Anxiety

Our Approach to Anxiety

Anxiety is everywhere and sometimes feels like too big a word to fully grasp.

At Synaptec, we try to simplify and clarify the problem. Our tools are designed to rule out and better understand symptoms that mimic anxiety such as ADHD or Depression.

A little bit of anxiety is often helpful, but we are assessing whether your anxiety is functional or faulty. 

PLEASE NOTE:  Synaptec assessments are only the first step to a complete diagnosis and will screen for risk for a particular mental health issue, such as ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Gaming Addiction and Problematic Use of the Internet.  To confirm a diagnosis, please begin by sharing your Synaptec assessment results with your doctor or mental health provider.
