Anxiety Treatment Center of Austin

Overcome your anxiety disorder with focused, research-based treatment. Anxiety disorders are some of

The Anxiety Treatment Center of Austin was established by Dr. Diana Damer, a licensed psychologist in Texas and Anxiety Specialist. Each clinician at the Anxiety Treatment Center of Austin is an anxiety specialist, and we work with the full spectrum of anxiety problems. Additionally, we each have areas of particular interest and experience.

Perfectionism can look productive on the outside, but internally it often feels exhausting.

Thoughts like “I should be further by now” or “If I cannot do it perfectly, why try” can quietly fuel anxiety and avoidance. The pressure to perform without mistakes keeps the nervous system in a constant state of alert.

Over time, this can lead to procrastination, burnout, harsh self criticism, and difficulty resting without guilt.

If productivity pressure is impacting your mental health, support can help you untangle achievement from self worth. Learn more at www.anxietyaustin.com 🌿

Healing isn't always linear, and it's not always invisible.

The hard moments you have moved through matter. Growth often leaves marks, and those marks can be reminders of strength, resilience, and survival.

If you are still in the process of healing, support is here when you need it. 🌿

As spring events start filling calendars, social anxiety can feel louder.

More invitations can mean more anticipatory anxiety, overthinking conversations before they happen, and replaying them afterward. Avoiding events may bring short term relief, but it often strengthens the fear long term.

With evidence based support, individuals can gradually approach social situations, reduce safety behaviors, and build confidence through experience.

You don't have to navigate social anxiety alone. Learn more at www.anxietyaustin.com 🌿

During Women’s History Month, it is important to acknowledge how mental health care has evolved over time.

Historically, women’s emotional experiences were often misunderstood or shaped by cultural beliefs rather than evidence based care. Diagnoses like “hysteria,” restrictive treatments such as the “rest cure,” and the dismissal of trauma all reflect a time when women’s mental health was not fully understood.

Over time, research, advocacy, and lived experience have helped shift the field toward more compassionate, informed, and effective care.

Today, modern psychology has increasingly recognized:
👉 gender bias in diagnostic frameworks
👉 the impact of trauma and social context
👉 structural inequalities in mental health care

There is still more work to be done, but progress matters.

You're not the only one navigating anxiety.

Our Anxious in Austin group is a supportive space for adults who struggle with worry, panic, social anxiety, OCD, health anxiety, or other anxiety related challenges. Led by Diana Damer, Ph.D., this group focuses on practical tools and shared connection.

Each week, members learn skills designed to interrupt the cycle of anxiety, including identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, facing avoided situations, communicating effectively, coping with perfectionism, and practicing mindful acceptance of discomfort.

Anxiety can feel isolating. Connecting with others who understand can make a meaningful difference.

In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re recognizing some of the women whose work has helped shape how we understand and treat anxiety and OCD today.

From early research in exposure therapy to the development of evidence based approaches like ERP, these contributions have played a key role in improving outcomes for individuals and families.

Progress in mental health care is ongoing, and so is the impact of the women helping lead it.

A gentle reminder for today.

When your thoughts feel loud or your to-do list feels endless, pause.

Unclench your jaw.

Drop your shoulders.

Take one slow breath in.

And one slow breath out.

You don’t have to solve everything right now. 💛

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) helps individuals gradually face the thoughts, images, situations, or sensations that trigger anxiety while choosing not to engage in compulsions. Over time, this reduces the intensity of fear and breaks the cycle that keeps OCD going.

The goal is not to eliminate uncertainty or force confidence. It is to build tolerance for discomfort and strengthen your ability to respond differently.

ERP is structured, collaborative, and paced in a way that feels manageable with support. If you are living with OCD, effective treatment is available.

Goals do not have to be strict, overwhelming, or all or nothing to be meaningful. Gentle goals leave room for rest, flexibility, and being human.

Especially for individuals navigating anxiety or OCD, pressure driven goals can increase distress and avoidance. A gentler approach focuses on small, sustainable steps that support your nervous system instead of pushing against it.

Progress can look like showing up imperfectly, adjusting expectations, or choosing care over urgency. That still counts.

If goal setting feels hard or discouraging, support can help you find a pace that feels safe and doable. Learn more at www.anxietyaustin.com 💛
