Behavioral Health

Behavioral health disorders are real and disabling medical illnesses for which effective treatments are available. Some behavioral health issues affect women disproportionately, such as depression, panic disorders and eating disorders.

Depression

In the United States, approximately 7 million women suffer from depression. Your mental health is as important as your physical health. If you suffer from depression, you should know that you are not alone and, like other illnesses, it can be treated successfully.
