Life and Care in Florence

Florence is the medical hub of the Pee Dee: health care and social assistance is Florence County's largest employment sector, with nearly 17,000 jobs. Health care workers face high rates of burnout, and video visits can fit around demanding shifts.

Florence is home to Francis Marion University and Florence-Darlington Technical College. Anxiety is common among college students, and video visits fit around class and work schedules.

Florence's economy centers on health care and automotive and retail distribution.

Florence County is federally designated as a mental health professional shortage area, meaning there are too few mental health professionals for the people who live there. Telehealth lets Florence residents see a provider without waiting for a local opening.

How Anxiety Treatment Works

Anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, panic disorder and social anxiety, are among the most common mental health conditions, and among the most treatable. Panic can feel like a heart attack; new or unexplained chest pain should always be checked, so call 911 if you are unsure.

Your first visit is a full evaluation by secure video. Your provider asks about your symptoms, sleep, health and stresses, uses standard questionnaires such as the GAD-7, and checks for medical causes before building a plan with you.

Treatment can include cognitive behavioral therapy, which works as well as medication for many anxiety disorders, medication when clinically appropriate, or both, with follow-up to track how you are doing.

We accept Medicare, most major commercial plans, and all South Carolina Medicaid managed care plans except Select Health (First Choice). New patients are often able to be scheduled within a week of requesting an appointment.
