Depression Treatment

Clearview Depression TreatmentDepression means more than just feeling sad and down on occasion. The symptoms of depression can make it difficult for you to make decisions, cause constant fatigue, and leave you feeling worthless, hopeless, and irritable. If left untreated, depression can interfere with your enjoyment of everyday life and may even lead to thoughts of suicide.

Fortunately, depression is highly treatable – and we can help. Clearview Treatment Programs in Southern California can provide you the individualized depression treatment you need to successfully recover from your depression. Our depression treatment center addresses all types of depression, including Major Depression, Dysthymia, and Manic Depression.

We offer multiple levels of care, including residential treatment, day treatment, and outpatient treatment, so that you can get the depression treatment that will give you the best chance at a long-term recovery.

If you suffer from depression combined with drug or alcohol abuse, our dual diagnosis treatment center can help you with your co-occurring disorders.

How We Can Help Treat Your Depression

No two people experience depression in the same way. But no matter the severity, duration, or frequency of your depression, Clearview’s depression treatment center in Los Angeles can help you.

At Clearview Treatment Programs, we can effectively treat your depression through a combination of individual and group therapy and antidepressant medication. Depression treatment at Clearview includes the following:

  • One to three individual therapy sessions per week with Ph.D. and master’s-level therapists trained in depression therapy.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you change the negative thoughts and beliefs that are characteristic of depressive disorders.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you learn to better regulate your emotions and change the habitual withdrawal and passivity of depression.
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Somatic Experiencing (SE) therapies to help you strengthen your sense of self and work through unresolved or underlying trauma.
  • Process groups that will allow you to identify your present emotional state and learn to better express yourself.
  • Trauma, grief, and loss group to help you work through underlying issues that may be causing your depression.

Upon admission to any of Clearview’s depression treatment programs, you will receive a thorough psychiatric evaluation to determine if antidepressants or other medications are necessary. Our psychiatrist will meet with you regularly to evaluate your response to medication and make adjustments as needed. You will also receive a comprehensive psychosocial assessment and treatment plan that will help alleviate your symptoms of depression.

Our holistic approach to depression treatment includes yoga, exercise, and healthy diet and nutrition to treat the body as well as the mind. Therapeutic massage and acupuncture are also available. Our unique location 1 mile from the Pacific Ocean allows you to take advantage of the Los Angeles weather by going on calming walks at the beach and participating in other outdoor recreational activities.

If you have depression in conjunction with substance abuse, you may be suffering from a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder. At our dual diagnosis treatment center, issues of drug and alcohol addiction will be treated along with your depression. Our skilled staff of experts in dual diagnosis and depression treatment will provide you with the specialized treatment you need to help you recover. As part of your treatment, you will receive drug and alcohol counseling, participate in relapse prevention groups, and attend a daily 12-step meeting and a 12-step study group.
