How we treat anxiety — beyond the basics

From generalized anxiety to panic disorder and social anxiety, our approach combines therapy, medication, and practical tools to fit your life. Here's how we help you find relief.

🧠

Psychiatric Evaluation

A thorough diagnostic assessment helps us understand the type and severity of your anxiety — whether it's generalized anxiety, panic disorder, or social anxiety. This ensures your treatment is accurate and personalized from day one.

🗣️

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you break the cycle of anxious thoughts and avoidance. It's one of the most effective approaches for anxiety, and we often integrate it with medication for better results.

🌱

Exposure Therapy

For specific phobias, agoraphobia, and panic disorder, we use gradual, controlled exposure to help you regain freedom — always at your pace.

🧘

Mindfulness‑Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

Learn to observe anxious thoughts without being consumed by them. MBCT is especially helpful for preventing relapse and managing chronic worry.

Telehealth Anxiety Treatment

All our anxiety treatment is available via secure video — including medication management and therapy. Access care from anywhere in Maryland.

Why patients across Maryland trust us with their anxiety care

When you're looking for anxiety treatment in Laurel, you want someone who truly understands. Here's why patients choose us.

01

A board-certified psychiatric specialist

Dr. Gloria Fosu is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. She specializes exclusively in mental health and has advanced training in treating anxiety disorders. When you work with us, you're working with someone who understands the complexities of anxiety and knows how to help.

02

You're never rushed

We schedule generously because meaningful anxiety treatment can't be squeezed into ten minutes. Your first appointment is a full conversation — not a checklist. You'll leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis and what comes next.

03

Treatment that fits your life

Your treatment plan isn't a template. Whether it's therapy, medication, or both, we design a path that fits your schedule and lifestyle. We also offer telehealth appointments for added flexibility. We also coordinate with your therapists and primary care providers to ensure your care is connected.

04

We stay with you for the long haul

Anxiety doesn't disappear overnight, and we don't expect it to. Through regular follow-ups, we monitor your progress and adjust your care as your life changes. We're not just here for one appointment — we're here for the long haul.

How We Approach Anxiety Treatment

Every person experiences anxiety differently — and your treatment should reflect that. Here's how we work with you to find relief.

🧠

Therapy & Practical Coping

We help you understand where your anxiety comes from and give you real tools to manage it. Using proven approaches, we work on changing the thought patterns and behaviors that keep anxiety going.

You'll learn practical techniques you can use in everyday situations — at work, at home, or in social settings. The goal isn't just to feel better temporarily, but to build skills that last.

💊

Medication Management When Needed

For some people, medication is a helpful part of the picture. We take a careful, measured approach — starting with low doses and monitoring closely. Dr. Fosu will explain your options, answer questions, and work with you to find what works best.

We never push medication if you're not comfortable with it. And if you do decide to try it, we'll stay in close contact to make sure it's working and adjust as needed.

Questions we hear every day

You're not the first person to wonder how anxiety treatment actually works. Here are honest answers to the questions our patients ask most — including what to do when anxiety feels overwhelming right now.

01

What if I'm having a panic attack right now?

First, know that you're safe. Panic attacks are uncomfortable but not dangerous. Try grounding yourself: name five things you can see, four you can touch, three you can hear, two you can smell, and one you can taste. Breathe slowly — in through your nose for four counts, hold for four, out through your mouth for four. And remember, this will pass. If this is a recurring experience, we can help you build a long-term plan. Call us or book online to get started with professional support.

02

What does anxiety treatment actually involve?

We start by understanding your unique experience — what triggers your anxiety, how it shows up (physically and mentally), and what you've tried before. From there, we build a plan that may include therapy (like CBT or exposure therapy), medication management if needed, and practical coping strategies you can use in everyday situations. We also offer telehealth for flexibility.

03

How long will it take to feel better?

There's no single timeline — some people notice changes within a few weeks, while others benefit from longer-term support. What matters is consistency. Regular appointments, practicing the coping strategies we discuss, and staying open to adjustments all help. We check in regularly to make sure your treatment plan is working and adjust as needed.

04

Is medication always part of anxiety treatment?

Not at all. For some people, therapy alone is enough. For others, medication management is a helpful addition. We never push medication — we discuss it as an option and only recommend it if we think it could genuinely help. If you do decide to try it, we start with low doses and monitor closely. The decision is always yours.

05

Can I do anxiety treatment from home?

Yes. We offer secure telehealth anxiety treatment for all our services — including therapy, medication management, and follow-up care. Whether you're in Laurel or anywhere in Maryland, you can access expert care from home. Same-week video appointments are often available.

06

How do I get started with anxiety treatment?

Getting started is simple. Call our office at (240) 360-7308 or book online. We'll schedule your initial psychiatric evaluation to understand your needs, discuss your history, and develop a personalized anxiety treatment plan. We're here to support you every step of the way — whether you're dealing with constant worry, panic attacks, or fear in social situations.
