Family and Relationship issues
Relationships, whether family, personal, or
work-related, have their ups and downs. While
relationships can be some of the best things in
life, they can also be a source of stress and
problems. Working with a psychologist, either
individually or in a group setting, can help iron
out wrinkles that can form in even the strongest
relationships. Some unhealthy habits such
as smoking, drinking, and drug use are often used
to escape larger underlying problems or to
self-medicate. While your psychologist will help
you get to those problems, they can also help you
tackle the problems immediately facing your
health.

Treatment for Depression

• Depression isn't a sign of weakness. It's not
  something you can just "snap out of." It's an
  illness that requires professional treatment. Yet
  with the right care, people can feel better.
• Antidepressant medications can be helpful for
  reducing depression symptoms in some people,
  especially in people with severe depression.
  Psychotherapy is also an effective treatment,
  either alone or in combination with medications.
  The benefits of psychotherapy may have an
  enduring effect that protects against symptoms
  returning even after treatment is ended.
