The mental health crisis during the pandemic has put strain on the healthcare system as more and more people need treatment.
Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center located in Swedish Medical Center – First Hill is set to open in just two weeks with the goal of bridging a gap in the mental health system.
"The hope is that the more of these middle level - kind of intensive - but in the middle levels of care that we can provide, the less pressure there is on the system as whole,” said Robert Mcferren, clinical director at Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center.
Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center treats people of all genders and ages, from adults to adolescents and children.
