The Core of Our Care
When other therapies haven't produced success, our Intensive Outpatient Program is the personalized path to relief from depression, anxiety, PTSD and mood disorders.
We’re Local and We Care. The Anxiety Center provides unparalleled care and support for those grappling with the complexities of mental health in the Cincinnati, Dayton and Indianapolis area.
You’re Not Alone. We’re Here With You. Whatever It Takes.
Real people.
Real stories.
From the patients who came to us when nothing else had worked.
"TMS was the piece I was missing. The fact that they coordinate it directly with therapy — not as an add-on — made it actually work."
"TAC figured out it was PTSD. The EMDR worked in a way that years of talk therapy never did. They measured my progress every week and adjusted when something was not moving."
"My daughter had not been to school in four months. The in-vivo exposures and coordination with her school counselor — that is what got her back."
"I had been in and out of treatment for six years. When I came to TAC someone actually looked at my whole picture and said — this is OCD, not just anxiety, and here is what we are going to do about it. Twelve weeks later I was back at work."

Frequently Asked Questions
Our IOP program is a specialized, comprehensive treatment designed for people who are really struggling with things like obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), complex anxiety, depression, self-harm, and trauma symptoms to the point where it's disrupting their daily life. We get that you might have tried other approaches, and our program is set up to be a more intensive approach to help you get back on track.
We know you have a life, so our programs are designed to be flexible. You can schedule your IOP around your daily routine. The intensity ranges from 9 to 15 hours per week, depending on what you need, and we offer various times throughout the day.
Right now, we have programs for adolescents (ages 13-17) and adults (18+). We will be offering a program for children (ages 9-12) soon!
