Depression care for Northwood residents
For commuters to Concord, Dover and Manchester in Northwood, depression can show up as low energy, losing interest in weekends, poor sleep or simply pushing through each day. We see teens from Coe-Brown Northwood Academy as well as adults, and we coordinate with therapists and primary care so treatment fits real life.
Living in Northwood
Northwood is a lake town along Route 4 between Concord and the Seacoast. High school students often attend Coe-Brown Northwood Academy. The drive to Salem is close to an hour, so video visits are common.
How we treat depression
- A full evaluation, including checks for bipolar disorder, thyroid and other medical causes
- Antidepressant options explained clearly, including how long they take to work
- Referral to therapy such as CBT or interpersonal therapy
- Closer follow-up in the first weeks, when side effects and early changes matter most
- A new plan if earlier medications did not help, including combination or augmentation strategies
