What doctor should I see for panic attacks?
Hello! Panic attacks can be very difficult to deal with, especially if they interfere with our ability to socialize and be productive. The 2 main ways to treat panic attacks are with psychotropic medication and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The clinician that you see ideally should have a focus or experience in treating anxiety disorders using both or these types of treatment. Psychiatrists such as myself can both prescribe medication and use CBT to treat panic attacks. You can also split treatment between a psychiatrist who prescribes medication and a therapist who specializes in CBT. You can feel free to contact my office to see how I might be able to help you. Sincerely, Eric Li, MD READ MORE
