Who We See in Keene
Keene State College and Antioch University New England give the city a large student and academic community, and they’re a big part of who we see: undergraduates, graduate students in counseling and education programs, and faculty and staff. Many arrive with medications that need a New Hampshire prescriber to keep managing them.
We also see healthcare workers, manufacturing and insurance employees, and families in the small towns spread across Cheshire County. Many people in the region work near the Vermont or Massachusetts borders, so it’s worth noting that visits must take place while you’re in New Hampshire. Long, dark winters make seasonal depression and sleep problems common reasons people book.

Visits cover psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis and medication management for adults. Common reasons people book:
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- Depression, including postpartum depression
- PTSD and trauma and OCD
- Bipolar disorder and insomnia
