Anxiety and Panic
The disabling symptoms of anxiety disorders, including panic attacks and obsessive-compulsive behaviors, can seriously erode a patient’s wellbeing and their ability to function in the world, as well as straining family relationships. Dr. Lowenstein uses both psychiatric and holistic medical tools — including psychotherapy, stress-reduction techniques, medication, and biofeedback – to develop coping techniques to manage the symptoms and build a healthy nervous system to promote long-term relief.
“Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths.“
