What Is Meant by Mental Health?
The term “mental health” refers to a variety of critical emotional, psychological, and social well-being factors. It affects how individuals think, feel, and behave, influencing every aspect of life, from relationships and work to physical health and daily functioning. A foundation of solid mental health allows people to cope with life’s stressors, work productively, and positively contribute to their community.

These disorders are the most commonly treat, as they are among the most prevalent and debilitating mental health issues people face.
Types of Disorders
Anxiety disorders refer to conditions characterized by excessive and disruptive fear, worry, and physical symptoms. For example, a racing heart, sweating, and trembling. These disorders include generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, and specific phobias. Anxiety can be crippling, affecting all areas of a person’s life. For example, their ability to work and socialize to their physical health.
Depressive disorders is another major focus at Robles Ranch Mental Health. These include major depressive disorder, dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder), postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder. Depression is more than just feeling sad or having a bad day; it is a persistent condition that can drain a person’s energy, motivation, and interest in life. It can lead to serious consequences, including difficulties in personal relationships, work performance, and overall physical health.
Finally, trauma-related disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and acute stress disorder. This trauma related disorders are also central to our treatment approach. Trauma can result from various experiences, including abuse, accidents, natural disasters, and military combat. The psychological impact of trauma is often significant and long-lasting.
