Anxiety care for Pelham residents
For commuters to Lowell, Nashua and Boston, 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.

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.
Living in Pelham
Pelham keeps a small-town feel between Salem, Hudson and the Massachusetts line. Many residents work in Lowell or Nashua, so it helps that our Salem office is about 15 minutes away and that video visits can be done from home in New Hampshire.
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.
Getting care from Pelham
Our office at 215 South Broadway in Salem is about 15 minutes from Pelham, so in-person visits are practical. Many Pelham patients come in for the first appointment and use secure video for follow-ups.
