New anxiety center in Seattle focused on bridging the gap in health care system comes to First Hill
Clinical director Robert McFerren, LICSW, spoke with KING5 Seattle about Pathlight's new residential mood and anxiety treatment center in Seattle.
The mental health crisis during the pandemic has put strain on the healthcare system as more and more people need treatment.
Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center located in Swedish Medical Center – First Hill is set to open in just two weeks with the goal of bridging a gap in the mental health system.
"The hope is that the more of these middle level - kind of intensive - but in the middle levels of care that we can provide, the less pressure there is on the system as whole,” said Robert Mcferren, clinical director at Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center.
Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center treats people of all genders and ages, from adults to adolescents and children.
