Depression Treatment

Compassionate, Personalized Care at Inner Journey Healthcare

Depression is real—and you don’t have to face it alone.

At Inner Journey Healthcare in Missoula, we offer evidence-based, compassionate treatment for depression that goes beyond symptom management. Whether you’re experiencing depression, persistent sadness, or treatment-resistant depression, our team works with you to create a care plan that fits your life, goals, and values.

Our Approach to Treating Depression

We believe healing is not one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer a range of options to meet you where you are:

Psychotherapy

Our licensed therapists provide a warm, nonjudgmental space for healing. We offer:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • CBT-I for sleep disturbances

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

  • Trauma-Informed Therapy

  • EMDR and other modalities

Whether you're struggling with loss, burnout, relationship challenges, or chronic depression, we tailor therapy to support your specific needs.

Ketamine-Based Treatments

For clients with depression or treatment-resistant depression, we offer:

  • SPRAVATO® (esketamine): An FDA-approved nasal spray covered by many insurances

  • Intramuscular (IM) Ketamine: A powerful, customizable option administered in a safe, supportive setting

Both options include preparation and integration support with our trained clinicians. These therapies may help reduce symptoms when other treatments haven’t worked.

Medical Consulting

Our integrative care includes consults with Dr. Joey Banks, MD, who helps clients navigate complex health concerns related to depression—like fatigue, sleep issues, hormones, or medication side effects. Dr. Banks can collaborate with your existing providers or serve as a bridge between mental and physical healthcare.
