Sustainable Healing Starts Here

Recover From Your Depression With MBO

You are more than your depression. Let our Mind Body Optimization team of experts guide you on a path toward resilience, growth, and healing.

Whole-Person Healing That Looks at More Than Just Your Symptoms

Forget what you think you know about depression. It’s not a weakness, not a character flaw, and it certainly doesn’t define you.

Depression doesn’t discriminate. At Mind Body Optimization (MBO), we know that nearly 30% of Americans have now battled depression at some point, and almost 18% are wrestling with it right now.

We also know that depression is more than just a set of symptoms or feelings of sadness. It’s often a result of combined mental and physical factors that can leave you feeling isolated, hopeless, and drained of energy, impacting your relationships, work, and overall well-being.

Our knowledgeable and compassionate team is committed to empowering those struggling with depression to rebuild their sense of self, develop resilience, and lead a happy and fulfilling life.

We See You As a Whole Person, Not Just a Set of Symptoms

At MBO, we take a holistic approach to depression treatment. Our treatment and healing plans tend to the entire individual, including their mind, body, spirit, and emotions, during healing. The goal of holistic medicine is optimal, lasting health and wellness for the whole person.

By looking at depression through a holistic lens, we can treat more than just its symptoms. While MBO uses evidence-based practices to treat depression on every level, our interconnected treatment allows us to dig deep and address its root causes.

Integrative Treatment Methods

Treatment for depression is by no means a one-size-fits-all process. For treatment to be effective and truly comprehensive, it has to be personal.

When creating your custom treatment plan, we take the following into account:

The severity and duration of depressive symptoms
Pre-existing medical conditions or possible medical complications
Co-occurring emotional, behavioral, or cognitive complications

Your willingness and readiness to make changes
The potential for your depression to worsen or experience a relapse in symptoms following treatment
Your home environment
Personal goals and desires for treatment

We offer innovative treatment modalities that truly meet you where you’re at. This way, we pave a path to wellness for individuals of all backgrounds, such as those who have undergone traditional treatment programs in the past without long-term success.

Evidence-Based Treatment Opportunities That Serve Your Full Spectrum of Needs

Many of our Mind Body Optimization team have undergone treatment themselves. We know what it takes to establish long-term well-being, and we’re committed to collaborating with you on a treatment plan that fully meets your unique set of needs, goals, and experiences.

Some of our scientifically-backed depression treatments include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This helps you address and change problematic thinking patterns.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): DBT helps you manage emotions and behaviors while also improving relationships.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): This treatment uses eye movement or other bilateral stimulation to help people heal and process emotional distress or trauma.
PTSD Therapy/Trauma Focused Approach: This is focused on addressing unresolved trauma.
Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT): This helps address irrational thoughts and emotional patterns.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Coming Soon): This is the therapeutic use of non-invasive magnets to stimulate regions of the brain affected by depression.

Holistic Wellness Opportunities to Complement Your Comprehensive Treatment Plan

At MBO, we know how intimate and interconnected the relationship is between the mind and body. We know that depression often manifests physically too, in the form of fatigue, aches, changes in appetite and sleep, and even reduced immunity.

Because the brain and body and in constant communication, your depression treatment should facilitate whole-person healing. Incorporating physical wellness into depression treatment can improve treatment outcomes by 22%.

Some of our integrative wellness opportunities include:

Experiential Therapy:

This is a hands-on therapy rooted in movement and creative expression. It includes activities like exercise, yoga, dance, art, and more.

Motivational Enhancement and Interviewing:

This therapeutic technique is designed to help individuals find their personal motivational force to change.

Meditation/Mindfulness:

Meditation allows you to become aware of your thoughts and feelings and how they affect you. Meditation can also provide relief from anxious or depressive symptoms.

Nutritional Support and Counseling (Coming Soon):

A healthy mind begins with a well-nourished body. Nutritional counseling gives you the tools to tend to yourself through diet.

Achieve Sustainable Health and Wellness With Our Dual Diagnosis Treatment Programs

At MBO, we recognize that depression often doesn’t exist in isolation – for instance, a staggering 32% of individuals with a mood disorder also struggle with substance use disorder (SUD).

We are committed to treating all your needs under one roof with our dual diagnosis treatment programs.

In addition to depression, we will help you heal from any co-occurring disorders, such as:

Substance addictions, such as alcohol use disorder (AUD) or drug addiction
Behavioral addictions, such as video game addiction or kleptomania
Mental health conditions or struggles, such as anxiety, grief, or OCD

Outpatient Treatment On Your Terms

Acknowledging signs of depression is a courageous act in itself, and reaching out for necessary support is something to be immensely proud of. At MBO, we would hate for that initial step toward wellness to be blocked by a lack of accessibility or resources.

We’re here to help you create a path for healing that is uniquely on your own terms. Our soon-to-come outpatient and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) depression treatment programs will work within the confines of your schedule, enabling you to heal at your own pace.

Our experts include:

Licensed Therapists
Psychiatrists
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners
Nutritionists (Coming Soon)

We work collaboratively and compassionately guide you toward long-lasting healing and relief.
