Considered One of the Top Mental Health Centers

Our internationally renowned psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists provide an array of evidence-based psychological and psychiatric treatments for a wide variety of mental health conditions.

This unique, collaborative approach to treatment ensures that you receive the optimal mix of services, resulting in faster improvement, significant reduction in symptoms, and hope for a healthier future.

Dedicated to Improving Patient’s Lives

The Ross Center was established by visionary anxiety specialist Jerilyn Ross, whose own struggle with mental illness inspired her to create a world-class mental health center for others whose lives have been disrupted by anxiety and depression. After receiving treatment for her own anxiety and phobia, she cofounded the Anxiety Disorders Association of America (ADAA) in 1979.

We pride ourselves on keeping up with the latest research and providing the best practices to our patients and their families.

As anxiety and depression rates have skyrocketed, the need for short-term, effective treatment for mental health disorders has grown. We’ve responded to that need with expanding mental health centers in Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and New York City.

Professional Management Team

At The Ross Center, we have a dedicated management team to ensure that each patient receives the highest quality, most effective treatment and personalized, responsive service in all of our locations.
