Panic Attack
At Smart Therapy PC, panic attack therapy is a supportive and confidential process where individuals work one-on-one with a skilled therapist to explore the causes of their panic attacks, develop effective coping strategies, and enhance their mental well-being. Our therapists are trained to help you understand the underlying issues contributing to your panic attacks and provide guidance to manage and reduce their impact on your daily life.
Understanding Panic Attacks
Panic attacks are sudden episodes of intense fear or anxiety that can occur without warning. They can be extremely distressing and can significantly impact a person's quality of life. Panic attacks often involve physical symptoms such as heart palpitations, sweating, shaking, shortness of breath, and dizziness. These episodes can be triggered by specific situations or occur unexpectedly, making it challenging to perform daily activities and maintain relationships.
