We Assist You to Stabilize and Enhance Mood Conditions
Mood disorders occur in nearly 9.7% of adults every year in the United States, including major depressive episodes, bipolar disorder, and chronic mood disturbances that severely disrupt emotional control and functioning in daily life.
About Our Treatment for Mood Disorder
Mood disorders are a type of psychiatric disorder characterized by extreme shifts in emotional state, energy levels, and behavior that interfere with normal functioning over lengthy periods. We treat major depressive disorder with recurring episodes, bipolar I and II disorders with manic and depressive episodes, cyclothymic disorder with recurring fluctuations in mood, and seasonal affective pattern that follows changes in the environment during the different seasons of the year at One Stop Mental Health Clinic.
Our mood disorder treatment employs a combination of psychopharmacological treatments with psychotherapeutic modalities. Our board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner conducts comprehensive psychiatric exams that involve mood charting, family psychiatric history, and medical screening to provide precise diagnoses and rule out other reasons for mood instability. Treatment plans may include mood stabilizing meds like lithium and anticonvulsants, antidepressant therapy during depressed episodes, mood pattern recognition psychoeducation, and crisis intervention planning for extreme episodes.
