What Is Anxiety?

Anxiety disorders are the most common type of mental disorder and affect nearly 30% of adults at some point in their lives. Anxiety is an emotion marked by feelings of tension, worrisome thoughts, and physical changes such as elevated blood pressure. Although anxiety and fear are often confused, they are distinct. Anxiety is a long-lasting, future-oriented response to a vague threat, while fear is a short-term, present-focused reaction to a specific and identifiable danger.

Treatment Options for Anxiety

Therapists, psychiatrists, psychologists and other mental health professionals can treat anxiety in several ways. An individual struggling with anxiety may need therapy, anxiety medication management, or a combination of both to start feeling better. Psychotherapy treatments for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). In CBT, an individual can learn to respond to triggers differently to help reduce anxiety levels. Mental health professionals can provide specific tools designed to guide people struggling with anxiety through stressful situations.

Medication Treatment Options for Anxiety

A variety of anti-anxiety medications, also known as anxiolytics, are sometimes prescribed to help manage symptoms of anxiety disorders. Your psychiatric clinician will personalize medication choices according to your specific medical needs.

Therapy Options for Anxiety

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used and evidence-based therapy for anxiety disorders. It focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety. CBT can help individuals develop coping strategies, challenge irrational thoughts, and gradually confront feared situations through exposure therapy.

Online Treatment Options for Anxiety

In many cases, people with generalized anxiety disorder can be diagnosed and treated through virtual appointments. Online therapy and psychiatry options can help patients to fit anxiety treatment into their busy schedules. Studies have shown that mental health care can be effective when conducted through online appointments, and our online appointments are designed to be HIPAA-compliant and safe.
