Depression commonly manifests physically, through stomach pains, headaches, disrupted or excessive sleep, and motor control difficulty. While the causes of depression are unknown, a predisposition for it runs in families, and it can be triggered by trauma and adverse life circumstances. Depression is diagnosed more frequently in women and tends to display differently in women than in men.
Diagnosing depression involves a psychiatric evaluation and physical tests to determine whether a person’s symptoms are actually being caused by a different disorder. A person must have been experiencing symptoms for at least two weeks to be diagnosed with depression. Every case is unique and requires individual attention, but there are a number of effective complementary ways of treating depression, including:
Talk therapy
Medication
Adopting a healthier lifestyle
Anxiety
While occasional worry is a normal part of life, persistent and intense fear about everyday situations can indicate an anxiety disorder. These overwhelming feelings are often accompanied by physical symptoms like restlessness, a rapid heart rate, and difficulty sleeping, which can significantly disrupt your daily life and relationships. Sego Lily Counseling provides expert anxiety therapy in Salt Lake City and specialized anxiety therapy in Provo, and our offices are in Lehi, Spanish Fork, Pleasant Grove, Taylorsville, Sugar House, and Millcreek as well. Our experienced therapists utilize proven, individualized methods to help you identify triggers, manage symptoms, and build lasting coping strategies.
Diagnosing Anxiety
Identifying an anxiety disorder is a crucial first step toward effective treatment and lasting relief. Diagnosing anxiety involves a thorough psychological evaluation where a therapist will carefully assess your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and physical symptoms. They will evaluate how these factors impact your ability to function at work, school, or home over an extended period. Securing a proper diagnosis ensures that we can tailor the right anxiety therapy to meet your specific needs, empowering you to regain control of your life.
