Meeting You Where You Are
At Apogee Behavioral Medicine, we understand how overwhelming anxiety can be. Whether you’re feeling constantly on edge, experiencing racing thoughts, or avoiding situations that once felt normal, anxiety disorders can deeply interfere with daily life. Our anxiety treatment services in Charlotte, NC are designed to help you regain control, improve your well-being, and start a sustainable path toward healing. With experienced clinicians and a compassionate, evidence-based approach, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
Understanding Anxiety Disorder
Anxiety disorder is one of the most common mental health conditions, yet it often goes untreated. It manifests in various forms, from generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and panic attacks to phobias and social anxiety. These conditions can lead to persistent worry, fear, and negative thoughts that interfere with daily functioning. Some people feel anxious in social situations, while others experience chronic tension that never quite goes away. Physical symptoms—like fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating—often accompany the mental strain.
Without the right treatment, these symptoms can worsen over time. But with proven methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and medication when necessary, individuals can find relief. At Apogee, we take the time to understand your symptoms and how they’re affecting your life, so we can recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
How Apogee’s Anxiety Treatment Services Support Your Mental Health
Anxiety doesn’t just impact your mind—it affects your body, relationships, and ability to function. That’s why we take a comprehensive approach that addresses both emotional and physical health. Our licensed clinicians in Charlotte work with you to improve emotion regulation, reduce stress, and restore a sense of calm. In addition to therapy, we offer psychiatric services when medication may be beneficial.
We also encourage practices that promote long-term mental health, like practicing mindfulness, strengthening social connections, and learning healthy coping strategies. By fostering a supportive environment, our team helps you build the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges with more confidence and resilience.
Types of Anxiety Disorders
There are several types of anxiety disorders, each requiring a personalized treatment approach. Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is marked by excessive worry about everyday events, often lasting for six months or more. Symptoms can include restlessness, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating, which can severely disrupt daily routines. Social anxiety disorder, on the other hand, involves an intense fear of being judged or embarrassed in public settings, which can lead to avoidance behaviors that isolate individuals from work, school, or relationships.
At Apogee, we also treat anxiety that co-occurs with other mental health conditions like depression and eating disorders. Because anxiety is not one-size-fits-all, our treatment options range from CBT and exposure therapy to solution-focused therapy and mindfulness-based techniques. These evidence-based approaches can help manage anxiety symptoms and restore a sense of balance.

The Treatment Process
The treatment process begins with a thorough assessment of your symptoms, experiences, and personal goals. From there, our team develops a tailored plan that may include individual therapy, medication management, or a combination of both. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is often used to challenge negative thought patterns, while dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) helps clients build emotion regulation skills.
For those who prefer flexibility, we offer online therapy so you can receive care from the comfort of home. This option is ideal for clients with busy schedules, transportation challenges, or those who prefer added privacy. No matter which path you choose, our clinicians will work closely with you to track progress and adjust your care as needed.

What Our Patients Say
My experience with Apogee Behavioral Medicine has been amazing! The providers and office staff are so friendly and helpful and demonstrate a true sense of care. I appreciate that every time I call there is always a kind person on the other end of the phone. From scheduling, to my actual appointment with Dr. Ayers, they have made the entire process as straightforward and easy as possible. I prefer to be seen in-person, but travel for work so it’s comforting to know I have the option to book a virtual appointment, if needed. I’m so grateful for the compassion they have shown me and look forward to their guidance as I learn to manage my anxiety. I feel like I’ve finally found the support system I’ve been searching for.
Google Review from
an ABM Patient
I reached out to several psychiatry groups, some of which never even returned my call. Not only was I able to speak with an actual person, but she scheduled me for an appointment right away. Their office has a very calming feel and I was greeted with a smile and felt safe and welcomed at my appointment. I highly recommend Apogee Behavioral Medicine. They’re truly a wonderful group and their sincerity for patients dealing with mental health is at the forefront of this practice.

FAQs for Counseling & Therapy
In the psychiatric and medical community, there is not a consensus on what causes anxiety. However, there are some common denominators in those who suffer including; genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological commonalities. Genetics plays a role in that some with specific genetic markers are predisposed to developing anxiety. Brain chemistry, or a biological factor, can also contribute to where there are imbalances in neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. Lastly, environmental and psychological factors can underlie anxiety disorders including stressful life events where the body retains memory of abuse, trauma, and transitions, in the form of anxiety.
Therapists can treat anxiety with behavioral therapy including cognitive behavioral therapy which addresses underlying persistent thoughts that make anxiety so crippling. They are also able to teach techniques to help mitigate symptoms of anxiety such as breathing and visualization. Therapists are not able to prescribe medicine, but Apogee Behavioral Medicine has a complete team of psychiatrists and psychotherapists standing by and they can assess your case and provide a full treatment plan.
“Doctors” for anxiety at Apogee Behavioral Medicine are psychiatrists. They are licensed, trained, and experienced in medical interventions for anxiety. Psychiatrists are experts at administering medications that help alleviate symptoms of anxiety by temporarily inhibiting serotonin and stabilizing the nervous system. These interventions can be taken daily or in the instance of extreme duress.
We all face anxiety in our lives and many are able to cope without interventions. Where an anxiety disorder is disrupting our lives or the lives of those we love to the point that they are unable to fulfill duties or responsibilities, medical interventions may be necessary. Only a licensed psychiatrist or doctor can prescribe medicine. Medical interventions are determined upon a diagnosis after a Creyos Health assessment. Contact Apogee Behavioral Medicine if you require an assessment.
According to the Social Security Administration bluebook, Anxiety is considered a disability. If you believe that your anxiety or the anxiety of a loved one makes them unable to perform life’s daily functions, contact Apogee Behavioral Medicine for an assessment.
Cognitive Assessments are tests that help clinicians measure and monitor cognitive health. Some of the conditions a Cognitive Assessment can measure include neurodegenerative disease, brain injury, and cognitive decline due to aging. In the case of anxiety, clinicians may measure neurological function. The test takes about twenty minutes, can be taken remotely on a laptop or tablet, and may be customized to measure certain areas of the brain more effectively. Contact Apogee Behavioral Medicine for a consultation to discuss a Cognitive Assessment.
