Residential Anxiety Treatment Center
A Private Anxiety Treatment Center for Adults Who Need More Than Outpatient Therapy
About Anxiety Disorders
While most of us occasionally feel anxiety or nervousness as we anticipate certain events, an anxiety disorder is something else entirely. It is a brain disorder that practically incapacitates the sufferer with constant, over-the-top worry, fear and panic. The individual with an anxiety disorder may experience obsessive negative thoughts, nightmares, and insomnia, and may be prone to compulsive checking and counting.
Anxiety disorders including generalized anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and trauma-related conditions like PTSD can affect every part of life, from work and school performance to relationships and overall wellbeing. According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions in the U.S., yet they are also highly treatable with the right care.
Do I need treatment for my anxiety?
While some anxiety is normal, no one should have to live with near-constant fear and dread that is out of proportion to the situation. Anxiety disorders are treatable. Whether you need treatment for generalized anxiety disorder, anticipatory anxiety, anxious attachment or any other form of anxiety disorder, the experienced anxiety disorder specialists at Legacy Recovery Center understand what you’re going through and will help.
Residential care may be appropriate if:
- Anxiety has not improved with outpatient therapy or medication alone
- Panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, or avoidance behaviors are disrupting work, school, or relationships
- Anxiety occurs alongside depression, trauma, or substance use
- A structured, supportive environment is needed to stabilize and build coping skills
Our clinical team evaluates each person individually to determine whether residential treatment, a step-down program, or outpatient support is the right fit.
Treating Anxiety with Evidence-Based Therapy
After decades of combined clinical experience, our team has found that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective approaches for treating anxiety disorders. CBT is a form of talk therapy that helps people identify and reframe negative thought patterns, recognize cognitive distortions, and build healthier coping responses. Clients may also benefit from relaxation exercises, behavioral experiments, and structured journaling as part of their treatment plan.
Our psychiatrists, Dr. Roland Segal, MD, and Dr. Ehab Abdallah, oversee each treatment plan to ensure therapy and, where appropriate, medication management work together not in isolation.
A Note for Families
Watching someone you love struggle with anxiety can be difficult, especially when it’s hard to know how to help. Our team works directly with families throughout treatment through family therapy, education on anxiety disorders, and guidance on how to offer support without enabling avoidance or added stress.
