Therapy is a proven treatment that helps people to recover from emotional unrest. Therapy improves the person’s ability to cope with challenges.

​

Life can be extremely difficult at times. Everyone can experience the loss of a loved one, financial difficulties, disease, misunderstandings, abuse, etc. Depression, fear, anxiety, and confusion are part of the normal range of the human experience.

​

Most often, people can adapt and overcome the obstacles and challenges of life. Sometimes, though, a person may feel unable to cope. Stressful situations such as unemployment, marital discord, or an unsettling home environment will result in persistent feelings of sadness, helplessness, and anxiety.

​

If your treatment requires the use of psychotropic medication, you will be provided with a medication brochure and specific information about each type of medication prescribed for you.

​

Medication may be used for long or limited periods of time and in the minimal dosage required to help you. The possible benefits must clearly outweigh the possible risks. Medication is generally prescribed only in conjunction with the therapy provided by NYCACTS, Inc.
