Treatment options
Options include antidepressant medication, therapy such as CBT or interpersonal therapy, and changes to sleep and activity. Your psychiatrist checks for bipolar disorder and medical causes such as thyroid problems first, because they change the best treatment.
Care for the Lebanon community
Lebanon is a regional center for healthcare and technology in the Upper Valley, and many residents cross the Connecticut River for work every day. Because our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, Lebanon patients plan video visits for times when they are on the New Hampshire side.
Seasonal and postpartum patterns
Some people notice depression mainly in the darker months, and new parents can develop depression after a baby arrives. Both patterns are recognized and treatable.
Getting care from Lebanon
Our office is in Salem, about an hour and 45 minutes from Lebanon, so most Lebanon patients see us by secure video from home. When an in-person visit is needed, we plan it so the trip is worthwhile.
Frequently asked questions
Will I need medication?
Not always. Milder depression may improve with therapy alone.
What if I have thoughts of suicide?
Call or text 988 at any time, or call 911 if you are in immediate danger, and let your psychiatrist know.
Can depression come back?
It can. Ongoing care and early warning plans help prevent relapse.
Can I have a video visit while I am in Vermont?
No. Our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, so you must be physically in New Hampshire during a video visit.
