Anxiety Treatment in Weymouth, MA
Anxiety can show up as racing thoughts, a pounding heart, trouble sleeping or simply avoiding things you used to do. Psychiatric anxiety treatment combines careful diagnosis with evidence-based options to help you feel in control again.
Psych Boston provides anxiety treatment for patients in Weymouth, Massachusetts, from our office in Lexington and through secure telehealth. Weymouth families often choose telehealth for routine follow-ups to avoid the drive into the Route 128 corridor.
Anxiety treatment for Weymouth patients: who it helps
People from Weymouth come to us for anxiety treatment for many reasons, including:
- Generalized anxiety disorder — constant, hard-to-control worry
- Panic disorder and panic attacks
- Social anxiety and performance anxiety
- Specific phobias and health anxiety
- Anxiety alongside depression, ADHD or insomnia
- Children and teens with school-related or separation anxiety
What to expect
- Assessment: We clarify the type of anxiety, triggers, physical symptoms and any medical factors such as thyroid problems, caffeine or medications.
- Treatment plan: Plans often combine therapy approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) — through a referral if needed — with medication when appropriate.
- Medication options: When medication is used, clinicians typically start with long-term options such as SSRIs or SNRIs and use short-term medications cautiously.
- Follow-up: Regular check-ins track progress, side effects and skills you are building, adjusting the plan as needed.

Frequently asked questions about anxiety treatment in Weymouth
Do you have an office in Weymouth?
Our office is in Lexington at 35 Bedford Street. Weymouth patients are usually about 40 minutes from our Lexington office via Route 3 and I-93 north to Route 128/I-95. Many Weymouth patients also use secure telehealth, which is available to patients located in Massachusetts at the time of the visit when clinically appropriate.
Is anxiety treated with medication or therapy?
Often both. Therapy such as CBT is highly effective, and medication can help when symptoms are moderate to severe or therapy alone is not enough. Your clinician will discuss what fits you.
How quickly does anxiety treatment work?
Many people notice improvement within several weeks, though medications like SSRIs can take 4–8 weeks for full effect.
Do you treat panic attacks?
Yes. Panic disorder is very treatable with a combination of skills-based therapy and, when appropriate, medication.
Can I get anxiety treatment by telehealth from Weymouth?
In many cases, yes. Weymouth residents can often complete visits by secure video from home or work in Massachusetts. Your clinician may recommend an in-office visit in Lexington when that would be more helpful.
Is this an emergency service?
No. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or call 911, or go to the nearest emergency department.
