Penn Psychiatric Center Information

Since 1993, Penn Psychiatric Center has been providing individuals and families with onsite psychiatric, mental health and behavioral health services. Founded under the direction of Dr. Samir Farag, medical director and primary adult psychiatrist, the center has grown to include additional adult psychiatrists, a pediatric psychiatrist, a nursing staff and a staff of psychotherapists who see patients in Phoenixville and Collegeville. The mission of Penn Psychiatric Center is to help individuals with mental illness recover through the highest quality services offered in the most effective and appropriate manner. To achieve this aim we offer an array of outpatient services that are individualized, strength based, and recovery-oriented. Recovery is facilitated in an environment that respects the individual's rights and choices, offers hope, and empowers everyone to achieve their potential. Penn Psychiatric Center is committed to treating and serving the psychiatric and mental health needs of the community. In 2002 NAMI Pennsylvania (The National Alliance for Mental Illness) awarded Penn Psychiatric Center the “Service Organization of the Year Award.”
