Signs You May Be Struggling With Anxiety
Anxiety affects everyone differently, but there are common symptoms of anxiety, both emotional and physical symptoms, that may suggest it is time to seek help:
Constant or excessive worry that feels hard to control
Restlessness or feeling on edge most of the day
Panic attacks with racing heart, shortness of breath, or dizziness
Difficulty concentrating or staying present
Sleep problems, such as trouble falling or staying asleep
Muscle tension, headaches, or stomach upset
Avoiding situations that trigger fear or discomfort
Types of Anxiety We Treat
Anxiety comes in many forms, and treatment for anxiety disorders is personalized based on your unique symptoms and psychiatric/medical history. At Innate Wisdom Psychiatry & Wellness, we commonly treat:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD):
Persistent, everyday worry and tension that interferes with work, school, or relationships.
Panic Disorder:
Sudden, intense episodes of fear or panic attacks that may cause chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness.
Strong fear of being judged or embarrassed in social settings, often leading to avoidance.
Social Anxiety Disorder:
Specific Phobias:
Intense fears of certain situations or objects, such as flying, driving, or public spaces, which can cause severe anxiety if left untreated.
These symptoms may come and go or feel constant. If they’re interfering with your relationships, work, or sense of safety, it’s time to consider professional support.
Medication Management and Integrative Treatment for Anxiety
Medication can be a powerful tool to treat anxiety disorders, reduce anxious symptoms, and help you regain balance in daily life. At Innate Wisdom Psychiatry & Wellness, we begin with a thorough evaluation to understand your symptoms, history, and treatment goals.
Common treatment options may include SSRIs, SNRIs, or other evidence-based medications or supplements. Daniel carefully explains how each medication works, what to expect, and possible side effects, so you feel informed and supported in your choices. If appropriate, our holistic care strategy can also include supportive therapy, mindfulness, somatic techniques, and lifestyle strategies to support relief of anxiety and stress.
Ongoing follow-up is just as important as the initial evaluation. Regular check-ins allow us to monitor progress, make adjustments, and ensure that your medication plan continues to meet your needs, helping you move towards lasting relief and a greater sense of well-being.

— Joseph F.
I’ve been seeing Daniel Plastino for about 3 years now and he has been instrumental in helping me through my mental health challenges. I was at the lowest point in my life when I met Daniel, and through his compassion and knowledge of mental health, we were able to not only develop a treatment plan that truly fit my needs, but I was able to get back to living life again. I feel empowered now knowing that I have the tools that I need to navigate through life’s challenges. Thanks Daniel for all you do!
