Do I need a referral to access comprehensive SAD care at Radiant Recovery?

No. You can contact us directly to schedule an initial consultation. During that consultation, your clinician will complete an assessment and recommend the appropriate components of a comprehensive treatment plan based on your symptoms, history, and goals.

Can I access comprehensive SAD care if I am outside Minneapolis or Atlanta?

Yes. Telehealth extends our full scope of services, therapy, psychiatric evaluation, and medication management, to all residents of Minnesota and Georgia regardless of location.

What if I have tried SAD treatment before and it did not work?

Prior treatment limited to one modality, therapy alone, medication alone, or light therapy alone, may have been insufficient for your level of presentation. A comprehensive, integrated approach addresses the full set of factors driving seasonal depression and is often effective where single-modality treatment was not.

Radiant Recovery | Comprehensive Seasonal Depression Care
