Anyone can feel sad or be worried, but when it impacts one’s life, it needs to be addressed. Depression and anxiety are the most common behavioral health issues and occur in up to 25% of the general population. Seeking help often results in the patient working closely with a therapist to address the root of the issues. Medication is occasionally used, but at Alium, it is not the first choice.
