Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders include general anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia, specific phobias, and separation anxiety disorder. Although each disorder is unique, people with elevated anxiety often experience similar symptoms. These symptoms include intense worry disproportionate to the stressor, ruminating thoughts, avoidance issues, and insomnia.
We work with you to decrease your anxiety while you learn coping skills for everyday life. It can be difficult to identify triggers, recognize irrational thoughts, or address avoidance behaviors consistently if your stress response is engaged. To this end, there are many medications that effectively manage anxiety that can be taken daily or just when you need it. We will work with you to find the medication that provides the comfort that you need.
