Understanding Anxiety
What is Anxiety?
Anxiety disorders involve intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations, often including repeated episodes of panic attacks — including silent panic attacks, where intense internal fear occurs without visible outward signs. These feelings interfere with daily activities, are difficult to control, and are out of proportion to the actual danger.
Triggers can include severe stress, previous trauma, current lifestyle habits, or underlying neurological conditions. The good news: anxiety is highly treatable with the right support and care. Effective therapy for anxiety — including exposure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and medication management — can significantly reduce symptoms and restore your quality of life.
Exposure therapy for anxiety is one of the most effective evidence-based approaches available. It works by gradually and safely exposing you to the situations or thoughts that trigger anxiety, reducing their power over time. Our providers will determine whether exposure therapy or another approach is the right fit for your specific needs.
Signs of Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety can manifest in many different ways. Here are common signs that may indicate an anxiety disorder:
Physical Symptoms
Trembling, sweating, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, or muscle tension.
Sleep Disturbances
Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep due to racing thoughts or worry.
Panic Attacks
Sudden intense episodes of fear accompanied by physical symptoms like chest pain or dizziness.
Silent Panic Attacks
Silent panic attacks cause intense internal fear and distress without obvious outward signs — no shaking or hyperventilating, but overwhelming dread, dizziness, or a sense of unreality.
Avoidance Behaviors
Avoiding situations or activities that trigger anxiety, limiting your quality of life.
Difficulty Concentrating
Problems focusing at work or school due to intrusive anxious thoughts.
Irritability
Feeling on edge, irritable, or quick to anger as a result of constant tension.
Restlessness
Feeling constantly keyed up, unable to relax, or feeling like something bad will happen.
