How Is Mental Health Treated?
If you often feel sad or hopeless, have changes in your eating habits or trouble sleeping, exhibit anger or irritability, or feel overwhelmed by unwanted feelings or thoughts, you might be suffering from anxiety or depression. A mental health condition may stem from a number of causes, from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and abuse to medical issues or chemical imbalances. During a private consultation, Dr. Babe will speak with you to understand how you are feeling and discuss circumstances that may be triggering your anxiety or depression. She can then provide therapeutic options, which may include lifestyle changes, behavior modification, or prescription medications.

- Withdrawing from friends, family, and coworkers

Laura E. Babe, MD, PLC Reviews
I Feel So Lucky - Dr. Babe has consistently provided me with excellent care, combined with good humor, understanding, and intelligence. I congratulate myself often that I had the good sense--and that she had the availability--to join her practice.
Dr. Babe is always available addresses my needs. - Dr. Babe took the time to listen to my issues and addressed my concerns.
Dr. Babe and her staff are my heroes! - I recently went on an extended vacation to Vietnam. Dr. Babe worked with me for several months getting me ready for a very active vacation. I’m talking hundreds of stairs and many hills to climb. She worked with me with changing my blood pressure medications to make it easier to exercise and arranged therapy for both my back and shoulder. My trip was a tremendous success and I was able to do everything I wanted.
Dr. Babe takes all the time I need to talk to her. She listens and she asks all the right questions. She does not rush me and is kind and thoughtful. She is the best. I highly recommend her. She has a wonderful staff also.
