    What Is Panic Attacks?

    A panic attack is a sudden wave of intense fear that peaks within minutes, with a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness or a sense of doom. When attacks repeat and fear of the next one shapes your life, it may be panic disorder.

    Types of Panic Attacks

    • Expected Panic Attacks: Attacks triggered by a known fear, such as flying or crowds.
    • Unexpected Panic Attacks: Attacks that seem to come out of nowhere.
    • Panic Disorder: Repeated unexpected attacks plus ongoing worry about future ones.
    • Panic With Agoraphobia: Avoiding places or situations out of fear of having an attack there.

    Panic Attacks Are Terrifying and Highly Treatable

    A panic attack is a sudden surge of intense fear with powerful physical symptoms: racing heart, chest tightness, dizziness, shortness of breath, and a feeling of losing control. Panic disorder develops when the fear of the next attack starts shrinking your life. The good news: panic responds exceptionally well to treatment.

    Our Evidence-Based Treatment Approach

    Panic is maintained by fear of the sensations themselves. Treatment breaks that cycle directly.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Panic

    Learning what panic actually is, why it is not dangerous, and how to respond to early sensations before they escalate.

    Interoceptive Exposure

    Safely and gradually practicing the physical sensations of panic in session so they lose their power to frighten you.

    Nervous System Regulation

    Breathing and grounding skills that genuinely down-regulate the alarm response rather than just distracting from it.

    Medication Management Collaboration

    Coordination with our psychiatric team when medication can reduce attack frequency while therapy does the lasting work.

    Diagnosing Panic Attacks

    Reading about symptoms can help you put words to what you are experiencing, but only a trained mental health professional can diagnose panic attacks. At Atium Health, your first appointment includes a thorough assessment of your history, symptoms and goals, often supported by validated questionnaires. We repeat those measures over time so you and your clinician can see real progress.

    Your provider will also look for anything that may be contributing, such as sleep, medical conditions, medications, substance use or other mental health concerns, so your plan fits the whole picture.

    What Causes Panic Attacks?

    There is rarely a single cause. Most often panic attacks develops from a mix of life experiences and biology.

    Lifestyle and Environmental Factors

    • High or prolonged stress
    • Major life changes
    • Caffeine, nicotine or stimulant use
    • Poor sleep
    • Avoidance that strengthens fear

    Someone may have several or none of these factors and still be affected.

    Biological Factors

    Panic disorder runs in families. Some people have a more sensitive alarm system that misreads normal body sensations as danger. Medical causes such as thyroid or heart conditions should be ruled out.

    Telehealth Treatment for Panic Attacks

    Many people can be assessed and treated for panic attacks through secure video sessions. Research shows telehealth therapy and medication management can be as effective as in person care for many conditions, and it makes it easier to fit treatment into a busy schedule. Atium Health offers telehealth throughout Utah, Arizona, Idaho and Florida.
