Autism support for Goffstown families
Families with children at Goffstown High School and Mountain View Middle School often ask us for help with anxiety, focus, sleep or school planning. A first visit by video from home can be easier for autistic children and adults who find new places tiring.

A comfortable visit
Tell us what helps: breaks, dimmer lights, a visual schedule or a first visit by video. We allow extra time for autism-related appointments.
Care for the Goffstown community
Goffstown has a village feel, with Saint Anselm College on one side of town and quiet rural roads on the other. Families often look for help with teen anxiety and attention, and adults commuting to Manchester appreciate video follow-ups that do not add another drive.
What a psychiatrist adds
Many autistic people already have therapists, teachers or support staff. A psychiatrist identifies co-occurring conditions, weighs whether medication could help specific symptoms, and checks for medical issues behind changes in behavior or sleep.
Getting care from Goffstown
From Goffstown, our Salem office is about 45 to 50 minutes by car. Many Goffstown patients choose secure video for most visits and come to Salem when an in-person appointment adds something.
