Depression (major depressive disorder) is a common and serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act. Fortunately, it is also treatable.
Depression causes feelings of sadness and/or a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed. It can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems and can decrease a person’s ability to function at work and at home.
You’ve lived through a lot, and all of it matters which is why at Impireum we offer support that sees the big picture. We look at how your thoughts, emotions, habits, and environment work together, so your care reflects your real needs. You’re not here to be fixed, you’re here to feel heard, supported, and empowered, and that’s what we’re here to help with.
We begin with a thorough assessment of your emotional, physical, and daily struggles. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have dealt with depression for years, this step helps us understand how it shows up in your life and what support you need.
Together, we create a care plan that reflects your goals and pace. This may include talk therapy, behavioral techniques, self-care routines, and collaboration with your psychiatrist if medication is part of your care. Every part of your plan is built around what feels realistic and meaningful to you.
Depression can make progress feel distant; that’s why we stay consistent and responsive. Through regular check-ins, we fine-tune your treatment and build a foundation for lasting change. We aim to help you feel not just better, but supported, empowered, and genuinely hopeful again.
