SOLUTIONS FOR A WIDE RANGE OF CONDITIONS

Clinical Depression

Depression is a complex mental health diagnosis with a wide variety of potential causes. No two people experience depression the same way. This is why treatment at The Living Room begins with a detailed assessment that will be used to custom-tailor your treatment plan. Most depression is manageable. With the right support, people with depression can often thrive and reclaim long-lost satisfaction in their lives.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

The symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) often aren’t as acute as other anxiety disorders, like panic attacks. Because of this, GAD is a condition that may go undiagnosed for years. People with anxiety frequently develop coping mechanisms. However, without anxiety treatment, GAD can unnecessarily compromise your quality of life. We offer practical, evidence-based anxiety treatment that helps people recapture joy and find peace again.

Bipolar Disorder I

Bipolar Disorder I is the more familiar type of what used to be called ‘manic depression’. Bipolar I is characterized by periods of mania (heightened mood and energy) and depressive episodes. Maintaining balance is essential to successfully managing this condition and avoiding episodes that lead to hospitalization. We treat Bipolar Disorder I with careful assessment, mental health therapy, and medication management.

Bipolar Disorder II

Bipolar Disorder II is another mental health condition that may be overlooked because it can be challenging to diagnose. While manic episodes are much less common, and both manic and depressive episodes are less severe, Bipolar Disorder II can still be quite disruptive. We treat Bipolar Disorder II with thorough evaluation, mental health counseling, and medication, where appropriate.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

PTSD is the result of one or more traumatic experiences. Living with untreated PTSD can be extremely difficult. When a person’s mind struggles to process trauma, it can manifest as anxiety, stress, flashbacks, and nightmares. Untreated, it may lead to addiction as sufferers self-medicate. Fortunately, PTSD can be successfully treated using a range of practical, evidence-based approaches, including EMDR therapy.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD is a deeply human experience that often arises from the mind’s attempt to find safety and certainty in an uncertain world. Individuals living with OCD may be visited by persistent, intrusive thoughts or fixations that feel distressing or unwanted. In response, they may engage in repetitive actions or rituals — such as counting or checking — as a way to soothe the inner turmoil these thoughts create.

At The Living Room at Princeton, we hold space for each person’s unique healing journey. We offer compassionate guidance through a blend of evidence-based practices like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and supportive approaches, such as medication management, when needed. Our intention is to help individuals reconnect with inner peace, develop trust in themselves, and find freedom from the cycles that once felt overwhelming.

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

Borderline Personality Disorder is often a reflection of deep emotional sensitivity and a longing for connection, safety, and belonging. Those who live with BPD may experience intense emotional waves, shifting self-identity, fears of abandonment, and challenges in relationships. These experiences can feel overwhelming, but they are also expressions of a tender heart seeking to be seen, loved, and understood.

At The Living Room at Princeton, we approach healing with reverence for each individual’s inner wisdom and resilience. We offer Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) individual therapy, and skills training grounded in mindfulness and compassionate awareness. When needed, we also incorporate supportive medications. Our intention is to help individuals learn to anchor themselves in emotional balance, deepen their self-compassion, and build loving, stable relationships — both with others and within themselves.

Panic Disorder

A person with Panic Disorder experiences recurring, unexpected panic attacks—sudden episodes of intense fear or discomfort—accompanied by physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, sweating, or dizziness, often causing persistent worry about future attacks. They may become isolated or afraid to leave their homes. We treat Panic Disorder using CBT and panic-focused psychotherapy. Medication management can also be an effective part of treatment.

Postpartum Depression

Postpartum Depression is a mood disorder a mother can experience after childbirth. The symptoms may include intense sadness, fatigue, anxiety, and difficulty bonding with their newborn infant. Mental health treatment for postpartum depression at The Living Room generally includes individual therapy, CBT, lifestyle changes, and support groups. Medications, such as SSRIs, can also be a helpful tool for managing postpartum depression.
