Confronting Treatment-Resistant Depression: New Avenues of Hope

 PHC Mastor Mental Health is pleased to now offer Spravato(esketamine) nasal spray, an innovative treatment for individuals suffering from treatment-resistant depression. This breakthrough therapy is designed to help those who have not found relief with traditional antidepressants.

Depression is a pervasive and challenging condition, affecting more than 16 million adults in the United States each year. For many, standard treatments provide insufficient relief, leaving them struggling with persistent symptoms. Spravato, approved by the FDA, offers a new avenue of hope for these individuals, working rapidly to alleviate depressive symptoms when used in conjunction with an oral antidepressant.

PHC Mastor Mental Health is excited to offer this new option for those battling treatment-resistant depression, helping to improve their quality of life and overall well-being.

“Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD) is a pervasive problem in society today. Most of us have a personal relationship with someone who has been afflicted with depression. When we have the opportunity to help someone who has lost hope, we must do everything we can to reach as many of those people who are often times suffering in silence,” said Dr. Mastor, Psychiatrist at PHC Mastor Mental Health. “I am privileged to be able to offer Spravato (esketamine) in my office as an FDA approved treatment for TRD.”

Spravato has been shown to reduce symptoms of depression within hours to days, offering a fast-acting alternative for patients who have struggled with the lengthy response times of traditional medications. This treatment is administered under the supervision of a healthcare professional, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for all patients.
