Anxiety

Anxiety is not simply “overthinking.”
It reflects how the brain and nervous system are responding to perceived threat, uncertainty, or prolonged stress.

At Neuroscience Psychiatry, we approach anxiety by identifying what is keeping the nervous system on high alert and helping it regain flexibility and safety.

How Anxiety Can Show Up

Anxiety can present in many ways, including:

  • Excessive worry or rumination

  • Feeling on edge or unable to relax

  • Restlessness or muscle tension

  • Racing thoughts

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Sleep disruption

  • Physical symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, or gastrointestinal discomfort

Symptoms may fluctuate and often overlap with depression, insomnia, trauma, or ADHD.

Understanding Anxiety Through a Brain-Based Lens

Anxiety is commonly associated with:

  • Chronic nervous system activation

  • Heightened threat detection

  • Stress-hormone imbalance

  • Sensory or cognitive overload

  • Difficulty shifting out of protective patterns

  • Learned responses to past stress or trauma

These patterns are adaptive at first but can become exhausting and disruptive over time.

Our Approach to Treatment

You do not need to select a treatment before being evaluated.

Care begins with a comprehensive assessment that explores:

  • Symptom patterns and triggers

  • Nervous system regulation

  • Sleep and recovery quality

  • Past treatment history

  • Personal goals and preferences

Treatment recommendations are individualized and may include psychiatry, therapy, neuromodulation, integrative approaches, or a combination, based on clinical fit and effectiveness.

When to Consider an Evaluation

You may benefit from an evaluation if:

  • Anxiety feels constant or overwhelming

  • Symptoms interfere with work, sleep, or relationships

  • Physical symptoms persist without clear medical cause

  • You’ve tried coping strategies or treatments without lasting relief

  • You’re unsure whether anxiety is the primary issue or part of a larger pattern

A thorough evaluation can help clarify what’s driving your symptoms.

How Care at Neuroscience Psychiatry Works

1. Start with your free Brain Wiring Assessment

Take our quick online assessment to get a snapshot of how your brain and nervous system may be wired. You’ll see your results instantly, and they’ll guide your provider in understanding your starting point.

2. Schedule your comprehensive evaluation

Your first appointment is a deep-dive, not a rushed intake. Depending on your needs, this may include:

* A full psychiatric evaluation

* Optional brain mapping or neuroscience-based testing

* A review of your history, goals, and lifestyle factors

Together, we’ll uncover what’s driving your symptoms and create a plan that fits you—not just a prescription.

3. Get your personalized recommendations
Based on your evaluation, your provider may recommend:

* Psychiatry and medication management (when helpful)

* Therapy, mindfulness, or clinical hypnotherapy

* Natural medicine options for mood, sleep, and focus

* Neuroscience therapies like brain mapping, neurostimulation, or TMS

You’ll know exactly why each recommendation was made, and how it supports your brain and body.

4. Follow your plan, with ongoing support

Care doesn’t stop after your first visit. You’ll meet with your provider regularly to track progress, fine-tune your plan, and celebrate wins. Between sessions, you’ll have access to check-ins, guided tools, and self-tracking exercises to help you stay on course.

5. Track your progress and evolve

We measure what matters—your real improvements. With ongoing feedback, your provider adjusts your care so you continue moving toward balance, focus, and resilience.
