Therapy for Anxiety
Anxiety disorders — including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, specific phobias, and health anxiety — are among the most common mental health conditions. They are also among the most treatable. Our licensed therapists provide evidence-based therapy that addresses both the cognitive patterns (worry, catastrophizing) and behavioral patterns (avoidance) that maintain anxiety, helping you build genuine confidence and calm in your daily life.
Signs Therapy May Help Your Anxiety
You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. If you recognize these patterns, it may be time to connect with a specialist.
- Excessive worry about multiple areas of life that is difficult to control
- Physical symptoms: racing heart, shortness of breath, muscle tension
- Panic attacks — sudden intense episodes of fear
- Social anxiety and fear of judgment or embarrassment
- Avoidance of situations, places, or activities that trigger fear
- Anxiety that interferes with work, relationships, or daily activities
Our Approach
How We Treat Anxiety
We use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as the first-line approach for anxiety, targeting the cognitive distortions (threat overestimation, intolerance of uncertainty) and behavioral avoidance that perpetuate anxiety. For panic disorder, we incorporate interoceptive exposure and breathing retraining. For social anxiety, we include behavioral experiments and social skills development. We also offer EMDR for anxiety rooted in past traumatic experiences.
Modalities Used
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Interoceptive exposure for panic disorder
- EMDR for trauma-related anxiety
- Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR)
