Depression is often a symptom of an underlying issue that affects a person’s well-being. Depression can manifest itself with feelings of hopelessness, loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed, sleeping too much or too little, and struggling to concentrate.
It’s estimated that one in six people will experience depression at some point in their lives. But depression is not a sign of weakness – it’s a real and serious medical condition that can be treated. You don’t have to struggle with depression on your own. Meet with us and let’s discuss holistic options and together we can explore the root cause of your depression.
Anxiety is a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease. It is often accompanied by physical symptoms such as an increased heart rate, sweating, and shaking. Anxiety can be a normal reaction to stress, but it can also be a sign of an anxiety disorder.
People with anxiety disorders often have difficulty managing their anxiety and may avoid situations that trigger their symptoms. This can lead to difficulties with school, work, or relationships.
If you are experiencing anxiety, there are things you can do to help manage your symptoms. You can talk to your doctor about treatment options, including medication and therapy. You can also try relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or mindfulness practice.
Insomnia is a condition that can make it difficult to fall or stay asleep. People with insomnia may feel tired during the day and have trouble concentrating. Insomnia can occur both as a short-term (acute) and long-term (chronic) condition.
There are many possible causes of insomnia, including stress, anxiety, medical conditions, environmental factors, and medications. Some people may have difficulty sleeping due to shift work or jet lag.
Treatment for insomnia may include making lifestyle changes, such as avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bedtime. Other treatments include cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques, and sleep medication. If you think you may have insomnia, schedule a time to talk with us to help you get the full night’s rest you need.
The behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are a group of symptoms that often occur together in people with dementia. These symptoms can include changes in mood, behavior, and cognition. The exact cause of BPSD is unknown. However, it is thought that BPSD may be caused by a combination of factors, including:
- The physiological changes in the brain that occur with dementia
- Side effects from medications
- Other medical conditions
- Environmental factors
BPSD can be a challenge for both the patient and their caregivers. Fortunately, we can help you manage these symptoms.
Mental health conditions are very common, affecting millions of people around the world. Mental health conditions can impact anyone, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, or social status. In fact, one in five adults in the United States lives with a mental health condition.
Mental health conditions can cause a wide range of symptoms that can interfere with daily life, including feeling depressed or anxious, having trouble concentrating, sleep disorders, and losing interest in your hobbies.
While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to managing mental health conditions, we can start our journey of self-healing together.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurological disorders among children in the United States. Characterized by the inability to focus on tasks for long periods of time, ADHD often gets in the way of a child’s ability to focus in school. Through adulthood, ADHD can start affecting a patient’s work habits and lifestyle.
If you find yourself or your child struggling to keep up with daily routines because of ADHD, we encourage you to come in and see one of our experts. They’ll be happy to sit down with you, listen to your concerns, provide you with an accurate diagnosis, and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you get your life back on track.
