Anxiety can make your mind feel like it is always searching for the next problem. Even when nothing is visibly wrong, you may feel tense, restless, distracted, or unable to settle.
You may replay conversations, prepare for every possible outcome, avoid situations that feel overwhelming, or struggle to enjoy time with the people around you. From the outside, you may appear calm and capable. Inside, your thoughts and body may rarely feel at rest.
At Claritiv Health, we provide private, individualized care for adults living with anxiety in Jackson and throughout West Tennessee. We begin by understanding how anxiety affects your life, what you have already tried, and which care options may be clinically appropriate for you.
Anxiety is a normal response to stress, uncertainty, or potential danger. It can help you prepare, stay alert, or respond to a difficult situation.
An anxiety disorder is different from occasional worry. Professional care may be appropriate when anxiety is persistent, difficult to control, out of proportion to the situation, or interfering with daily life.
Anxiety symptoms can appear in different ways, including ongoing worry, panic, fear in social situations, or avoidance. You do not need to know which description fits before seeking care.
A psychiatric evaluation can help us understand your symptoms and determine what may be contributing to them.
Anxiety is not only something that happens in your thoughts. It can affect your body, behavior, relationships, sleep, concentration, and ability to feel present.
You may experience:
Anxiety can also make ordinary responsibilities feel more complicated. You may overprepare for simple tasks, put off decisions, withdraw from people, or feel exhausted from trying to keep your thoughts under control.
Some adults continue working, parenting, caring for others, and meeting expectations while struggling privately.
Your ability to function does not mean you are not struggling.
Anxiety treatment should reflect the symptoms you are experiencing, how they affect your life, your previous care, and your individual needs.
We provide several care options for eligible adults with anxiety.
Every patient journey begins with a psychiatric evaluation.
We review your symptoms, psychiatric and medical history, current medications, substance use, previous treatment experiences, and goals. We also consider whether other mental health concerns, medications, substance use, or health factors may be affecting your symptoms.
You do not need to arrive with a specific diagnosis or know which service to request.
Medication Management may include reviewing your current prescriptions, discussing medications you have tried before, identifying side effects or remaining symptoms, and considering whether changes may be appropriate.
Medication can be one part of anxiety care, but it is not treated as an automatic or one-size-fits-all answer. Decisions depend on your symptoms, health history, current medications, previous responses, and preferences.
Do not stop or change a psychiatric medication without guidance from the clinician who prescribes it.
Talk Therapy can help you better understand the thoughts, behaviors, experiences, and patterns that may be keeping anxiety active.
Depending on your needs, care may draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-focused approaches. Therapy may help you recognize triggers, respond differently to anxious thoughts, reduce avoidance, build coping skills, and practice more useful ways of handling distress.
The approach used will depend on your symptoms, goals, and clinical evaluation.
IV Ketamine Infusion Therapy may be considered for eligible adults with anxiety when clinically appropriate.
Ketamine is FDA-approved as an anesthetic. Its use for anxiety and other mental health conditions is off-label.
Research into ketamine for anxiety disorders is still developing. Small studies have reported short-term reductions in anxiety symptoms in some treatment-resistant anxiety populations, but the evidence is more limited than it is for treatment-resistant depression.
Results vary, and no response or timeline can be promised. A diagnosis of anxiety does not automatically make someone a candidate for IV ketamine.
You do not need to have the right language for what you are feeling before reaching out.
Start by telling us:
We use that information to develop individualized recommendations.
For one person, care may center on Talk Therapy. For another, Medication Management may be appropriate. An eligible adult may be considered for IV Ketamine Infusion Therapy after evaluation.
Not every patient needs the same treatment. Our goal is to understand what makes clinical sense for you.
Professional care may be appropriate when anxiety is persistent, difficult to control, or interfering with your sleep, work, relationships, responsibilities, or ability to participate in daily life.
You do not need to wait until anxiety becomes unmanageable before reaching out.
No. You do not need to know which anxiety disorder you may have or arrive with a diagnosis.
A psychiatric evaluation helps us understand your symptoms, history, current medications, previous care, and the factors that may be contributing to your anxiety.
Yes. Anxiety may be connected to physical symptoms such as muscle tension, sweating, shakiness, a racing heartbeat, stomach discomfort, dizziness, fatigue, or difficulty sleeping.
Physical symptoms can also have medical causes. An individual evaluation is important when symptoms are new, severe, or unexplained.
Talk Therapy may help you recognize patterns that contribute to anxiety, develop coping skills, reduce avoidance, and respond differently to distressing thoughts or situations.
The therapy approach used will depend on your symptoms, goals, and clinical needs.
Not necessarily. Medication may be appropriate for some adults, while others may use Talk Therapy or another care approach.
Your psychiatric evaluation helps us determine which options may fit your individual needs.
No. Ketamine is FDA-approved as an anesthetic. Its use for anxiety is off-label, and the evidence remains limited.
We only consider IV Ketamine Infusion Therapy for eligible adults after an individual psychiatric evaluation.
Yes. Anxiety and depression can occur together, and symptoms may overlap or affect one another.
A psychiatric evaluation can help clarify what you are experiencing and guide an individualized care plan.
Previous care that did not provide enough relief does not mean there are no other options.
We review what you have tried, how you responded, what helped, what did not, and any concerns or side effects before discussing what may be appropriate next.
