Ruling out medical causes
Thyroid problems, high caffeine intake, some medications and other medical issues can cause anxiety-like symptoms, so your psychiatrist asks about physical health and may suggest lab tests.

Anxiety care for Londonderry residents
For professionals and shift workers at airport-area, logistics and manufacturing employers, anxiety often shows up as trouble switching off after work, tension before big days, or poor sleep. Telehealth makes it easier to start care when leaving home feels hard.
Living in Londonderry
Londonderry combines family neighborhoods and apple orchards with a large employment area around the airport. Shift patterns and early starts are common, so we pay close attention to sleep and timing when planning care. The office in Salem is an easy run down I-93 when a face-to-face visit is better.
A careful approach to sedatives
Benzodiazepines can calm acute anxiety but carry risks of dependence and are generally not a good long-term plan. If you already take one, we review it with you rather than stopping it suddenly.
Getting care from Londonderry
Our office at 215 South Broadway in Salem is about 20 minutes south on I-93 from Londonderry, so in-person visits are practical. Many Londonderry patients come in for the first appointment and use secure video for follow-ups.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral?
Most patients self-refer.
How long before I feel better?
Many people notice change within 4 to 8 weeks of starting treatment.
Are anxiety medications addictive?
First-line options such as SSRIs are not habit-forming. Some sedatives can be, so we use them cautiously.
