Millions of Americans struggle with their mental health.
But you don’t have to deal with challenges like anxiety and depression on your own. Seeking professional help is a proven way to move forward in life. But what kind of care do you need, and where should you get it?
At Tru Dallas, we offer a wide variety of mental health treatment options from some of Texas’s leading experts. Our team can design a personalized strategy around your unique needs. Plus, we can fold in treatment for substance abuse if you need it.
Keep reading to learn more about how we can help you move forward with your mental health.
Do You Need Mental Health Support?
The first question many people have is whether they need mental health treatment. To answer that question, consider your symptoms. If you’re experiencing some of the following, then there’s a good chance that now is the right time to pursue treatment:
- Loss of interest in passions you previously held
- Declining relationships with friends and family
- Sudden changes in sleep and appetite
- Difficulty coping with stress and challenging situations
- Substance abuse
- Declining personal hygiene and physical health
- Thoughts of suicide and self-harm
If you have these symptoms, then it’s important to get proactive about seeking treatment. It’s hard to resolve mental health challenges without the right support system in place. The longer you wait to build that support system, the more you may struggle under the weight of conditions like depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
How Mental Health Treatment Works
Studies have consistently shown that seeking professional help is the best way to heal a mental health challenge. At Tru Dallas, we offer several forms of support to patients struggling with these conditions. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in each of the following, which will help you heal in different ways.
1-on-1 Therapy Sessions
Most importantly, you’ll get to participate in 1-on-1 therapy sessions with someone who specializes in the condition you’re experiencing. This can help you understand the root causes of your challenges in life. Your therapist can also help you find new ways for coping with your symptoms, helping you find balance and peace.
You’ll get to work with your therapist for as long as you need them. That often means starting with more sessions initially. Then, as you make progress, gradually transitioning into a maintenance phase. The actual number of sessions you complete weekly or monthly will vary based on your progress, among other factors.
Group Meetings
Next, you’ll get the chance to participate in group support meetings. These are an opportunity to engage with other people who are going through similar circumstances. You’ll get to tell your story, listen to what your peers have experienced, and benefit from the social support.
Group meetings turn recovery into a community effort. They ensure you’re not working through challenging conditions like depression or social anxiety on your own. There are also special support groups for people who are experiencing different mental health challenges. These can help you get even more value out of the time you spend in treatment.
Holistic Healing Activities
Finally, we offer a variety of holistic healing services at Tru Dallas. These are designed to help you feel better physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The holistic healing services you participate in can unite the mind, body, and spirit in recovery. It’s another way that we help patients get more value out of the time they spend in treatment.
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Treatment
Many people who struggle with their mental health use drugs and alcohol to cope. That’s why we also offer dual diagnosis rehab — a special form of care for people who need help with both substance abuse and mental health.
Dual diagnosis rehab is specially designed to address the ways in which these problems feed each other. For example, turning to alcohol to cope with depression is common, but it can also make you feel more depressed. This creates a vicious cycle that’s hard to escape from without the proper support.
If you think you’d benefit from dual diagnosis care, get in touch. We can walk you through your options for inpatient and outpatient rehab and make a personalized recommendation based on your story.
Mental Health Treatment FAQs
How long does mental health recovery take?
There’s no set timeline for recovering from mental health challenges. Each person responds to treatment differently and may take shorter or longer to make progress. Plus, some mental health conditions can take longer to address than others.
You’ll work with your therapist to find a timeline that meets your needs. That could mean meeting once a week for the next several months. Or, you may need a few sessions weekly at first before tapering off into a mental health maintenance plan. It’ll depend on you and how you respond to treatment, among other factors.
Is mental health treatment an inpatient or outpatient service?
You can receive mental health care in an inpatient or outpatient setting. It depends on how severe your condition is and whether you have co-occurring substance abuse, among other factors. You can often choose between inpatient and outpatient care based on your personal preferences.
How much does mental health care cost?
The amount you pay for treatment will depend on your insurance coverage. Some plans cover most of the costs of care, while others may ask you to pay a higher percentage out of pocket. You can contact one of the mental health specialists at Tru Dallas to get a personalized quote.
