About this condition

How anxiety & excessive worry is evaluated and treated

Assessment and treatment planning for persistent anxiety, restlessness, and worry that is hard to control.

Care for Tamarac patients begins with a full psychiatric evaluation: current symptoms and how long they have lasted, psychiatric and medical history, medications and supplements, sleep, substance use, family history, and the daily stressors specific to work, school, and family life. From there we discuss a diagnosis in plain language and build a treatment plan together.

When medication is appropriate, options, expected benefits, side effects, and monitoring are reviewed at each visit. When helpful, care is coordinated with therapy, primary care, or other specialists, and laboratory or psychological testing may be recommended.

Getting to care from Tamarac

Tamarac patients usually take Commercial Boulevard to the Turnpike, close to an hour southbound. For older adults in Tamarac's many 55-plus communities, a companion driver or a telehealth visit is often the more practical choice.

Hybrid care is common, with in-person visits scheduled when a family member can drive and telehealth used for everything in between. For anxiety and excessive worry specifically, that means symptom review and medication monitoring stay on schedule without Tamarac patients rearranging a whole workday. Appointments are available in English and Spanish, and records can be shared with your primary care physician or therapist in Tamarac on request.
