Treatment for Adults

Sophisticated psychological and psychiatric treatment for adults provides relief from suffering.

Customized Treatment Plans

Responsive Treatment that Works

Adults come to The Ross Center with a wide range of mental health concerns. We are able to customize a treatment plan for you whether you need a short-term course of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), medication for a mood disorder, or intensive treatment for a disorder that’s impacted your ability to live your life. 

You’ll work with one of our world-renowned psychiatrists or psychologists (and sometimes both), who will custom-tailor a treatment plan using evidence-based techniques that will help you to feel better. Fortunately, treatment for anxiety and depression has been shown to respond to short term treatment methods such as CBT, so you should be able to start seeing improvements in a short period of time. If medication is indicated, your psychiatrist will carefully explain all aspects of medication and determine whether it should be used alone or in combination with psychotherapy.

We Can Help

You can successfully overcome your symptoms with the compassionate guidance and expertise of our dedicated psychiatrists and therapists, who bring both outstanding clinical and interpersonal skills to your treatment. Many patients come to us after seeing other practitioners, and are amazed at the progress they can make with the treatment approach of The Ross Center clinicians.

Improving Relationships

Therapy for Couples

Our trained couples therapists offer support for couples who are struggling with connection, intimacy, communication, and conflict. We discuss challenges that can range from infidelity to infertility, and help couples learn to  improve communication, develop stronger attachments, and resolve conflicts in a healthy way. Couples therapy can be a powerful tool to navigate these difficulties and build a more fulfilling connection.

A Collaborative Approach

Family Support

It is often helpful to have close friends or family members involved in the evaluation and/or treatment process. This depends on your individual circumstances and personal desires. Spouses and family members can benefit from a greater understanding of what you’re experiencing, and clinicians can provide guidance and strategies for how they can best support you in your treatment. A collaborative approach puts everyone on the same page and can improve the speed and success of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions: Group Therapy & Skills Programs

What’s the advantage of a group over individual therapy?

Groups provide real-time practice, peer support, and lower cost per session while still teaching evidence-based skills.

How big are the groups?

Most run with 6–10 participants to ensure enough interaction without feeling overwhelming.

Will I have to share personal details?

You control what you disclose. Early sessions focus on learning skills; deeper sharing is always voluntary.

Can I attend a group if I’m already in individual therapy elsewhere?

Yes. With your permission, Ross Center clinicians can coordinate with your outside therapist to keep goals aligned.
