Comprehensive Anxiety Treatment Programs at Recovery Ways
Living with severe anxiety can feel like a constant, exhausting battle against your own mind. It is far more than just everyday stress; it is an overwhelming weight that can disrupt your sleep, strain your relationships, and make even simple daily tasks feel insurmountable. When anxiety begins to dictate how you live your life, finding the right professional support is the first crucial step toward regaining control and finding lasting peace.
At Recovery Ways, we offer a full continuum of comprehensive anxiety treatment programs designed to meet you exactly where you are in your journey. Our Salt Lake City facilities provide a safe, clinical environment for healing, starting with our residential inpatient program. This level of care offers 24/7 clinical supervision, creating a highly structured space that is ideal for individuals with severe anxiety or anyone needing to step completely away from daily stressors to focus entirely on their recovery.
For those seeking intensive anxiety therapy with more flexibility, our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) tracks deliver robust daily clinical support while allowing you to return home in the evenings. We also recognize that many individuals struggling with anxiety face overlapping challenges with depression or substance use. Through our integrated dual-diagnosis program, we treat these co-occurring disorders simultaneouslyâaddressing the complex root causes of your distress rather than simply managing the symptoms.

Anxiety Disorders We Specialize in Treating
When recovering from an anxiety disorder, itâs vital to receive treatment that accounts for your specific diagnosis and symptoms. Anxiety manifests differently for everyone, and a one-size-fits-all approach may not address your unique challenges. Our anxiety counseling in Salt Lake City can treat a range of anxiety disorders, along with co-occurring disorders, allowing for targeted strategies and therapies that are more effective in reducing symptoms and improving quality of life. Some types of anxiety disorders we specialize in treating include:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Individuals suffering from generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) may experience excessive anxiety for months, along with irritability, fatigue, muscle tension, insomnia, difficulty concentrating, and restlessness.
Panic Disorder
Symptoms of panic disorder are panic attacks or unexpected periods of intense fear that can cause an irregular or increased heart rate, trembling, sweating, feeling unable to breathe and impending doom. These tend to cause individuals to avoid places where they have had panic attacks before and worry about when the next attack will occur.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) experience anxiety-inducing thoughts that can only be calmed by engaging in specific behaviors or rituals. They are compulsively repeated behaviors such as hand washing, checking for locked doors, organizing, or counting items that can take over the personâs life. Performing these behaviors brings temporary relief but soon after the anxiety returns.
Social Anxiety Disorder
People struggling with social anxiety feel frightened by social situations or public speaking where they expect to feel rejected, embarrassed, judged, or offend others. They often have difficulty talking to others, experience physical symptoms of anxiety around people, worry for days or weeks before a social event, feel very self-conscious, have difficulty making and keeping new friends, and are very afraid of judgement. Our social anxiety treatment in Utah can help you overcome fears and learn to develop deeper connections.
Phobias
Certain objects, events, and places can create powerful and irrational feelings of fear. Most people struggling with phobic disorders have a specific phobia with several triggers. Depending on the number of and type of triggers, the phobia can take over the personâs life in their attempt to avoid it.

Understanding the Roots of Anxiety
While some anxiety is a natural response to stress, an anxiety disorder is persistent and can interfere with daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. At Recovery Ways, we address the most common underlying causes of anxiety, including:
- Trauma: Healing the “fight or flight” response triggered by past events.
- Substance Use: Breaking the cycle where anxiety leads to use, and use worsens anxiety.
- Burnout & Chronic Stress: Specialized strategies for high-pressure lifestyles.
Symptoms of Anxiety
The symptoms of anxiety disorders will vary based on the type and intensity. Most anxiety disorders include a persistent, excessive fear in situations that are not threatening. Some symptoms experienced across disorders include:
- Lack of energy
- Feelings of dread
- Muscle aches
- Headaches
- Insomnia
- Inability to stay asleep or sleep soundly
- Inability to get out of bed
- Trembling
- Panic attacks with increased heart rate, breathing, and sweating
- Restlessness
- Gastrointestinal issues (nausea, cramping, vomiting)
- Persistent rumination, overthinking and catastrophizing
