Take the PHQ-9 Screening

If you’ve been feeling stuck, exhausted, or just not yourself, it can be hard to tell if what you’re experiencing is clinical depression or a rough patch.

That’s where the PHQ-9 screening comes in.

This quick, research backed questionnaire can give you a clearer picture of your mental health and help you understand what’s going on. And the best part? You’ll get instant feedback on your results, plus personalized next steps.

Step 1: Take the PHQ-9 screening

The PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9) is a standard tool used by doctors, therapists, and psychiatrists to measure the severity of depression symptoms. It’s fast, simple, and clinically proven to help determine whether you’re dealing with:

  • Mild depression (feeling low, but still functioning)
  • Moderate depression (struggling with daily life)
  • Severe depression (when symptoms are deeply affecting your ability to function)
Take the test

Step 2: What your score means

Once you’ve answered the questions, you’ll get an instant breakdown of your score and what it means for your mental health.

  • Score 0-4: No or minimal depression (great news!)
  • Score 5-9: Mild depression (some low moods, but still managing)
  • Score 10-14: Moderate depression (it might be time to seek help)
  • Score 15-19: Moderately severe depression (symptoms are interfering with life)
  • Score 20-27: Severe depression (you need support now)

No matter your score, there are steps you can take to feel better.

Step 3: Book a consult

If your score suggests that you may be dealing with moderate, severe, or treatment-resistant depression, don’t wait until things get worse. Depression is treatable, and you deserve to feel better.

At Integrated, we specialize in helping people who feel stuck, exhausted, and out of options. Whether that means adjusting medications, starting TMS therapy, or creating a personalized treatment plan, we’re here to support you.
