Mental Health Treatment Q&A

What is mental health treatment?

Mental health treatment includes many different therapies that help you overcome any issue affecting your mental, emotional, and behavioral well-being.

Though many people seek treatment for mental health disorders, the team at Whole Wellness Counseling understands that your mental health is influenced by every aspect of your life.

When creating your treatment plan, they consider variables like daily stress, lifestyle habits, social life, physical health, and work satisfaction.

These life variables affect your mental health, just as having a mental health disorder affects your success and happiness in every facet of life. Your therapist works with you to address all of your needs during your mental health treatment.

What conditions are included in mental health treatment?

Anxiety
Depression and mood disorders
Behavior problems
Grief and trauma
Schizophrenia
Substance abuse and addiction
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

What signs may indicate that I need mental health treatment?

Though mental health disorders cause many possible symptoms, this list includes some of the warning signs that frequently appear:

Preferring to be alone
Avoiding activities you usually enjoy
Struggling with low energy and fatigue
Feeling sad, hopeless, or worthless
Sleeping too much or too little
Abusing alcohol and/or drugs
Experiencing mood swings
Destroying property
Having unwanted and uncontrollable thoughts
Having flashbacks or dreams of trauma
Feeling angry and/or acting aggressively
Being unable to control your emotions
Having delusions or hallucinations
Thinking about suicide

Delusions are thoughts or ideas you firmly believe that aren’t real. Hallucinations occur when you see, feel, hear, or smell things that aren’t really there.

When any emotional or behavioral problem occurs frequently or is severe enough to interfere with daily life, it’s time to connect with the caring therapists at Whole Wellness Counseling.

What should I expect during mental health treatment?

During your first visit, your therapist talks with you, learns about your symptoms and concerns, and completes a psychological assessment. After diagnosing your mental health disorder, they develop a treatment plan and recommend a therapeutic approach that fits your individual mental health needs.
