Dr. Caro's anxiety care is guided by a personalized and patient-centered approach. Each treatment plan is created for the individual’s unique symptoms, concerns, and lifestyle, combining therapy recommendations, practical coping strategies, and non-controlled medication options
when appropriate.
Anxiety can show up in different ways. Here are some common signs that may mean it’s time to reach out for support:
Ongoing or excessive worry that feels difficult to control and impacts daily activities.
Feeling on edge, unable to relax, or constantly unsettled throughout the day.
Struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or achieve restful sleep due to anxious thoughts.
Difficulty concentrating or staying on task because of intrusive worries or racing thoughts.
Seeking help for anxiety can feel intimidating, but our practice provides a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment. Dr. Caro makes sure every patient feels heard, understood, and supported while exploring treatment options that fit their goals and lifestyle. Together, we work at a pace that feels comfortable, building trust and hope along the way.
Anxiety can develop for many reasons, and often it’s a mix of factors rather than a single cause. Stressful life events, ongoing pressure at work or home, or major changes can trigger anxious feelings. Sometimes, anxiety is linked to genetics, brain chemistry, or even past trauma. Even physical health conditions or certain medications can play a role. Each person’s experience is unique, and Dr. Caro works with you to uncover the factors that may be contributing to your anxiety.
Anxiety can feel different for everyone, but many people describe it as a mix of constant worry, nervousness, or unease that doesn’t seem to go away. It may show up as a racing heart, tightness in the chest, trouble focusing, restlessness, or even difficulty sleeping. Some people feel a sense of dread without knowing why, while others notice physical symptoms like sweating or stomach discomfort. If these feelings interfere with your daily life, relationships, or sense of peace, it may be time to seek support.
