Depression Treatment in Arlington, TX

Understanding Depression

Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming. There’s hope, though, as it’s also one of the most treatable mental health conditions.

At The Hinds Group in Arlington, we understand that depression looks different for everyone. Whether you’re feeling persistently sad, unmotivated, or emotionally numb, we’re here to help you find relief and hope again through personalized, evidence-based psychiatric care.

Our psychiatrist cares about you and how you feel, so we take a compassionate, whole-person approach — addressing both the biological and emotional factors. Recovery is not only feasible but is the anticipated outcome when the necessary care is provided.

Recognizing the Symptoms

Depression can affect how you think, feel, and function, but it often develops gradually. Recognizing the signs is the first step toward healing.

Common symptoms may include:

  • Persistent sadness, emptiness, or irritability
  • Loss of interest or pleasure in activities
  • Fatigue or low energy
  • Changes in appetite or sleep
  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
  • Feelings of guilt, hopelessness, or worthlessness
  • Physical symptoms such as headaches or stomach pain

If you relate to these signs, you’re not alone — and help that values you is available. With the right treatment and consistent support, you can recover and feel like yourself again.

Types of Depression We Treat

The Hinds Group provides depression treatment for a wide range of conditions, including:

  • Major Depressive Disorder (MDD): Persistent sadness or loss of interest lasting at least two weeks.
  • Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia): Chronic, milder depression lasting two years or longer.
  • Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Depression related to seasonal or light changes.
  • Postpartum Depression: Mood changes and sadness following childbirth.
  • Depression with Anxiety Features: A combination of low mood and excessive worry or tension.
  • Treatment-Resistant Depression: Depression that hasn’t improved with prior medications or therapies.

Your care, your way. We’ll assess your symptoms and history, so you receive treatment that works specifically for you. Since we consider all options in order to come up with the most accurate diagnosis, we’ll also look for symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, or a mood disorder.

Our Approach to Depression Treatment

Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation

Every patient begins with a thorough, compassionate evaluation. We take time to understand your symptoms, medical and family history, stressors, and overall health. Our psychiatrist conducts thorough assessments to ensure an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan tailored to your life, values, and goals.

Personalized Treatment Plans 

Your care plan may include:

  • Medication management — antidepressants or mood stabilizers as appropriate
  • Collaboration with recommended therapy providers — such as cognitive-behavioral (CBT), interpersonal (IPT), or mindfulness-based therapies
  • Lifestyle recommendations — including sleep improvement, nutrition, and physical activity
  • Regular follow-up appointments to track progress and refine treatment as needed

We focus on helping you regain energy, motivation, and connection in your daily life, one step at a time, at your own pace.

Medication Management 

If medication is part of your treatment, we’ll guide you through every option and answer your questions openly. Our psychiatrists monitor your progress closely, making thoughtful adjustments to minimize side effects and optimize well-being. Every decision is made collaboratively — you’re always part of the process.

What to Expect from Treatment

Your First Visit 

Your first telehealth appointment is a safe, judgment-free evaluation. You’ll meet with one of our psychiatrists to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and goals. Together, we’ll design a treatment plan that feels right for you.

The Early Weeks of Treatment 

Most patients begin noticing small but meaningful improvements within several weeks of consistent care. During this time, we’ll meet regularly to monitor your response, adjust medications if needed, and support your emotional progress.

Ongoing Support and Long-Term Care

Healing from depression is a process — and we’ll be with you every step of the way. Our psychiatrist provides ongoing care to help you stay stable, build resilience, and maintain emotional balance even after symptoms improve. You deserve care that’s as consistent and patient as recovery itself. We’re committed to helping you rediscover your energy, clarity, and hope throughout every chapter of your life.

FAQs About Depression Treatment

If sadness, exhaustion, or disinterest lasts more than two weeks and affects your ability to function, it may be depression. Our psychiatrist can help you determine what’s happening and create a treatment plan that fits your needs.

For many patients, antidepressant medication can ease symptoms and improve brain chemistry — especially when paired with therapy and healthy routines. We’ll work with you to find the right balance.

Treatment duration varies. Some people feel better within weeks, while others benefit from several months of consistent care. The key is ongoing communication and collaboration with your provider.
