If your weekend ends with dread, anxiety, and that pit-in-your-stomach feeling about Monday… you’re not the only one. But if the "Sunday scaries" are hitting hard every week, it might be a sign of something deeper—like burnout or anxiety that’s been quietly building up.

You don’t have to power through it alone. We help people get to the root of that uneasy feeling and work toward real peace—not just survive the week.

You can be showing up to work, getting things done, and still feel overwhelmed, anxious, or totally drained. High-functioning anxiety and burnout are real—and they often go unnoticed because, on the outside, everything looks fine. But you deserve support, even if you’re still holding it all together. If your mental load is heavy lately, we’re here to help lighten it.

Animal-Assisted Therapy isn’t just about cuddles (though those help too). It creates a calm, safe space that helps people open up, reduce anxiety, and feel more grounded during treatment. At Brainerd Lakes Area Psychiatry, AAT is one more way we bring warmth and compassion into care that meets you where you are.

Half of all adolescents report feeling depressed, yet many parents are unaware.

This highlights the importance of open communication and checking in with your teen.

Here are some tips:
- Create a safe space for open conversations.
- Listen actively and without judgment.
- Pay attention to changes in mood or behavior.
- Encourage them to express their feelings.

Early intervention is crucial for managing depression. If you've tried traditional treatments without success, NeuroStar TMS offers a non-drug, non-invasive option. It’s FDA-cleared as an add-on therapy for adolescents aged 15 and older.

Learn how NeuroStar TMS could be part of your adolescent's or a loved one's treatment. Contact our practice today.
