Why Choose Us for Seasonal Affective Disorder Treatment?
Tailored Treatment Plans for Lasting Relief
At DeLand Treatment Solutions, it is our philosophy that SAD should be treated holistically and individually. Our treatment services include:
Light Therapy
Probably one of the best remedies for SAD, light therapy involves using a special type of lamp—the lightbox, which replicates natural sunlight. It can also regulate circadian rhythms and increase the levels of serotonin, the hormone responsible for good mood and energy.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is employed by our licensed therapists to enable you to change negative thoughts that characterize SAD. CBT will help you develop new ways to deal with the symptoms and remain hopeful as days become shorter.
Medication Management
Some people might be prescribed antidepressant drugs that help to stabilize the concentration of serotonin and reduce the effects of depression. All our psychiatrists understand that each client is unique and will individually consult with you on the type of medicine and how much is safe to take.
Holistic Approaches
Our caring services include counseling, teachings of mindfulness, yoga, and dietary advice: all of it being patient-centered, embracing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of an individual. Psychotherapies support general health and give the client instruments for the preservation of the stable state of the psyche.
Support Groups
However, as we continue at the Ptolemaic table, you’ve got company on this path. SAD Support Groups that we offer include structured experiences of sharing with others, education, and developing our network of support.
