Anxiety Clinic for Children, Adolescents and Adults

"Living with an undiagnosed anxiety disorder can be the loneliest place in the world, until treatment."

Anxiety Disorders are a group of serious- yet treatable- disorders that affect behavior, thoughts, feelings and physical sensations. Anxiety disorders can be caused by a combination of biological and/or environmental factors like many other disorders such as heart disease or diabetes. Anxiety disorders are real and persistent health problems that affect more than one in every ten Americans at some point during their lifetime. Sadly, only about one-fourth of those with anxiety disorders ever get professional help. Realizing that you or someone you care about may need help for an anxiety disorder is a critical first step that too many people never take.

Our clinic specializes in the treatment of the following anxiety disorders for children adolescents and adults. These include a range of anxiety-related problems including:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Separation Anxiety
Panic Disorder
Obsessive-compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
Social Phobia
Specific Phobias

We offer treatment in individual and group format as well as in-depth assessment of psychological functioning. For more information about treatment at our clinic click here or call (804) 828-8069. If you or someone you know is suffering from anxiety, we may be able to help!
