Mental Health & Nervous System Conditions
Care Focused on the Nervous System, Stress Response, and Emotional Regulation
Avara Medical is your partner for treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction
Mental health and nervous system conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD/PTSI, and addiction are often influenced by how the nervous system responds to stress, trauma, and hormonal imbalance. At Avara Medical, we take a medical, physiology-based approach to care that focuses on regulating the nervous system and addressing contributing biological factors.
Conditions We Address
Anxiety
Persistent anxiety can be associated with chronic nervous system activation and stress response imbalance. Care focuses on calming overactive stress pathways and supporting physiologic regulation.
Depression
Depression may involve complex interactions between hormones, neurochemistry, and the nervous system. Treatment options are guided by evaluation and may support mood regulation and overall resilience.
PTSD / PTSI
Post-traumatic stress conditions are closely tied to autonomic nervous system dysregulation. Certain therapies may help reduce persistent fight-or-flight responses associated with trauma exposure.
Addiction
Substance use and addiction are often influenced by stress pathways, nervous system imbalance, and hormonal factors. Care may focus on supporting nervous system regulation as part of a broader recovery plan.
