Compassionate mental health care in Macon
Since 1985, The Psychiatric Center has provided expert, personalized psychiatric care for the people of Macon and surrounding communities. Led by Dr. Sarah Graff, MD.
Transforming the standard of psychiatric care, one life at a time
At TPC we care for the whole person — not just the diagnosis. For more than four decades, we’ve been a trusted resource for our community, combining clinical expertise with genuine compassion to help adults navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and more.
Our services
Your path to mental wellness is unique. From your first visit, our team takes the time to understand your concerns and goals — then builds a treatment plan designed specifically for you.
Psychiatric Evaluations
Comprehensive assessments for adults
Every evaluation starts with listening. We take a thorough, individualized approach to understanding your history, symptoms, and goals — so your care plan actually fits your life.
Medication Management
Ongoing support and monitoring
Medication isn’t one-size-fits-all. We work closely with you to find the right approach, monitor your response, and adjust as needed — always with your overall well-being in mind.
Therapeutic Counseling
Individual, couples, and family therapy
Our therapists work with you to understand life’s challenges and build real coping strategies — in a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported.

Conditions we treat
We provide compassionate, evidence-based care for a wide range of mental health conditions.
Anxiety
More than everyday stress — a persistent, often disproportionate sense of fear that responds well to the right care.
ADHD
Not laziness — a neurological condition that makes focus, organization, and follow-through genuinely harder to manage.
Bipolar Disorder
More than mood swings — a serious, highly treatable condition. The right care makes lasting stability possible.
Depression
Not a weakness or something to push through — a medical condition, and one of the most treatable there is.
Executive Dysfunction
Knowing what to do and not being able to start is exhausting — and real, with causes that respond to treatment.
Grief & Complicated Bereavement
A human response to loss. When grief gets stuck and won’t loosen its grip, compassionate care can help you find footing.
