Why Does My 6 Years Old Wake Up After Sleeping Crying And Anxious?

I have a six year old daughter who lately has been waking up in approx 1 hour to 1 1/2 hr after going to sleep. when she wakes up, she gets out of bed and sees me but does not make sense, she starts to cry a little and appears to be anxious..I believe it s appears to be sleepwalking but this happens at least 3-4 times a week. and also she is sweating. All I have done is assure her everything is okay and bring her to her bed....should I really be concerned about this and get professional help
