What Conditions Do We Treat?
At Robles Ranch Mental Health, we specialize in treating a wide range of anxiety, depression, and trauma disorders that can significantly impact daily life. Our comprehensive approach addresses the specific challenges of each condition, helping clients find relief from overwhelming fear, worry, or stress. Below are some of the anxiety, depression, and trauma disorders we treat at our facility, each with its own set of symptoms and treatment needs.
Anxiety Disorders
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
GAD is characterized by persistent, excessive worry or fear that can feel overwhelming and irrational. Symptoms often include restlessness, difficulty sleeping, trouble concentrating, sweating, shaking, headaches, and stomach issues.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety is characterized by an extreme or intense fear of being rejected, judged, or humiliated in public settings. This often leads to avoidance of social situations and isolation.
Panic Disorder
Panic disorder involves sudden and/or unexpected panic attacks, which may cause physical symptoms, including racing heart, chest pain, shortness of breath, trembling, sweating, and dizziness.
Specific Phobia
This condition involves an intense, irrational fear of a particular object, place, or situation, leading to avoidance behaviors that disrupt daily life.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
OCD is defined by intrusive, obsessive thoughts that cause anxiety and lead to repetitive behaviors or rituals in an attempt to reduce the distress.
Depressive Disorders
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
MDD is marked by ongoing feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair. Common symptoms include changes in sleep and eating patterns, a loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities, difficulty concentrating, and thoughts of suicide.
Postpartum Depression
This type of depression occurs after childbirth, with symptoms similar to MDD, such as overwhelming fatigue, irritability, and anxiety. It may also lead to difficulty in caring for oneself or the baby.
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
PMDD involves severe premenstrual symptoms, including mood swings, irritability, depression, and feelings of hopelessness.
Dysthymia (Persistent Depressive Disorder)
A chronic form of depression that is less intense than MDD but lasts for over two years, with little to no periods of relief.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
SAD is a type of depression triggered by reduced sunlight during the winter months, often leading to low energy, excessive sleep, and vitamin D deficiency.
Trauma Disorders
Acute Stress Disorder (ASD)
ASD involves anxiety, trouble sleeping, flashbacks or nightmares, emotional numbness, social withdrawal and heightened startle responses. These symptoms typically occur after a traumatic event and last for less than one month.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
PTSD presents with similar symptoms to ASD, including flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, and emotional detachment. However, these symptoms persist for a month or more following the traumatic experience.
