What is Depression Therapy?
Major depression is a serious mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in daily activities. At Envision Mind Care, we offer a variety of depression therapy options that are designed to target the underlying causes of depression while alleviating symptoms to improve overall mental well-being.
Depression therapy refers to a variety of therapeutic interventions aimed at treating the symptoms and underlying drivers of clinical depression. At Envision, your care plan may include:
-
Including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a widely used approach that helps individuals identify and reshape negative thought patterns while building healthier and more adaptive emotional responses.
-
Guided by psychiatrists with a deep understanding of treatment resistance and side effect sensitivity. We aim to find the right medication fit while minimizing common concerns such as weight changes or sexual side effects.
-
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is one of the innovative options available at our clinic and may be suitable for individuals who have not found success with traditional approaches.
-
For select cases, physicians may explore Health Canada-approved treatment options that align with current clinical guidelines. These may include therapies supported by evolving research in the field of mood disorders.
Our Depression Treatment Program
We specialize in treating treatment-resistant depression using an intensive outpatient program focused on evidence-based therapies. Our approach combines conventional treatments with novel therapies, providing clients with the depression help Edmonton residents have come to rely on for effective results. Our goal is not only to alleviate your depressive symptoms but also to enhance your cognitive abilities, including attention and concentration, so you can perform better in your professional and personal life.
Our Step-by-Step Depression Treatment Process
Step 1: Initial Assessment with Therapist and Consultant Psychiatrist
Upon admission to our program, you will receive a thorough assessment by our experienced therapists or consultant psychiatrist. This assessment will involve evaluating your symptoms, medical history, and personal goals for treatment. We take the time to understand your unique needs and tailor a treatment plan that fits you.
Step 2: Diagnostic Clarity
Once the assessment is complete, we will provide you with a clear understanding of your diagnosis. Our team will explain in simple terms what depression is, its causes, and how it may manifest in your specific case. We believe that education and understanding are crucial in empowering you to take an active role in your treatment journey.
Step 3: Personalized Treatment Planning
Once we have completed your assessment and clarified your diagnosis, our team will design a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and history.
This may include a combination of Evidence-based treatments such as:
Medication: Many individuals have previously tried SSRIs or SNRIs with limited results. Our psychiatrists and Mental Health Specialist General Practitioners, specialize in treatment-resistant depression and concurrent conditions. They will assess options such as medication switching, augmentation strategies, or newer agents with more favorable side effect profiles. For appropriate candidates, treatments such as intranasal esketamine (Spravato®), intranasal (Racemic ketamine), or intramuscular ketamine (Ketamine HCL), may be discussed and offered in accordance with Health Canada regulations and under close medical supervision. *
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): TMS is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, showing efficacy in reducing depression symptoms, particularly for those who have not responded to traditional therapies. This program is typically 5 days a week for 6 weeks - each session lasting around 45 min to 1 hour. Accelerated treatment programs are also available but are recommended on a case by case basis.
Psychotherapy : CBT is a widely recognized and effective treatment for depression, focusing on identifying and modifying maladaptive thoughts , feeling and behaviors to improve mood and overall functioning. We hope to provide psychological therapy along with your other treatments.
Wellness Supports: Based on your care plan, we may integrate services like physiotherapy, nutrition support, and mindfulness-based approaches to support holistic recovery.
All components of your plan are continuously monitored and adjusted based on your response, ensuring your care evolves with you.
Step 4: Program Duration
The duration of your depression treatment program will vary depending on the nature and severity of your illness. Your program may span 6 to 12 weeks, with intensive support throughout. For clients visiting from out of province or internationally, we offer condensed options lasting 4 to 6 weeks.
If you are from out of province or out of Country we will offer you treatment programs which can be shortened to 4 weeks.
Step 5: Follow-Up Care
Recovery is a process. We continue to offer follow-up support for up to 6 months after completion of your treatment. Ongoing care may include therapy, medication reviews, or virtual check-ins—ensuring continuity no matter where you are.
