Anxiety and Related Disorders Treatment that Actually Works

Anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder, OCD, and phobias require specialized psychological care.

Cognitive-Behavior Therapy/Behavior Therapy

Cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) seeks to understand the connections between thoughts, behaviors and emotions in the maintenance of anxiety. This treatment approach allows patients to remain focused on the present and address ways to learn new thought and behavioral patterns. With the support of your therapist, patients learn skills to challenge thinking patterns, and learn how to navigate stressful situations and triggering events in more adaptive ways.

Exposure therapy and ERP are considered gold-standard treatments for all anxiety disorders (i.e., phobias, social anxiety, PTSD, GAD, OCD, panic, agoraphobia, health anxiety).
