Why Consider Anxiety Therapy?

Seeking therapy for anxiety is one of the most empowering decisions you can make. Whether you’re experiencing chronic worry, panic attacks, social fear, or trauma-related stress, anxiety can interfere with work, relationships, and your overall well-being. 

Through therapy, you’ll gain the tools to better understand your triggers, manage your symptoms, and take control of your emotional health. You don’t have to “tough it out” alone—help is available and effective.

Why Choose First City Mental Health Center?

We go beyond surface-level care. At First City Mental Health Center, our licensed therapists and providers are trained in evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other proven approaches. What sets us apart is our deep commitment to meeting you where you are—with respect, empathy, and treatment that reflects your personal needs and goals.

Unlike rigid inpatient programs, our outpatient setting offers flexibility, allowing you to receive therapy on your schedule while maintaining your daily responsibilities. Whether you’re balancing work, school, or family life, we make quality care accessible without sacrificing effectiveness.

How Does It Work?

Starting anxiety treatment therapy is simple, and we’re here to guide you through each step:

• Initial Assessment: You’ll begin with a one-on-one consultation with a licensed clinician who will listen, assess your symptoms, and explore your mental health history.
• Custom Treatment Plan: Based on your needs, we’ll design a therapy plan that may include individual therapy, group therapy, and medication management, if appropriate.
• Regular Sessions: You’ll attend ongoing sessions—either weekly or bi-weekly—where you’ll build opening skills, challenge anxious thinking, and track your progress.
• Supportive Adjustments: Your treatment plan will evolve as you do. We regularly evaluate your growth and make adjustments to support long-term success.
• Aftercare & Wellness Planning: As your symptoms improve, we’ll help you plan for ongoing wellness through supportive resources and relapse prevention tools.

   

   

The Many Faces of Anxiety: What We Treat

Understanding That Anxiety Looks Different for Everyone

At First City Mental Health Center, we know that anxiety doesn’t show up the same way in every person. That’s why we take a comprehensive, diagnostic-based approach to identify and treat a wide range of anxiety-related conditions, including:

• Panic Disorder: Sudden and repeated panic attacks—intense episodes of fear accompanied by physical symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, and dizziness.
• Social Anxiety Disorder: Persistent fear of judgment or embarrassment in social or performance settings.
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Repetitive thoughts (obsessions) and behaviors (compulsions) aimed at relieving anxiety.
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Trauma-based anxiety that includes flashbacks, hypervigilance, and emotional numbing following distressing events.
• Health Anxiety (Hypochondria): Intense worry over physical health or illness, despite little or no medical evidence.
• Phobias: Specific fears (e.g., of heights, driving, or enclosed spaces) that lead to avoidance and disruption of daily activities.

We personalize each treatment plan to match your symptoms and diagnosis, so you can find relief that feels right for you.
