Anxiety Is Real — and Highly Treatable
Anxiety is the most common mental health condition in the US, affecting over 40 million adults. It is not a character flaw — it is a medical condition with proven, effective treatments.
At Centia Health, our Yale-trained, triple-board-certified psychiatrist specializes in the intersection of mental and physical health — seeing you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have an anxiety disorder, or just normal stress?
Stress is typically tied to a specific situation and resolves when it passes. Anxiety disorders involve persistent, excessive fear or worry that continues even without a clear threat — and significantly interferes with daily life. A psychiatric evaluation is the most reliable way to get clarity. We make the process easy and judgment-free.
Do I need medication for anxiety treatment?
Not necessarily. Many patients benefit significantly from therapy alone. When medication is appropriate, it is always discussed collaboratively and tailored to your individual situation. You will never be pressured into a treatment path that doesn’t feel right for you.
Can anxiety actually be treated long-term — or just managed?
Many people achieve full remission of their anxiety disorders with the right treatment. Others find that treatment dramatically reduces symptoms and restores quality of life. Either way, you don’t have to keep suffering — lasting relief is absolutely possible.
Do you offer telehealth appointments for anxiety?
Yes. All services — including psychiatric evaluation, psychotherapy, and medication management — are available via secure telehealth for patients in Pennsylvania and Kansas. We understand that anxiety can make leaving the house difficult, and we’ve made access as easy as possible.
What should I expect at my first appointment?
Your first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation lasting 60–90 minutes. We’ll talk about your concerns, history, current symptoms, and goals. This is a real conversation, not a checklist. At the end, you’ll have a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
