Feeling down, sad, or hopeless? It’s normal to experience these emotions from time to time, but if they persist and begin to interfere with your daily life, it may be a sign of depression. Depression isn’t something you can simply “snap out of” or overcome on your own. It’s a serious mental health condition, and professional help is the best way to get better. Our depression treatment center approaches treatment from a Biblical worldview, meaning you’ll be supported by mental health professionals who understand the importance of your faith in mental health treatment.
We recognize each person is uniquely created, having three spheres—spirit, mind, and body—dynamically intertwined, affecting each other and thus determining how people process and respond to the world around them. Every individual in our care benefits not only from our holistic approach and clinical expertise but also from the peace and serenity of our lakeside campus.
There is life beyond depression. Learn more about our mental health treatment programs by calling 888.428.0562 today.
Understanding Depression
Depression is a complex condition with many contributing factors. It’s characterized by feelings of sadness, helplessness, and hopelessness, but it can also manifest in physical symptoms like changes in appetite, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating. Some of the most common types of depression we treat at Honey Lake Clinic include:
- Major depressive disorder
- Postpartum depression
- Seasonal affective disorder (SAD)
It’s important to note that depression affects each person differently, and there is no one-size-fits-all treatment approach. That’s why our faith-based depression treatment program takes a personalized approach to care, addressing each patient’s unique needs and challenges.
Signs You May Need Depression Treatment
It’s not always easy to recognize when someone is struggling with depression. Sometimes, the signs may be subtle or easily dismissed. However, if you can answer “yes” to several of the following questions, it may be time to seek professional help:
- Have you been feeling sad, hopeless, or down for more than two weeks?
- Do you frequently experience feelings of guilt or worthlessness?
- Are you struggling with low energy and motivation?
- Have you lost interest in activities that used to bring you joy?
- Are your sleeping patterns disrupted (sleeping too much or too little)?
- Have you noticed changes in your appetite (increased or decreased)?
- Is it difficult for you to concentrate on tasks or make decisions?
If any of these symptoms sound familiar, don’t hesitate to reach out for help. Depression is a treatable condition, and with the right support, you can find relief and reclaim your life.
Our Approach to Treating Depression
Although psychopharmacology can be helpful in many instances, it is never curative. At Honey Lake Clinic, we appropriately prescribe and carefully monitor psychiatric medications to help control psychiatric symptoms. However, our primary focus is to address the underlying spiritual, psychological, and social factors that contribute to depression.
Upon arrival at Honey Lake Clinic, you’ll be assigned a multidisciplinary team consisting of a psychiatric specialist, licensed therapists, and nursing staff who initially perform a comprehensive behavioral health bio-psycho-spiritual assessment and psychological profile.
Our holistic treatment program may include:
- Individual therapy with a licensed therapist
- Group therapy and support groups with peers on a similar journey
- Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy
- Neurofeedback therapy
- Art therapy and other expressive arts activities
- Equine program
- Nutritious meal plans designed to support brain health and emotional balance
- Exercise and fitness classes to promote physical wellness
- Pastoral counseling, worship, and prayer services
This is not an exhaustive list—as your treatment progresses, we may recommend additional therapies to maximize your recovery. Devotionals, application-based Bible studies, and guided prayer are incorporated into our treatment program as well.
