Anxiety Treatment

Anxiety is a natural response to stress or perceived danger. It can help you stay alert and prepared in challenging situations. However, when anxiety becomes persistent, intense, or difficult to control, it can interfere with daily life, relationships, work, sleep, and physical health.

People living with anxiety may experience ongoing worry, fear, nervousness, or panic even when there is no immediate threat. When these symptoms last for weeks or months and affect functioning, professional treatment is often needed.

At LifewoRx Mental Health, we understand that anxiety is not a personal weakness—it is a treatable mental health condition.

Common Types of Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety can present in different forms. Our providers diagnose and treat all major anxiety disorders, including:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Characterized by constant and excessive worry about everyday situations such as work, health, finances, or relationships. Symptoms often include restlessness, fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating.

Panic Disorder

Involves recurrent panic attacks, which are sudden episodes of intense fear accompanied by physical symptoms such as chest pain, rapid heartbeat, dizziness, shortness of breath, or a feeling of losing control.

Social Anxiety Disorder

Marked by intense fear of social interactions or performance situations. Individuals may avoid social settings due to fear of embarrassment, judgment, or rejection.

Health Anxiety

Excessive worry about having or developing severe medical conditions, often despite reassurance from healthcare providers.

Phobias

Intense and irrational fear of specific objects or situations, such as flying, heights, or enclosed spaces.

Anxiety Related to Trauma or PTSD

Anxiety that develops after traumatic experiences is often accompanied by hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, and emotional distress.

Anxiety with Depression or ADHD

Anxiety frequently occurs alongside other mental health conditions and requires an integrated treatment approach.

Cultural background and lived experiences

This evaluation allows us to accurately diagnose the type of anxiety and develop a personalized treatment plan.
