Treatment-resistant depression is a form of major depression that doesn’t respond adequately to at least two different antidepressant medications tried for an adequate duration and dosage. This condition affects approximately 30% of individuals with major depressive disorder, leaving many feeling hopeless about their recovery prospects.
Women with treatment-resistant depression may experience:
At Monima Wellness, our comprehensive neuropsychological testing helps identify the specific factors contributing to treatment resistance, ensuring we create the most effective personalized treatment plan for your recovery journey.
Through our partnerships with trusted providers, Monima Wellness seamlessly integrates ketamine therapy in San Diego into our comprehensive treatment model. This collaboration allows us to maintain our clinical expertise in women’s mental health while providing access to innovative, proven treatments while enrolled in our outpatient programs.
One of the most promising advances in treating treatment-resistant depression is ketamine therapy. Unlike traditional antidepressants that target serotonin, ketamine works on the brain’s glutamate system, offering rapid relief for many who haven’t found success with conventional treatments.

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) at Monima is individualized for women and offers part-time, intentional, and comprehensive treatment for challenges related to mental health and trauma recovery.
IOP is designed specifically for women ready for level of support above traditional once-per-week therapy, or as a stepping stone between a full-time recovery program — such as PHP or residential treatment — and returning to their daily routines full-time.
The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Monima provides treatment for women seeking a comprehensive and full-time mental health treatment program that fosters lasting mental, physical, and spiritual wellness.
PHP is the highest level of care available at Monima, intentionally designed for women that are ready for a step above basic therapy, psychiatric support, or IOP. Most clients take a leave of absence from work, school, or their daily routines to fully immerse themselves in healing.
Monima Wellness offers an outpatient program (OP) to provide continued mental health support while integrating into their daily lives. This program is ideal for those transitioning from more intensive levels of care, such as PHP or intensive outpatient treatment. Sometimes referred to as aftercare, the OP emphasizes maintaining and building upon the progress achieved in previous phases, allowing clients to begin balancing their recovery with work, education, or family responsibilities.

Our specialized approach combines the latest advances in ketamine therapy with proven psychotherapy and holistic healing modalities in a supportive, women-centered environment.
