Understanding Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety is more than just stress—it’s a condition that can cause excessive worry, panic attacks, and physical symptoms such as racing thoughts, insomnia, and tension.

We treat a wide range of anxiety disorders, including:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) – Persistent, excessive worry about everyday situations.
Panic Disorder – Sudden episodes of intense fear and physical symptoms (e.g., heart palpitations, shortness of breath).
Social Anxiety Disorder – Intense fear of social situations and performance anxiety.
Health Anxiety (Hypochondria) – Persistent fear of having a serious illness.
Phobias – Extreme fear of specific situations or objects (e.g., heights, flying, public speaking).

Our Anxiety Treatment Approach

At Stillpoint Integrative Psychiatry, we use a comprehensive and individualized approach to treating anxiety, combining medication, therapy, and holistic treatments for the best results.

💊 Medication Management for Anxiety

For many individuals, medication can provide relief from severe anxiety symptoms. We carefully evaluate your needs and prescribe medications only when necessary.

  • Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) (e.g., Prozac, Lexapro, Zoloft) – Common first-line medications for anxiety.
  • Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) (e.g., Effexor, Cymbalta) – For generalized anxiety and panic disorders.
  • Beta Blockers (e.g., Propranolol) – Helps manage physical symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heartbeat.
  • Non-Benzodiazepine Anxiolytics (e.g., Buspirone) – A safer long-term option for chronic anxiety.

Nutritional Psychiatry – Assessing deficiencies in magnesium, Omega-3s, and B vitamins that impact anxiety.
Herbal & Supplement Support – Using evidence-based supplements like ashwagandha, L-theanine, and others.
✔ Mindfulness Practices – Reducing stress response and improving emotional regulation.

This place is amazing. The psychiatrist that I see is awesome. He really listens to concerns. Always gets back to you fairly quick if you send a message also. I wasn’t use to that at my previous Dr. I switched from them to Stillpoint because they had many providers there and they were constantly leaving and I got shuffled around quite a bit and was tired of getting use to one person then the next time I go I might not see them anymore. So there is stability at this office and that’s what I needed. Thanks again for all the help!! I would highly recommend trying them out, you won’t go wrong here!

Andrew has been awesome. After searching for a new psychiatrist in a pinch, he was able to get me in and on a new treatment plan fairly quickly. He listened to my exact needs and was able to find medications to help me immediately. He is very responsive and knowledgeable.

After floating between different psychiatrist for years, Andrew has truly been a breath of fresh air. He actually cares about you as a patient and is not just in it for the money. He quickly responds to all my emails and has great availability with appointments. Definitely would recommend him to anyone.

I had never been to a psychiatrist before meeting Andrew. I was drawn to him for his holistic approach, as I am not a fan of taking medication unless I absolutely need to. I was nervous my first visit but from the very get go, Andrew made the entire process super comfortable and easy. I felt not only heard but understood. I left that first visit looking forward to my next. Would 100% recommend.

I have had an amazing experience with Dr. Jecklin! He is very flexible with availability, is quick to answer emails and messages (which is imperative for a psychiatrist), has tons of knowledge in his field, and truly cares about his patients and their successes. Not only is Dr. Jecklin empathetic and understanding, but he has your best interest, allowing his patients to start with supplements that benefit their health and wellness, to prescribing necessary medications for his patients success. I would recommend Dr. Jecklin’s practice to anyone, due to his wonderful personality and expertise!

Andrew has been very helpful over the last few months by creating a comprehensive treatment plan with a holistic approach. I have felt heard and liked the fact that I was not immediately prescribed something, but was given lifestyle change recommendations and supplements to support my needs. Would definitely recommend!
