You may benefit from structured treatment if you notice:


Daily impact. Anxiety is interfering with sleep, work, school, parenting, or your relationships.

Physical symptoms. Panic, chest tightness, trembling, stomach upset, or muscle tension that will not ease.

Avoidance. You are skipping places, people, or conversations to keep the anxiety down.

Looping worry. The what-ifs keep running even when you know you are safe.

Things are getting harder. Symptoms are building despite self-help or previous therapy.

If any of this sounds familiar, an assessment is a low-pressure place to start. Nothing is decided in one conversation.

Types of Anxiety We See in Women

Anxiety wears different faces. Naming yours is not about putting a label on you. It helps your clinician choose the right approach from the start.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Worry that spreads across everything at once. Money, health, work, the people you love. It rarely switches off, and it is exhausting to carry.

Panic Disorder
Sudden waves of intense fear with a racing heart, shortness of breath, or a sense that something terrible is about to happen. Many women describe fearing the next attack as much as the attack itself.

Social Anxiety
Dread around being watched, judged, or found wanting. It can shrink a life quietly, one declined invitation at a time.

Specific Phobias
Intense fear of a particular thing or situation, strong enough that avoiding it starts shaping your choices.

Health Anxiety
Persistent fear about your body and what a symptom might mean. Reassurance helps for an hour, then the worry returns.

Perinatal and Postpartum Anxiety
Anxiety during pregnancy or after birth, often tangled up with guilt about feeling this way at all. It is more common than most women are told.

Anxiety Through a Woman’s Life Stages

Anxiety rarely stays the same across a lifetime. It shifts with hormones, roles, and the weight a woman is carrying at a given moment. Care that ignores that is only doing half the job.

The early adult years. School, first jobs, and the pressure to have it figured out. Anxiety here often looks like perfectionism and overwork rather than obvious distress.

Pregnancy and postpartum. Hormonal shifts, broken sleep, and a new kind of responsibility can turn background worry into something much louder. We support women through this alongside our postpartum depression care.

The caregiving years. Holding a job, a household, aging parents, and children at once. Many women only notice how anxious they are when their body finally makes them stop.

Perimenopause and beyond. Sleep changes, mood changes, and anxiety that seems to arrive from nowhere. Our health and fitness coach holds certifications in perimenopausal and menopausal coaching, so this season gets taken seriously rather than waved off.

Care for what comes with anxiety. Many women live with anxiety alongside depression, trauma, or substance use. Your treatment plan addresses those together, in one coordinated outpatient team, rather than sending you to separate providers who never speak to each other.

Mind and body together. Somatic therapy and mindfulness help your nervous system settle, which is often what makes CBT and DBT skills actually hold up outside the therapy room.

Practice in good company. Small, women-only groups take the edge off the isolation and make skill-building feel less exposing.

How We Approach Anxiety

Anxiety often has roots that skills alone do not reach. When it is tied to past trauma, coping tools can help a woman get through the week while the thing underneath stays untouched. That is why we pair skills-based work like CBT and DBT with trauma-focused therapy such as EMDR, and why somatic and mindfulness practice sits alongside both. The aim is not just a quieter week. It is a nervous system that has somewhere safer to land.

When Anxiety and Substance Use Happen Together

A glass of wine to quiet the racing thoughts. Something to help you sleep. For a lot of women, drinking or using starts as anxiety management and slowly becomes its own problem, which then makes the anxiety worse. It is a loop, and it is a common one.

Treating one and ignoring the other rarely holds. Our team addresses both in the same plan, with the same clinicians, so nothing gets handed off and lost. If substance use is part of your picture, you can say so at your assessment without worrying about how it will land.

Our Anxiety Treatment Programs

Anxiety does not look the same in every woman, so we offer three outpatient levels of care. Your clinician helps you choose the one that fits both your symptoms and the rest of your life.

Level
What it involves
Good fit for

PHP
Partial Hospitalization

Learn more ↗

Our most structured outpatient level. Daytime programming with individual therapy, group work, skills practice, and psychiatric medication management.
Women whose anxiety is making daily life hard to manage, or who are stepping down from a higher level of care.

IOP
Intensive Outpatient

Learn more ↗

Structured therapy and group support on a lighter weekly schedule, so treatment fits around the rest of your life.
Women who need real structure but also need to keep working, studying, or caring for family.

OP
Outpatient Program

Learn more ↗

Continued therapy and relapse-prevention skills at a lower weekly commitment.
Women stepping down from PHP or IOP, or holding onto progress they have already made.

Your exact schedule is set with your clinician after your assessment. Supportive housing is available alongside PHP and IOP if you would feel steadier with somewhere calm to come home to.

Beyond Talk Therapy

Anxiety lives in the body as much as the mind. Alongside therapy, our program includes practices led by credentialed practitioners who work with the physical side of it. These sit beside your clinical care, not instead of it.

Soundbath and Mindfulness
Led by a board certified behavior analyst who is also a certified yoga and mindfulness teacher. Sessions build self-regulation you can use when the room gets loud.

Breathwork
Guided by a bilingual 500-hour registered yoga teacher trained in trauma-informed facilitation and nervous system work. Breath is the fastest lever most women have.

Nutrition Support
A registered dietitian nutritionist with a background in psychology, working with women on emotional eating and the relationship between food, mood, and recovery.

Movement and Fitness
A NASM-certified trainer and wellness coach with specialized certifications in women’s fitness and menopausal coaching. Movement, coached with patience and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions About Anxiety Treatment

Is treatment covered by insurance?

Many major plans cover outpatient care for anxiety, and coverage varies by plan. The fastest way to know is to verify your insurance. We will review your benefits and explain what your plan covers and what to expect, and a woman from our admissions team will get back to you within 24 hours. Sol does not accept Medicaid or Medicare.

How much does anxiety treatment cost?

Cost depends on your level of care and your insurance benefits, so there is no single price we can post honestly. Verify your insurance and we will walk you through your coverage and what to expect, usually within one business day.

What should I expect during my first appointment?

Your first appointment is a confidential assessment with our clinical team. We will talk through your anxiety symptoms, your history, and what you want treatment to change, then build a plan around that. It is a conversation, not a test, and you set the pace.

How long does anxiety treatment typically take?

Length depends on your symptoms, your goals, and the level of care you start in. Your clinician reviews your progress with you regularly and adjusts the plan as things change, so you are never guessing about where you are in the process.

Is anxiety treatment effective?

Therapies like CBT, DBT, and EMDR are widely used for anxiety because they give you concrete skills and a way to work through what is driving the symptoms. Results vary from person to person, which is why your plan is built around your history, your goals, and a pace that feels safe.

What are the benefits of outpatient anxiety treatment?

Outpatient care means you get structured support while staying in your own home and routine. You keep working, studying, or parenting, and you practice new skills in the places where anxiety actually shows up, which is usually where they stick best.

Can I continue working while in treatment?

Our IOP is built to work around a schedule, which is why many women choose it while they are working, studying, or caring for family. Talk with our admissions team about what your week looks like and we will find a fit.

Do you treat anxiety that occurs with other conditions?

Yes. Many women come to us with anxiety alongside depression, trauma-related conditions, or substance use concerns. Your plan addresses those together in one coordinated outpatient team rather than treating them separately.

What makes your program different?

We are women-only, with a maximum of 25 clients at a time, so care stays personal. Our founder and Chief Clinical Officer is a licensed clinician who built the program around trauma-informed care, and our therapy menu spans eleven modalities including EMDR, DBT, CBT, somatic, and holistic work. Supportive housing is available if you want extra stability while you are in treatment.
