At Relief Recovery Center, we offer comprehensive and compassionate care for a wide range of mental health conditions. Our team of licensed therapists and clinicians provides evidence-based treatment tailored to each client’s needs, whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health challenges.
Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders can disrupt daily life, making even routine tasks feel overwhelming. Relief Recovery Center offers targeted treatments to help individuals manage anxiety symptoms and regain control.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) involves persistent, excessive worry about various aspects of life. Individuals with GAD often struggle to relax or feel at ease, leading to physical symptoms such as fatigue and restlessness.
- Treatment Options: We utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach supported by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), to help individuals reframe negative thinking patterns and reduce anxiety.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social Anxiety Disorder causes extreme fear of social situations, leading to avoidance and distress. This condition can severely limit interactions with others and affect daily life.
- Treatment Options: Exposure Therapy, recommended by the American Psychological Association (APA), is one of the most effective methods for gradually reducing social anxiety and building confidence in social settings.
Panic Disorder
Panic Disorder is characterized by sudden, intense panic attacks, accompanied by physical symptoms such as heart palpitations, sweating, and shortness of breath. Fear of future attacks often leads to avoidance of certain situations.
- Treatment Options: We combine CBT with relaxation techniques to help individuals manage panic symptoms and regain a sense of control.
Depressive Disorders
Depression can affect every part of life, making it difficult to find joy or motivation. Relief Recovery Center offers specialized treatment for different types of depressive disorders, helping clients rebuild their lives.
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Major Depressive Disorder involves persistent sadness, a loss of interest in activities, and physical symptoms like changes in sleep and appetite. Left untreated, MDD can significantly impact an individual’s well-being.
- Treatment Options: Our approach combines CBT with Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) to help individuals address the underlying causes of depression. These therapies are recognized by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) for their effectiveness in treating depression.
Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)
Persistent Depressive Disorder (also known as dysthymia) is a long-lasting form of depression, where individuals experience chronic low moods, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating for at least two years.
- Treatment Options: We use behavioral activation therapy, alongside CBT, to help clients re-engage with meaningful activities and improve their mood.
Trauma-Related Disorders
Trauma can have lasting effects on mental health. At Relief Recovery Center, we provide trauma-informed care to help clients process and recover from past traumatic experiences.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) occurs when individuals experience or witness a traumatic event. Symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and emotional detachment, which can interfere with daily functioning.
- Treatment Options: Our trauma-informed approach includes CBT and supportive counseling, helping individuals process traumatic experiences and develop coping strategies.
Acute Stress Disorder
Acute Stress Disorder occurs shortly after experiencing a traumatic event and includes symptoms like dissociation, intense anxiety, and emotional numbness. If left untreated, this condition may develop into PTSD.
- Treatment Options: We provide immediate, structured support through CBT and stress management techniques, helping individuals regain emotional stability after trauma.
Postpartum Mental Health
Postpartum mental health challenges can affect mothers in the months following childbirth, causing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and overwhelming emotions. Relief Recovery Center is dedicated to providing specialized care for women navigating postpartum difficulties.
Postpartum Depression
Postpartum Depression affects new mothers after childbirth, leading to feelings of sadness, exhaustion, and detachment from their newborn. This condition can interfere with daily life and affect the mother-child bond.
- Treatment Options: We use CBT and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) to help mothers navigate the emotional and physical changes of postpartum life. According to the American Psychiatric Association (APA), these therapies are highly effective in treating postpartum depression.
Other Conditions We Treat
Gambling Disorder
Gambling Disorder involves a compulsive need to gamble, despite negative consequences. This condition can lead to financial, emotional, and social problems, severely impacting a person’s life.
- Treatment Options: Our team uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, which are recognized by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) for helping individuals manage compulsive behaviors like gambling.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is marked by intrusive, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These behaviors are often performed to reduce anxiety but can interfere with daily functioning.
- Treatment Options: We use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, a method recommended by the International OCD Foundation as one of the most effective treatments for OCD.
Personality Disorders
Personality disorders affect the way individuals think, feel, and interact with others. Conditions like Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can cause unstable relationships, emotional outbursts, and impulsive behaviors.
- Treatment Options: We offer Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which is particularly effective for treating BPD. This therapy focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal skills.
