Depression

Depression is more than just being sad and you can’t just “fix it”. You lose sight of all the good things in life and it casts a shadow on everything you do and everywhere you go. It will follow you, haunting every aspect of your life - your work, school, and even your relationships.

And the worst part is depression will not go away on its own. If you suffer from depression you will need professional help to beat it.

The good news is that GIA has a comprehensive depression therapy program that will improve your condition and give you back the capacity to be motivated, to look forward to things, to fully enjoy your life and make the most of it, despite adversities that may come your way.

Are you are suffering from depression?

● A lass of interest in the things that were once important to you.
● Disconnecting from family or friends.
● A profound sense of sadness, even when there is no apparent cause.
● Feeling like you need to use drugs or alcohol to stop hurting.
● Thoughts of suicide or death.
● Fear of the future.
● Lack of motivation in your day to day life.

If you are suffering from one or more of the following symptoms,

contact GIA online or call 833.713.0797.

What Happens in Depression Therapy?

During depression therapy, you will learn about your condition while we are treating it. You will be given the tools to effectively manage your symptoms and challenges as you face the real world.

The goal is to help you gain stability as you learn to cope with depression.

● Full diagnostic assessment.
● Creation of an individualized treatment plan to address your specific needs.
● Customized Therapy.
● If needed, medication to correct the chemical imbalances at the root of the condition.

Different types of depression therapy* provided by GIA:

● Cognitive-behavioral therapy.
● Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy.
● Group therapy.
● Family therapy.
● Holistic therapy support.

*Depression therapies are also available via GIA’s telehealth programs.

Individuals suffering from depression often rely on alcohol and/or drugs to self- medicate, but in the midst of trying to feel better with drugs and alcohol, an addiction disorder is born.

For these cases, GIA provides dual diagnosis treatment, which allows us to treat both conditions simultaneously.

Our innovative depression therapy program is designed to empower you. You may be struggling to get through the day right now, but your future doesn’t have to be like that, and there is plenty to look forward to, even if today you don’t see it. Let us help you see all the potential in your life and to seize the days as they come.

Anxiety

Anxiety prevents you from living the moment and enjoying the beauty of being here now. It can also prevent you from sleeping at night, disturb your work, and develop into other disorders such as depression and addiction.

GIA Miami designs therapies specially focused on teaching you how to reduce the stress in your life and increase your peace of mind. We will help you learn to face life with serenity and pleasure rather than anxiety and stress.

If you or someone you care about is experiencing anxiety, you can start healing today at GIA Miami.

● Feeling worried about things you logically know do not merit worry.
● Withdrawing from people you care about or things that you once enjoyed because of the anxiety these kinds of social interaction produce.

● Using drugs or alcohol to deal with the symptoms you feel.

If you are suffering from one or more of the following symptoms,

contact GIA online or call 833.713.0797 for immediate help.

Post COVID-19

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world as we knew it and caused a myriad of harmful, long-term effects in thousands of people, severely affecting their well-being and daily functioning. These effects can persist long after the acute infection has subsided.

When we think of the impacts of COVID-19, we tend to think of the physical symptoms of the disease. However, the mental and psychological symptoms can be just as overwhelming: the anxiety that comes with lost employment, the depression following the illness or loss of a loved one, the negative emotional impacts of weeks of isolation, and the general uncertainty about our futures.

The Post-Pandemic Program at GIA Miami

Researchers are only just beginning to explore the adverse effects on the brain and mental wellness that have come with this pandemic, and we are proud to say that GIA’s team is at the forefront of this research. We have discovered that as this public health crisis has continued, many people have reported severe effects on their mental abilities, such as:

● Decreased concentration and mental focus.
● Difficulty maintaining attention.
● Memory impairment.
● Increased fatigue.
● Insomnia.
● Anxiety.
● Panic attacks.
● Depression.
● Anhedonia and low motivation.
● Increased stress, excessive worrying, and fear.
● Agitation, restlessness, and irritability.

Additionally, as a result of the above, people are increasingly turning to drugs and alcohol.

If you are experiencing any of the above, the COVID-19 recovery program at GIA is here to offer guidance, support, and treatment.

Contact GIA online or call 833.713.0797.

What Happens in Post-Pandemic Treatment?

