What is Anxiety Disorder?

Anxiety is more than just feeling stressed or nervous. For those with anxiety disorders, these feelings become overwhelming and persistent, affecting many aspects of life. From social situations to daily tasks, anxiety can make it hard to function, often leaving you feeling trapped in your own thoughts and emotions.

Anxiety disorders come in many forms, including…

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Persistent worry about everyday situations, often without a clear cause.

Panic Disorder

Sudden and intense episodes of fear and physical symptoms, like heart palpitations, dizziness, or chest pain.

Social Anxiety Disorder

Extreme fear of social situations, often leading to avoidance or intense discomfort.

Specific Phobias

Overwhelming fear of specific objects or situations (e.g., heights, spiders, flying).

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Recurrent, intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing anxiety.

Anxiety can lead to both physical and emotional distress. Symptoms may include:

  • Racing heart or palpitations
  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
  • Sweating or trembling
  • Stomachaches or nausea
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Irritability or restlessness
  • Difficulty concentrating or thinking clearly

Who is a Good Candidate for Treatment?

If you experience any of the following, treatment may be right for you:

  • You feel intense fear or panic in situations where others would typically feel calm (e.g., talking to strangers, going to work, or simply stepping outside).
  • Everyday tasks and responsibilities cause significant distress or avoidant behaviors.
  • Your anxiety is so pervasive that it interferes with your ability to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or care for yourself.
  • You experience panic attacks, where you feel like you’re losing control or are about to faint, even in the absence of a clear danger.

Anxiety disorders can make life feel unmanageable, but with the right care and support, it’s possible to regain control and live a fulfilling life.

Why are we a great choice for anxiety treatment?

Holistic Approach

We don’t just address the symptoms of anxiety. Our treatment plan looks at all aspects of your well-being—mental, emotional, and spiritual—to help you achieve balance and inner peace. We explore both practical coping mechanisms and holistic strategies to calm your anxious thoughts and emotions.

Faith-Based Support

Anxiety can often feel like a spiritual battle as much as an emotional one. At Peace of Mind, we incorporate faith-based practices that bring hope, peace, and clarity. Whether through prayer, meditation, or grounding yourself in scripture, we believe that spiritual healing can complement psychological therapy, providing a deeper sense of calm.

Personalized Therapy

Anxiety isn’t a one-size-fits-all condition, so your treatment shouldn’t be either. Dr. Titus-Thomas tailors each treatment plan to your unique needs, using evidence-based therapeutic techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), relaxation training, and mindfulness practices to help you manage anxiety and build resilience.

Empathy and Understanding

Anxiety can be isolating, leaving you feeling misunderstood or even ashamed. We are here to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can express your fears, concerns, and experiences. Your healing journey is important to us, and we’re committed to supporting you every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most common signs of an anxiety disorder?
Anxiety disorders are characterized by excessive worry, fear, or panic. Common signs include rapid heartbeat, sweating, difficulty breathing, trembling, feeling dizzy or nauseous, and avoiding certain situations due to anxiety. If these symptoms are persistent and disrupt daily life, it may be time to seek treatment.
Is anxiety something I can control on my own?
While there are self-help strategies you can use to manage anxiety, such as mindfulness and relaxation techniques, anxiety disorders often require professional treatment. Therapy can provide you with the tools and support to better manage your anxiety and ultimately reduce its impact on your life.
What kind of therapy do you offer for anxiety?
At Peace of Mind, we specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps you identify and change negative thought patterns contributing to your anxiety.

Additionally, our faith-based approach can provide comfort and strength as you work through your challenges.
How long will it take to feel better?
The length of time it takes to feel relief from anxiety varies depending on the individual and the severity of symptoms. Some people experience improvement within a few sessions, while others may need more long-term therapy. Dr. Titus-Thomas will work with you to set realistic goals and create a personalized treatment plan that suits your needs.
Will you involve my faith in my treatment?
Yes. At Peace of Mind, we believe that spiritual well-being is a key component of overall mental health. If faith is important to you, we will incorporate practices like prayer, scripture, and spiritual support into your treatment to help you find peace and strength.
