Depression > See the Complete List

Depression is characterized by a constant feeling of sadness and loss of interest that stops you from your normal activities. Symptoms can range from minor to extremely severe and life threatening. There is no single cause of depression and often has a variety of triggers depending on the person’s unique history. For people suffering from a chronic illness, depression is typically common.

Mental health counseling is important to combat depression. Even if depression is a result of chronic illness, counseling can help restore a sense of wellbeing, empowerment and hope and can have an impact on the outcome of the therapeutic intervention of one’s chronic illness. Recent research strongly suggests a connection between a healthy gut microbiome and mental health. The Stram Center can do advanced testing to determine the status of one’s intestinal health and what impact it may play in the Gut-Brain dynamic. We can then determine the best treatment plan for the individual.
