You'll see a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist, and together you decide on therapy, medication or both.
What depression is
Depression is a medical condition. It usually shows as low mood or a loss of interest that lasts most days for two weeks or more, often with changes in sleep, appetite, energy and concentration. It affects work and relationships, and it is treatable.
How we assess it
A first consultation about your mood, sleep, work, relationships and history.
Short questionnaires, repeated during treatment so you can both see the change.
Checks for other explanations, such as thyroid problems, side effects of other medication, alcohol use or bipolar disorder.
In English, Bahasa Indonesia or both. Your first consultation is Rp 1,500,000 for our founding group of clients (regular fee Rp 2,000,000), and you'll know the cost of anything further before you begin.
How do I know whether it is depression or a difficult period?
That is what the first consultation is for. Your clinician tells you what they think is going on and why.
Do I need medication for depression?
Not always. For mild to moderate depression, therapy on its own is often recommended. Your clinician explains the options and you decide together.
How long does treatment take?
It depends on what brings you in. Your written plan gives the number of sessions and the cost before you start.
