Hello, and thanks for your question.

Anxiety disorders are best treated with a combination of medication and therapy. The best types to use are SSRI medications such as escitalopram or sertraline, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Contact your insurance company to obtain a list of psychiatric providers in your area.
