication management with a psychiatric evaluation. Here's a breakdown:
Psychiatric Evaluation: A psychiatrist, or sometimes a nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatry, will assess your symptoms, medical history, and overall well-being. This helps diagnose depression and determine its severity.
Medication Management: Based on the evaluation, the psychiatrist may prescribe antidepressants. Different types exist, and finding the right one might involve some trial and error. Regular follow-up visits ensure the medication works effectively and monitor for side effects.
It's important to remember medication is often one piece of the puzzle. Therapy or counseling is frequently recommended alongside medication for a more comprehensive approach to managing depression.

Boston Evening Therapy Associates
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LICSW, LMHC, LCSW
Depression like anxiety presents in many ways across a spectrum from severe to mild but in any form, it is a burden and a concern that is important to address. It can blunt or obscure much or all of the joy of being alive. It is not only a primary cause of suicide in the extreme but even in mild form can cast a pall over the perceived worth and relevance of one's life. In short, the psychic and emotional suffering of depression is vital to address whenever possible and we are prepared, skilled and eager to help you to do so.

William Munze
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CPC, NCC
Depression is one of the most common issues I help clients with. For someone experiencing depression, daily life can feel like an uphill battle. They might struggle to find joy in activities they once loved and feel constantly fatigued, even after a full night's sleep. Simple tasks can seem insurmountable, and feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness can be overwhelming. It's a heavy burden that can make connecting with others and maintaining relationships challenging.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps with depression by identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. You will learn practical strategies to reframe your thinking, manage stress, and improve your mood. By focusing on the present and developing healthier coping mechanisms, CBT can significantly reduce symptoms of depression and improve overall well-being.

Elisabeth Harvey
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Many of the individuals I work with have experienced episodes of or live with chronic depression. It can be hard to share these thoughts and I look to help people process how it affects their lives. Like anxiety, I am not looking to have someone ignore their depression, but to learn to cope with them and think about how they can reframe their thinking in a way that is more realistic.
