Anxiety Treatment in Southlake & Flower Mound | Dr. Messina & Associates

The duration of anxiety treatment varies depending on the individual and the severity of their anxiety. Some people may experience significant improvement in a few months, while others may require longer-term therapy. We will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and regularly assess your progress to ensure you’re receiving the optimal level of care.

If your anxiety is interfering with your daily life, relationships, or overall well-being, it may be time to seek professional help. Signs to watch for include:

• Persistent and excessive worry
• Difficulty controlling your fears or worries
• Avoiding situations or activities that trigger anxiety
• Physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, sweating, or difficulty breathing
• Changes in sleep or appetite

Many insurance plans cover mental health services, including anxiety treatment. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to verify your specific coverage and benefits. Our team can also assist you in understanding your insurance coverage and navigating any necessary paperwork.

Your first therapy session is an opportunity for you to share your concerns and experiences with anxiety. Your therapist will ask questions about your symptoms, history, and goals for treatment. It’s also a chance for you to learn more about the therapist’s approach and ask any questions you may have.

While there’s no guaranteed “cure” for anxiety, effective treatment can significantly reduce symptoms and improve your overall quality of life. Therapy equips you with coping mechanisms and strategies to manage anxiety triggers, empowering you to lead a fulfilling and productive life.
