What is anxiety?

Anxiety is your body's way of responding to stress or perceived threats. In moderation, it's entirely normal. But sometimes, anxiety takes on a life of its own and becomes an anxiety disorder, which can alter your daily life. 

What are common types of anxiety disorders? 

Common anxiety disorders that the Clarity Health Solutions team treats include:

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)

GAD is like having a never-ending to-do list of worries about everyday life. The source is often elusive, but the anxiety is constant.

Social anxiety disorder

This disorder causes anxiety about getting into a social interaction that may lead to embarrassment, humiliation, being looked down on, or rejection. 

Phobias

Specific phobias are intense, irrational fears of particular things or situations, such as heights, spiders, or flying.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

OCD comes with intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that drive repetitive behaviors (compulsions). 

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Often following a traumatic event, PTSD can bring on symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, and emotional distress.

Panic disorder

Panic disorder is defined by sudden, intense, and debilitating panic attacks that can strike at any moment, even without any apparent reason.

Relationship anxiety

This form of anxiety revolves around the fear of rejection and abandonment within relationships, causing insecurity and emotional distress.

The experts at Clarity Health Solutions can provide an accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.

What are the symptoms of anxiety?

Symptoms of anxiety include:

  • Restlessness
  • Constant worry or racing thoughts
  • Trouble sleeping or relaxing
  • Heart palpitations, chest tightness, or sweating
  • Avoiding social situations
  • Panic attacks
  • Trembling
  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Muscle tension
  • Digestive problems

Anxiety puts you in a constant state of alertness.

How is anxiety treated?

Clarity Health Solutions offers numerous treatment options to help you reclaim control, including:

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)

This approach helps you recognize and reframe negative thought patterns, promoting healthier behaviors and emotional responses.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a specialized therapy often used for PTSD. It helps you process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact by using guided eye movements.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) 

DBT helps manage intense emotions, teaching you skills to navigate distress and improve interpersonal relationships.

Medication management

Medication management might be recommended by your provider, which may include antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications to help alleviate symptoms.

Hypnotherapy

Glexi Garcia, MBA, INHC, CHT, is a trained hypnotherapist who performs hypnosis, which can provide relaxation and focus to explore and address anxiety triggers.

What to Expect at Clarity Health Solutions

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re already struggling with anxiety. At Clarity Health Solutions, we strive to make the process simple, welcoming, and supportive.

Your first session begins with a compassionate intake process where we take the time to understand your unique experiences, symptoms, and goals. From there, your therapist will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan. This plan may include evidence-based therapies such as CBT, EMDR, or hypnotherapy, depending on your needs.

We recognize that every individual is different, which is why we offer flexible treatment options. Sessions can take place in our comfortable Jupiter, FL office or virtually through secure telehealth counseling, allowing you to access care wherever you feel most comfortable. For some clients, therapy may also include support for relationships and families, ensuring that healing extends into every part of your life.

Our goal is to provide more than just symptom relief — we aim to help you build confidence, resilience, and long-term strategies for managing anxiety.

Frequently Asked Questions About Anxiety Therapy

How do I know if I need therapy for anxiety?
If worry, panic, or fear are interfering with your daily life, relationships, work, or sleep, it may be time to seek support. Many people wait until their symptoms become overwhelming, but therapy can help at any stage of anxiety.

Does therapy for anxiety really work?
Yes. Evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR have been proven to significantly reduce anxiety symptoms. Many of our clients report noticeable improvements in just a few sessions.

How long does anxiety treatment take?
The length of treatment depends on your personal goals and the severity of your anxiety. Some people find relief within a few weeks, while others benefit from ongoing sessions to build long-term coping skills.

Is telehealth effective for anxiety therapy?
Absolutely. Research shows that telehealth anxiety therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions. Many clients appreciate the convenience and privacy of accessing therapy from home.

What’s the difference between normal stress and an anxiety disorder?
Stress is typically tied to a specific situation and subsides once that situation passes. Anxiety, however, often feels constant, excessive, and disproportionate to the situation. If you find that your worries don’t go away or are interfering with your quality of life, therapy may help.
