We treat anxiety disorders at The Well Woman, LLC – Clarkston, GA. Anxiety disorders are considered the most common and frequently occurring mental disorders. Anxiety is a normal reaction to anything that might be threatening to a person’s lifestyle, values, self, or loved ones. Everyone experiences anxiety from time to time. One might feel a sense of discomfort, butterflies in the stomach, a rapid heart rate, or nervous fidgeting. Some degree of anxiety can benefit us and even motivate us to prepare for upcoming tasks such as an exam, presentation, or performance, or to ward off a threat. However, too much anxiety can cause significant discomfort and interfere with life’s daily tasks.

We use multiple treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to treat anxiety. We incorporate mindfulness, meditation, breathing and relaxation exercises, as well as yoga-psychotherapy during treatment. The goal is to be able to decrease symptoms of anxiety at the moment, defeat or challenge irrational and worrisome thoughts that promote anxiety, and replace unhealthy patterns of coping such as avoidance and isolation with healthy coping skills such as acceptance, reframing thoughts, and doing the opposite of your fear.
