Anxiety is more than just occasional stress. When worries become chronic, disproportionate, or interfere with daily life, they may signal an anxiety disorder. Common types include:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) – Excessive worry about everyday events

Social Anxiety Disorder – Fear of being judged or embarrassed in social settings

Panic Disorder – Sudden, intense episodes of fear or physical panic symptoms

Separation Anxiety – Common in children; fear of being away from caregivers

Specific Phobias – Intense fear of particular objects or situations

Anxiety can impact sleep, school, work, relationships, and physical health—but with the right support, it is treatable.

Our team provides in-depth, personalized evaluations that explore symptoms, triggers, and patterns of anxiety. We take time to understand the whole picture, including:

• Clinical interviews and symptom inventories
• Developmental and family history
• Identification of co-occurring conditions (such as depression, ADHD, or trauma)
• Collaboration with schools or other providers as needed

We tailor our assessment to each individual, ensuring an accurate diagnosis and a strong foundation for effective treatment.
