Autumnleaf Group, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
In life we are told to just push through hard times- we hear: “it’ll get better”, “time heals all wounds”, “that happened such a long time ago- get over it”. We get so caught up in pretending everything is fine- trying to forget the bad things that have happened in our lives and for what? Fear of asking for help? Being perceived as weak? Scared to feel vulnerable? That fear of feeling vulnerable keeps us humans from truly feeling joy and happiness. It can distance us from the ones we love and be the cause of using maladaptive coping mechanisms. Mitra Shahryary specializes in this area.

"It's normal to feel anxious from time to time, especially if your life is stressful. However, excessive, ongoing anxiety and worry that are difficult to control and interfere with day-to-day activities may be a sign of generalized anxiety disorder. It's possible to develop generalized anxiety disorder as a child or an adult. Generalized anxiety disorder has symptoms that are similar to panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other types of anxiety, but they're all different conditions.
Living with generalized anxiety disorder can be a long-term challenge. In many cases, it occurs along with other anxiety or mood disorders. In most cases, generalized anxiety disorder improves with psychotherapy or medications. Making lifestyle changes, learning coping skills and using relaxation techniques also can help." - Mayo Clinic

Katarina (Kat) Mijic-Barisic
Psychiatrist, MSN, PMHNP
Creating a holistic treatment plan for anxiety involves addressing the physical, psychological, social, and lifestyle factors that contribute to the individual's symptoms.
Comprehensive Assessment: We'll begin with a thorough assessment to understand the individual's symptoms, triggers, medical history, and personal goals.
Psychotherapy: We'll incorporate evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), or mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) into sessions. These approaches help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and cultivate mindfulness skills to manage anxiety symptoms.
Medication Management (if applicable): We'll consider medication such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), or other psychotropic medications based on the severity of symptoms and individual needs.
