Conditions We Treat

Anxiety disorders are among the most common conditions we treat at CREATE — extending beyond everyday worry into patterns that disrupt daily functioning, relationships, and work.

We support clients navigating:

• Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD): Chronic, excessive worry about various aspects of life such as health, work, or relationships.
• Panic Disorder: Recurrent panic attacks and persistent fear of future episodes.
• Social Anxiety Disorder: Intense fear or avoidance of social situations due to embarrassment or fear of judgment.
• Specific Phobias: Debilitating fear of a particular object or situation.

Treatment draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions to reduce symptoms and build long-term, sustainable coping strategies.

Depression and mood disorders affect how a person feels, thinks, and functions day to day. We provide care for clients navigating:

• Major Depressive Disorder (MDD): Persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.
• Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia): Long-term, chronic depression that may be less severe but more enduring.
• Bipolar Disorder: Cycles of depressive lows and manic or hypomanic highs that affect mood, energy, and behavior.

Treatment combines individual therapy, group programming, and — when clinically appropriate — psychiatric medication support, addressing the underlying drivers of depression rather than symptoms alone.

Unresolved trauma can profoundly affect both mental and physical well-being. We offer trauma-informed care for clients navigating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related conditions, which may develop following a life-threatening event, abuse, or prolonged stress.

Common symptoms include flashbacks or nightmares, emotional numbness or detachment, avoidance of trauma reminders, and heightened anxiety or hypervigilance.

Our trauma-informed approach incorporates somatic and expressive therapies alongside trauma-focused CBT, addressing both the psychological and physiological impact of trauma.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors performed to reduce distress. OCD can be distressing and time-consuming, interfering with relationships, work, and daily life.

Treatment draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients understand underlying thought patterns and build sustainable strategies for managing distress, with psychiatric medication support available when clinically indicated.

At Create Health & Wellness, our treatment approach includes:

• Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) Therapy

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Medication management when clinically indicated

We help clients understand the underlying thought patterns and gradually confront their fears in a structured, supportive setting.

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention, impulsivity, and executive functioning — often continuing into adulthood, even though it’s commonly associated with children.

We help clients address difficulty focusing or following through on tasks, impulsivity or disorganization, and emotional dysregulation, through individual therapy, skills-based group work, and psychiatric medication support when appropriate.

Personality disorders are enduring patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior that can create significant challenges in relationships, work, and self-image. We provide therapeutic support for clients navigating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and other personality-related presentations, including emotional instability, fear of abandonment, and impulsive behaviors.

Treatment centers on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), alongside long-term relational work to help clients manage emotions and build meaningful, stable connections with others.

For clients managing a diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or another psychotic disorder, CREATE can provide supportive care once symptoms are stabilized and medication-managed — helping clients build daily living skills, maintain treatment engagement, and work toward greater independence within a structured, supportive environment.

Our team coordinates closely with each client’s psychiatric provider to support medication continuity, and integrates psychoeducation and family involvement, when appropriate, to support long-term stability.

Not all emotional distress stems from a clinical diagnosis. We recognize that major life changes — divorce, job loss, illness, or the death of a loved one — can cause significant emotional turmoil.

We support clients navigating adjustment disorders, complicated grief, and other stress-related conditions, helping them process emotions, build resilience, and move through life transitions with greater clarity and stability.
