Depression rates are greater in the military than in the general population, especially among family members. However, there is assistance available to lessen symptoms and enhance general wellbeing. It is a known fact that stigma within the military and among military families prevents some people from getting the assistance they need. If a military member seeks assistance for depression, they could be concerned about how their peers will see them or that they won’t be promoted.

"I greatly enjoy what I am learning in CBT group and I really like that Dr. Park does therapy along with psychiatry. It makes so much sense to me and fully encompasses my needs much more than writing me a script and sending me on my way. Dr. Park uses great examples and humor in group. Thanks"
