Is depression curable?

With professional treatment—including therapy, lifestyle changes, and sometimes medication—the vast majority of people achieve significant recovery and return to their normal lives.

How do I know if I need a psychiatrist or a counselor?

Our intake team can help you decide. Generally, if symptoms are severe (thoughts of self-harm, inability to work), a psychiatrist's evaluation is the best starting point.

Will my treatment be confidential?

Absolutely. Patient privacy is our highest ethical priority. Your records and sessions are strictly confidential.

How long does depression treatment usually take before I see results?

individual’s journey is unique. Most patients begin to feel a noticeable lift in their mood and energy levels within 2 to 4 weeks of starting a combined plan of medication and therapy. However, for long-term stability and to prevent relapse, we typically recommend continuing the treatment program for several months as advised by our psychiatrists.
