Depression affects over 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. every year. It’s one of the most common—and most misunderstood—health conditions. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or hopeless, please know this: you are not weak, and you are not alone.
Depression is not “just in your head.” It’s a real medical condition rooted in changes in brain chemistry, genetics, and life experiences. Like any other illness, it deserves professional care and compassionate support.

Depression is more than just temporary sadness. It can impact every aspect of your life, from your personal relationships to your career. Symptoms include:
While these are only a few examples, if you find yourself experiencing symptoms of depression, it may be time to discuss your treatment options with a professional.
Patients have a variety of depression management services available. Precise Mind, with offices in Flowood, Vicksburg, Ridgeland, and Byram, is here to help you determine which option or set of options is best for you.
Talk therapy, also known as psychotherapy, can help you address issues you may be experiencing using a variety of evidence-based behavioral and cognitive techniques. You will learn to identify patterns in how you think and approach issues, analyzing how they affect your mood and quality of life. By exploring these concerns, you can better understand how your depression affects you and address the underlying issues that may exacerbate your symptoms.
One of the most common treatments for depression is antidepressant medication. Medications vary from person to person, meaning that our team will monitor your progress and adjust your medication as needed to help manage side effects, as well as assess how effective it is at treating your depressive symptoms. Medication management can help you access care that aligns with your needs.
When traditional antidepressants prove ineffective, it may be time to consider Spravato. This FDA-approved nasal spray is a form of esketamine that is administered under a doctor’s supervision to help achieve optimal results. Many patients feel the effects within hours or days, making it an effective treatment option for those struggling with treatment-resistant depression. Our staff will monitor you for side effects after you receive a dose before you return to your daily schedule.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for depression and other behavioral health conditions. It uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain that are underactive in people experiencing depression—especially when traditional treatments like medication haven’t been effective.
TMS is safe, medication-free, and non-sedating. It’s performed in-office, while you’re awake and alert, with no recovery time needed. Most patients resume normal activities immediately after each session.
A typical course of treatment includes short daily sessions (about 20 minutes) over several weeks. Many people begin to feel relief within the first few weeks of treatment, and for some, TMS offers long-lasting results.
Depending on your mental health goals and needs, we may recommend a combination of different treatments for optimal results.
