FAQ

How do I know if my teen is depressed versus just going through a rough patch?

Persistent changes lasting more than a couple of weeks, in mood, sleep, appetite, energy, or interest in previously enjoyed activities, are worth a professional evaluation.

Do you prescribe medication for depression?

No, Aspire does not prescribe medication. Our team can discuss coordination with an outside prescriber if that becomes part of your teen’s care plan.

How fast can we be seen?

Aspire has no waitlist. Most families are seen within the week they call.

Is telehealth an option?

In select cases, yes, for teens and adults in New Jersey and New York. Our team can help you decide whether in-person or telehealth fits your situation best.
