Anxiety Disorders
Understanding and Managing Anxiety
At Focus Point Psychiatric, we provide specialized care for individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and Social Anxiety Disorder. Anxiety can manifest in various ways, impacting emotional well-being, relationships, and daily activities. Our goal is to offer a safe and supportive space where clients can explore and understand their anxiety, learn effective coping strategies, and regain control over their lives.
Types of Anxiety Disorders We Treat
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
GAD is characterized by excessive, uncontrollable worry about everyday events and activities. People with GAD may find it challenging to manage this worry, even when they know it may be unfounded. Common symptoms include restlessness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, muscle tension, and sleep disturbances.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social Anxiety Disorder involves an intense fear of social situations, often due to a fear of being judged, embarrassed, or scrutinized by others. This disorder can make everyday interactions, such as meeting new people or speaking in public, feel overwhelming. Symptoms may include sweating, rapid heartbeat, trembling, and a strong desire to avoid social situations.
