Common Questions

Depression in Miami — FAQ.

How do I know if I have depression or just feel sad?+

Clinical depression persists for at least two weeks and interferes with your ability to function — affecting work, relationships, sleep, and daily activities. If sadness or low mood is lasting, it's worth seeking a professional evaluation.

What is ketamine therapy for depression?+

Ketamine-assisted therapy is an evidence-based treatment for treatment-resistant depression. Administered in a clinical setting, it can provide rapid relief for patients who haven't responded to traditional antidepressants.

How long does depression treatment take?+

Treatment duration varies. Some patients respond within weeks; others benefit from longer-term therapy. Our measurement-based approach tracks progress so we can adjust treatment as needed.

Can depression come back after treatment?+

Depression can recur, which is why we focus on building lasting coping skills and may recommend maintenance strategies. Regular follow-up helps catch early signs of relapse.
