Depression

At Alleviant Integrated Mental Health, we understand that depression is more than just feeling down — it’s a deep, often invisible struggle that can touch every corner of your life. If you’re here, you may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or hopeless. We want you to know: you are not alone, and healing is possible.

We believe in treating the whole person — not just the symptoms. Our compassionate, full-service team is here to walk beside you with real solutions that restore balance and empower you to thrive.

What Is Depression?

Depression (major depressive disorder) is a common but serious condition that affects your mood, thoughts, and ability to function. It’s not a sign of weakness, and it’s not something you can just “snap out of.” It’s a medical condition that deserves understanding, compassion, and evidence-based care.

Signs & Symptoms of Depression

• Persistent sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness

• Loss of interest or pleasure in things you used to enjoy

• Changes in sleep — trouble falling or staying asleep, or sleeping too much

• Appetite or weight changes

• Low energy or fatigue

• Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

• Feelings of guilt, shame, or worthlessness

• Thoughts of death, dying, or suicide

Everyone experiences depression differently. Your symptoms are real, and your story matters.

Our Comprehensive, Team-Based Approach

At Alleviant, we provide comprehensive psychiatric care — meaning we’re equipped to handle all of your mental health needs under one roof. From therapy and medication management to advanced treatments like TMS and Spravato®, our integrated care team works together to support every part of your healing journey.

We practice what we call Objective Psychiatry — a revolutionary approach that uses real, measurable data to inform diagnosis and guide treatment. Through spectral EEG (sEEG) brain mapping, we can now visualize the brain’s electrical activity — providing the first true “vital sign for the brain.” This allows us to move beyond guesswork and create a more accurate, personalized path to recovery.
