Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD): People with GAD worry excessively about various aspects of their life, such as health, work, or finances. The worry is often out of proportion to the actual situation and can be difficult to control.
Panic Disorder: This involves recurrent, unexpected panic attacks. Panic attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear that trigger severe physical reactions when there is no real danger or apparent cause. People with panic disorder live in fear of having another panic attack and may avoid places where panic attacks have occurred in the past.
Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD): SAD, also known as social phobia, involves high levels of anxiety, fear, and avoidance of social situations due to feelings of embarrassment, self-consciousness, and concern about being judged or viewed negatively by others.
Phobias: Phobias are intense fears about specific things or situations, such as heights (acrophobia), flying (aviophobia), spiders (arachnophobia), or enclosed spaces (claustrophobia). The level of fear is usually inappropriate to the situation and can cause the person to go to great lengths to avoid the feared object or situation.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): While not classified as an anxiety disorder in the latest version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), OCD involves unwanted and intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that cause anxiety, leading to repetitive behaviors (compulsions) to try to alleviate the distress.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): PTSD can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as warfare, sexual assault, or a serious accident. Symptoms include flashbacks of the trauma, nightmares, and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event.
At Compassion Practice, the Anxiety Therapy treatment is not just about controlling symptoms, it’s about reclaiming your life and rediscovering the joy, peace, and fulfillment that anxiety may have been masking. This transformative journey, while challenging, is absolutely achievable and can lead to a life characterized by greater wellness, productivity, and happiness.
Anxiety often brings with it constant worry and racing thoughts that cloud your mind. Therapy, however, equips you with effective strategies to manage these thoughts, quiet your mind, and regain your mental clarity. This newfound clarity can enhance your ability to concentrate, make decisions, and perform at your best.
Physical health can also see a significant improvement with anxiety treatment. Chronic anxiety often manifests as persistent physical symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, and sleep disturbances.
At The Compassion Practice, we use a holistic and patient-centered approach to treat anxiety. Our dedicated therapists utilize a range of evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and other therapeutic approaches.
