Depression & Mood
From mild seasonal depression to severe, treatment-resistant depression & bipolar disorder, Geode’s providers deliver the expert help you need to get better.
Anxiety & Panic
Anxiety is often a normal response to uncertainty, but if it ever becomes extreme or long lasting, getting the right treatment can be a life-changing relief.
Behavior & ADHD
Conditions like ADHD that negatively impact behavior at home, school, or work can be a source of great distress. Often a mix of therapy and medication can help people regain control.
Dealing With Trauma
Trauma disorders may be caused by an upsetting experience, such as a death, violence, or serious injury. Get help overcoming symptoms, along with the original trauma.
Disordered Eating
Disordered eating can affect people of all ages, genders, and body types, and can take many forms. Long-term recovery starts with a plan personalized to your unique situation.

Many psychologists are doctors, but not medical doctors. Psychologists treat mental health conditions using talk and other complementary therapies. Psychiatrists are medical doctors (MDs). Psychiatrists can provide talk and other complementary therapies but primarily treat mental health conditions with medications.
A psychiatrist can prescribe medication and provide medication management for mental health conditions, which a therapist cannot. Additionally, because psychiatrists are medical doctors, they have more extensive training in medical issues that may be related to mental health concerns. However, therapists can provide a wide range of evidence-based talk therapies to help individuals manage their mental health conditions and may work collaboratively with psychiatrists to provide comprehensive care.
