What are Anxiety Disorders?

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by excessive, persistent feelings of worry, fear, or nervousness that interfere with daily life. Unlike normal anxiety, which is a natural stress response, anxiety disorders cause intense, ongoing distress that can disrupt sleep, concentration, and overall well-being.

What are Anxiety Disorders?

Anxiety presents in various ways, and each type comes with its own set of patterns and challenges. Recognizing these types and their symptoms is essential for taking meaningful steps toward management and relief:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder

GAD involves ongoing, excessive worry about daily life, work, health, relationships, finances, often without a clear cause. This constant state of tension can make it hard to focus and may lead to physical symptoms like restlessness, muscle tightness, exhaustion, and disrupted sleep. Many individuals with GAD struggle to quiet their anxious thoughts, even when they recognize them as excessive or irrational.

Panic Disorder

Panic disorder is marked by sudden, intense episodes of fear that escalate quickly, often within minutes. These panic attacks can involve symptoms like chest pain, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, dizziness, and a sense of disconnection from reality.

Social Anxiety Disorder

Also called social phobia, this disorder causes intense fear in social or performance situations. People may worry excessively about being judged, embarrassed, or rejected. Symptoms often include avoiding social events, nausea, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and extreme self-consciousness.

Specific Phobias

These are intense fears of particular objects or situations, such as flying, needles, or animals. Although the fear is often out of proportion to the actual danger, it can trigger immediate physical reactions like sweating, trembling, or an urgent need to flee.

Agoraphobia

Agoraphobia is characterized by a profound fear of being in environments where escape could feel difficult or where help may be hard to reach if anxiety or panic strikes. Common triggers include crowded spaces, public transit, or being alone in open areas. Symptoms can include a racing heart, lightheadedness, sweating, a sense of helplessness, and overwhelming fear of losing control or feeling trapped.

Separation Anxiety Disorder

While commonly linked with children, adults can also experience separation anxiety. This involves extreme distress when away from loved ones and fear that harm will come to them or the person they’re attached to. Symptoms may include nightmares, physical complaints like nausea or headaches, and avoidance of travel or independence.

How Might Therapy for Anxiety Help?

Our therapist starts by deeply attuning to how anxiety impacts your life, because no two experiences are exactly alike. In our secure, one-on-one virtual sessions, your anxiety therapist​ creates space for you to unpack the emotional layers, triggers, and internal narratives driving your anxiety.
From there, we draw on evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based interventions, and somatic practices to help recalibrate your response to stress. These integrated healing approaches empower you to interrupt anxious cycles, regulate your nervous system, and restore clarity.
As you cultivate psychological resilience and rebuild self-trust, you’ll find yourself moving through life with greater calm, presence, and purpose. Each session with our anxiety therapist​ brings you closer to feeling grounded, anchored, and like yourself again.
