Anxiety Treatment

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health conditions, affecting millions of individuals. While occasional stress is a normal part of life, persistent anxiety can interfere with relationships, work, and overall well-being. At Promises Atlanta, we provide treatment for:

• Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) – Chronic worry and excessive fear about daily activities and responsibilities
• Social anxiety disorder – Intense fear of social situations, often leading to avoidance of interactions
• Panic disorder – Recurrent panic attacks that cause sudden, overwhelming fear and physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) – Trauma-related anxiety, flashbacks, and heightened stress responses
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) – Persistent, unwanted thoughts and repetitive behaviors performed to reduce anxiety

Understanding your symptoms is the first step toward effective treatment and lasting relief.

Recognizing the signs of anxiety early can help prevent symptoms from escalating. Some common indicators include:

• Constant worrying or fear that interferes with daily life
• Difficulty concentrating or feeling overwhelmed
• Restlessness, irritability, or feeling on edge
• Sleep disturbances, including insomnia or frequent nightmares
• Physical symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, or digestive issues

If anxiety is affecting your ability to function, professional treatment can provide tools to manage symptoms and improve your quality of life.

Promises Atlanta’s anxiety treatment program is tailored to meet your unique needs. Our approach includes:

• Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) – Helps identify and change negative thought patterns contributing to anxiety
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) – Focuses on emotional regulation and mindfulness techniques to manage stress
• Exposure therapy – Gradual exposure to fears in a controlled environment to reduce avoidance behaviors
• Holistic approaches – Incorporating relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, and breathwork
• Medication management – When appropriate, medication may be used to stabilize symptoms alongside therapy

By combining therapeutic techniques with personalized care, we empower you to take control of your anxiety and regain confidence in your daily life.
