Types of Anxiety Disorders We Treat
Each anxiety disorder requires a unique treatment approach. Our psychiatrists are experienced in diagnosing and treating all types.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Persistent, excessive worry about various aspects of daily life - work, health, family, finances - that's difficult to control and occurs more days than not for at least 6 months.
Common Symptoms:
Panic Disorder
Recurring, unexpected panic attacks - sudden surges of intense fear that peak within minutes, causing overwhelming physical symptoms and fear of having more attacks.
Common Symptoms:
Social Anxiety Disorder
Intense fear of social situations where you might be judged, embarrassed, or humiliated. This goes beyond normal shyness and significantly impacts work, school, and relationships.
Common Symptoms:
Phobias
Intense, irrational fear of specific objects, situations, or activities that poses little actual danger but provokes anxiety and avoidance behavior.
Common Symptoms:
Our Anxiety Treatment Approach
We use evidence-based treatments tailored to your specific anxiety disorder and individual needs.
Medication Management
Our psychiatrists prescribe and monitor anti-anxiety medications including SSRIs, SNRIs, and other targeted treatments. We carefully adjust dosages to maximize effectiveness while minimizing side effects.
- SSRIs (Lexapro, Zoloft, Prozac)
- SNRIs (Effexor, Cymbalta)
- Non-benzodiazepine anti-anxiety medications
- Beta-blockers for performance anxiety
CBT Coordination
We coordinate with therapists trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the gold standard for anxiety treatment. CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and develop coping skills.
- Identify anxious thought patterns
- Challenge irrational beliefs
- Develop coping strategies
- Gradual exposure to fears
Comprehensive Evaluation
Accurate diagnosis is crucial. We conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations to identify the specific type of anxiety disorder and any co-occurring conditions like depression or ADHD.
- Detailed symptom assessment
- Medical history review
- Rule out physical causes
- Identify co-occurring conditions
