  • What is the role of medication in mental health treatment?

    Medication and therapy often work together as therapy can help one change their automatic thoughts and unhealthy behaviors, and medication often assists with one's mood and provides the opportunity to think more clearly or with more flexibility. This assists the goals the therapy by helping one make it to their appointments and get less "stuck" in the negative thought cycle. READ MORE

  • Can depression be fixed?

    Depression can be cured for some, but for most it becomes very manageable with both therapy and medication. People often have episodes of depression and will not necessarily feel depressed 100% of the time. With treatment, the episodes can be shorter, less intense, and less debilitating. READ MORE

  • How to get rid of health anxiety?

    Cognitive behavioral therapy would be a great option to treat health-related anxiety. It's also helpful to start acknowledging that the fears that arise are simply "thoughts and not facts". READ MORE

  • Can depression medications cause more harm?

  • What helps with depression?

    Getting into individual therapy is a good first option (I would suggest CBT for depression), and if the depression makes it difficult to do the work you're learning in therapy, the combination of medication for depression and therapy can be very beneficial. READ MORE

  • My mother feels bored and I don't know what to do

    I would encourage your mom to talk to her doctor about feeling down to see if she might be able to start talking to a therapist or potentially take a medication to help with her mood. There are often low cost senior center's that sometimes even offer transportation that you or her could look into as well. Perhaps there's some church or other meet-up groups with folks who speak her native language. Hope this helps! READ MORE
