Depression Treatments
Depression treatments at Sunset Malibu in gorgeous Malibu, California are unlike any treatments you'll find at another treatment center. How can we make this claim? We can say this with confidence because we don't use a one-size-fits-all treatment plan. When you arrive at our lavish facility, a therapist will create a custom treatment plan just for you. Your depression treatments will be based on you and your personality. Whether you have ADHD or clinical depression, your needs will be considered, not things off a checklist that are supposed to work for all "depressed people."
Your depression treatments will be the ones that we believe can help you the most. Many of these treatments may be similar to the type of therapy used for other people. For instance, medication like antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication is something that is often helpful. If they are things that we believe will work for you, then your depression treatments will include those therapies. But you may also benefit from alternative therapies like yoga or hypnotherapy. No one can predict what will help you until they start to know you. That's why at Sunset Malibu we based your treatments on you and your needs, not some cookie-cutter plan we use for everyone.
Individualized Depression Treatments
Your unique and individualized depression treatments may begin with medication, but may also include psychotherapy. This is because people who suffer from clinical depression may find that something that happened to them helped to cause it. An abusive childhood, drug or alcohol abuse, a bad marriage and many other things can contribute to serious depression. Depression treatments can work better if all options are explored. You may have depression symptoms that aren't common, or even child depression symptoms can be different. Those symptoms may call for unique depression therapies to help you overcome them.
Some things that make our treatment center unique at Sunset Malibu aren't depression treatments. Instead, they're a way of providing a therapy that you're barely aware of. The beautiful design of the facility is one of our hallmarks. We believe that lovely, peaceful surroundings contribute to mental health. It's easier to let depression treatments work for you when you're not distracted, bored or uncomfortable. A beautiful Pacific Ocean view, lush gardens and ample leisure activities help you feel taken care of and relaxed. When you're relaxed, you can better accept therapy and start to get to the bottom of your depression.
Relief from Depression
Clinical depression can be difficult to overcome. Depressive mental disorders come with built-in features that keep you depressed. You may believe that no depression treatments exist that can help you. It's easy to think that your depression is unlike any other and that standard therapies won't work in your case. Your depression tells you this lie and makes it almost impossible not to believe it. It's not until you're undergoing depression treatments that you can even start to believe that they're going to work.
Most psychologists would agree that you do have to take that first step to see progress. You have to allow yourself to take depression treatments and give yourself the chance to see progress. If you don't try, you'll never really know if it's possible to get relief from crushing depression. It can be so hard to allow yourself even the tiniest hope. Because of your mental disorder, you think that having hope only means that you'll be disappointed. You may believe that it's best not to hope that depression treatments can work. If you don't try, you can't get hurt. But you must decide that your clinical depression is deceiving you. Call Sunset Malibu and talk to a trained counselor. You can't trust your depression, so trust the experts at our treatment center to be honest with you instead.
As with all co-occurring disorders, Sunset Malibu treats depression disorders as a co-occurring disorder with drug and or alcohol abuse.