To cope with the COVID-19 psychological symptoms, we offer a full complement of psychotherapeutic approaches:

● Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
The most commonly used psychotherapeutic approach, cognitive-behavioral therapy is an evidence-based approach that can help you change your thoughts and behavior patterns while helping you build healthy coping skills.
● Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
DBT uses some principles that are similar to those of CBT but provides a more in-depth focus on regulating your emotions, working through adversity and difficult moments, and overall mindfulness.
● Group therapy sessions
Group therapy at GIA lets you find perspective in the presence of peers and build a network of support.
● Family therapy
Rebuild relationships with family members through therapist-led sessions.
● Addiction-specific therapy
The addiction specialists at GIA address addiction to different substances or activities in different ways. We currently have addiction-specific treatment plans that address cocaine addiction, opiate addiction, alcohol addiction, nicotine addiction, and gambling addiction, among others.
● Mood and anxiety disorder treatment
These treatment modalities are designed to address depression, anxiety, PTSD, and a host of other mood and anxiety disorders.
● Aftercare
We support clients even after they leave our mental wellness programs by planning for the future and connecting them to our extensive alumni network.

Because we offer such a broad range of therapeutic approaches in the COVID-19 recovery program, we tailor programs to the specific needs of each patient. And all of the above are available remotely through our comprehensive telehealth program. This way, we can ensure that you get the help you need.

Our mission is to work with you to create a science-based, personalized program to help you achieve your

Mental Performance

“The mind is just like a muscle—the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets and the more it can expand.” Idowu Koyenikan, AUTHOR.

There are over 1.000 quotes about the unlimited power of your mind, but only one Mental Performance training program that can boost your brain like a HIIT session boosts your cardio: the GIA Miami “Mental Performance Package”.

Why is GIA’s Mental Performance Package more effective than other programs?

1. It analyzes each individual from a personalized perspective with extensive brain imaging, blood work and cognitive testing.
2. Gives the patient a comprehensive plan to maximize their brain function with a personalized treatment plan, combined with GIA’s vast knowledge about Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

TMS is being used by professional athletes and top executives exposed to high pressure levels and exceptionally demanding goals, to guarantee they are 100% focused and on top of their game.

What is TMS and how does it work to stimulate your brain?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is the latest treatment in improving cognitive and psychological processes. This technique has been used for decades with proven results in treating mood and behavioral disorders, as well as addictions, and has now been successfully adapted to maximize mental performance.

TMS is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation. A magnetic coil is placed on the patient’s scalp, creating a magnetic field. The coil is then targeted to stimulate groups of cells in the frontal areas of the brain. The small electromagnetic pulses are painless, the procedure itself is non-invasive, and stimulation sessions usually last no more than 15 minutes.

Importantly, TMS can generally be administered without patients having to reduce or interrupt the medications that they are taking.

TMS benefits on your mental performance:

● Increase of cortical excitability producing cognitive performance enhancement.
● Improvement in speed and accuracy in a variety of tasks involving perceptual, motor, and executive processing.
● Faster learning.
● Decrease in fatigue.
● Reduces insomnia and sleeping difficulties: studies show that there is a corresponding improvement in sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep onset latency, and wake times.

Importantly, TMS can generally be administered without patients having to reduce or interrupt the medications that they are taking.

PTSD

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that affects approximately 4% of U.S adults, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. However, most people suffering from PTSD avoid seeking medical treatment, and choose to ignore the issue, self-medicate or develop addictive behaviors instead. None of those choices will provide an effective and long-term solution for this condition.

GIA Miami offers a PTSD therapy that is comprehensive, innovative, and designed to provide the best possible outcome.

Are you suffering from PTSD?

PTSD is a type of mental health disorder, related with traumatic memories from past experiences, that the brain has trouble processing.

As a defense mechanism, the brain blocks conscious access to the memories of a terrifying event, however, they may rise as flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, provoked by stimuli that trigger the memory (a smell, a sound, a place, a person…).

In some cases people are unable to revisit the memories and understand what is happening, while in other cases, they may experience uncontrollable thoughts about the event.

This type of trauma can occur for many reasons:

● The death of a loved one.
● Witnessing or experiencing domestic violence.
● Sexual abuse.
● Emotional abuse.
● Wartime experiences.

What Can You Expect in PTSD Therapy?

PTSD therapy will set you free from reliving a traumatic experience in any way, breaking the connection between the stimuli and the experience, and managing the negative impact those memories have on your life and actions.

At GIA Miami, therapy is always tailored to each individual’s circumstance, thus it is never the same.

Your PTSD therapy may include evidence-based treatments such as:

● Cognitive-behavioral therapy.
● Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy .
● EMDR therapy.
● Dialectical behavior therapy.
● Individual counseling.

During your treatment, you will work closely with your counselor to talk about your condition. In some cases, patients do not remember the specific event that has caused their condition. In others, patients know exactly what happened but haven’t dealt with it. At GIA we also provide PTSD therapy combined with any addiction treatments you may need.

Break free from PTSD at GIA Miami

PTSD creates significant changes in your brain chemistry that affect your life negatively, preventing you from fully enjoying it. But with proper care, this condition can be treated and reversed: GIA Miami’s PTSD therapy will help you heal.

If you or someone you know are suffering from PTSD call 833.713.0797 today.
