Supporting Your Mental Health Journey with a New Name and New Location

We’re excited to share some important updates! Starting December 2024, the Marianne Geiger, M.D. Clinic of Psychiatric Care will be called the Magnolia Mental Health Clinic. We chose the name Magnolia because the magnolia flower symbolizes good health, stability, self-respect and hope—values we hold close in our mission to support your mental well-being.

What’s New:

  • New Name: We’re now Magnolia Mental Health Clinic, reflecting our commitment to growth, healing and a holistic approach to mental health.
  • New Location: Soon, you will be able to find us at 6377 Sebring Way, Loves Park, IL 61111—just 2.8 miles from our current location.
  • New Look: Our branding has been refreshed to reflect the values and dedication we bring to every interaction.
  • New Website: Before the end of the year, you will be able to find our new website at www.magnoliaMHC.com.

What’s Staying the Same:

  • Our Care Team: You’ll still see the same compassionate team, ready to support you at every step.
  • Contact Information: All phone numbers and appointment channels remain unchanged. We’re updating our email domain, but current emails will be forwarded so no messages will be missed.
  • Our Mission: Continuing to provide the warm, professional psychiatric care you trust.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. We’re here to make this transition as seamless as possible for you.

Anxiety is an uncomfortable feeling of fear, uneasiness, or concern about something that is going to happen or that a person thinks is going to happen. It can have both physical and emotional symptoms, which can be mild or severe. When anxiety is severe, a person may not be able to do daily activities as well as usual. When the situation passes, the symptoms usually go away.

Physical symptoms of anxiety include:

  • Trembling, twitching, or shaking.
  • Muscle tension, aches, or soreness.
  • Restlessness, fatigue, or insomnia.
  • Breathlessness or rapid heartbeat.
  • Sweating, or cold, clammy hands.

Emotional symptoms of anxiety include:

  • Feeling keyed up, on edge, and easily startled.
  • Excessive worrying or fearing that something bad is going to happen.
  • Reduced ability to concentrate.
  • Increased irritability or agitation.
  • Constant sadness. Feeling worried, anxious, and nervous is a normal part of everyday life. Everyone frets or feels anxious from time to time. However, when a person's anxiety becomes overwhelming and interferes with daily life it is not normal, the person may need to be evaluated.
