Expert Anxiety Disorder Treatment in Northern New Jersey

Anxiety is your body’s natural response to stress; we all feel it now and then. Feeling anxious before a test, starting a new job, or moving to a new city is a normal part of life. Anxiety keeps us alert in new situations, warns us about danger, and helps us stay aware of our surroundings. 

However, if you feel fearful about everyday situations, or if nervous feelings keep you from doing the things you enjoy, you might have an Anxiety Disorder. 

Fortunately, Anxiety Disorders are fairly common and effective treatment for anxiety is available. Many Lukin Center patients find that a combination of medication, psychotherapy, and lifestyle changes can help relieve symptoms and greatly improve their quality of life at home and at work. 

If you’re experiencing symptoms of Anxiety Disorder, it’s important to seek treatment early. Left untreated, Anxiety Disorders can trigger or worsen other issues, such as depression, substance abuse, insomnia, chronic pain, and other medical issues.
